Investigation of a Listeria monocytogenes Chromosomal Immigration Control Region Reveals Diverse Restriction Modification Systems with Complete Sequence Type Conservation
MICROORGANISMS, 11(3).
author keywords: Listeria; restriction modification system; immigration control region; whole genome sequencing; chromosomal hotspot
TL;DR:
Analysis of L. monocytogenes genomes indicates that the ICR has a high propensity for RM systems which are intraclonaly conserved and may impact bacteriophage susceptibility as well as ST emergence and stability.

Tetracycline resistance in Listeria monocytogenes and L. innocua from wild black bears (Ursus americanus) in the United States is mediated by novel transposable elements
Environmental Microbiology, 89(11).
Ed(s): C. Dozois
author keywords: Listeria monocytogenes; Listeria; foodborne pathogens; antibiotic resistance; tetracyclines; bear; genome analysis; environmental microbiology; transposons
TL;DR:
The greater prevalence and diversity of tetracycline resistance elements among bear-derived non-pathogenic Listeria strains suggest the potential of the latter to serve as reservoirs for retention and diversification of AMR determinants in this wildlife host and warrant their further monitoring and study.

Horizontal Gene Transfer and Loss of Serotype-Specific Genes in Listeria monocytogenes Can Lead to Incorrect Serotype Designations with a Commonly-Employed Molecular Serotyping Scheme
Brown, P., Kucerova, Z., Gorski, L., Chen, Y., Ivanova, M., Leekitcharoenphon, P., … Kathariou, S. (2022, December 6). (K. Chousalkar, Ed.). MICROBIOLOGY SPECTRUM, Vol. 12.
Ed(s): K. Chousalkar
author keywords: Listeria monocytogenes; PCR; serotype; foodborne pathogens; horizontal gene transfer
MeSH headings : Pregnancy; Female; Humans; Aged; Listeria monocytogenes / genetics; Serogroup; Serotyping; Gene Transfer, Horizontal; Listeriosis
TL;DR:
Serotyping remains extensively employed in Listeria epidemiologic investigations, and a multiplex PCR-based serotyping scheme is widely used, however, the PCR gene targets can be lost or gained via horizontal gene transfer, leading to novel PCR profiles without known serotype designations or to incorrect serotype assignments.

Harnessing Whole Genome Sequence Data for Facility-Specific Signatures for Listeria monocytogenes: A Case Study With Turkey Processing Plants in the United States
FRONTIERS IN SUSTAINABLE FOOD SYSTEMS, 5.
author keywords: Listeria monocytogenes; inlA; whole genome sequencing; turkey processing plant; persistence; plant-specific signatures; cgMLST; wgMLST
TL;DR:
Deploying whole genome sequencing data for intra-sample strain analysis allows for a more complete environmental surveillance of L. monocytogenes in food processing facilities, reducing the risk of failing to detect strains that may be clinically relevant and potentially novel.

Use of Bacteriophage Amended with CRISPR-Cas Systems to Combat Antimicrobial Resistance in the Bacterial Foodborne Pathogen Listeria monocytogenes
(P. Brown, Ed.) [Review of ]. ANTIBIOTICS-BASEL, 10(3).
author keywords: L; monocytogenes; antimicrobial resistance; CRISPR; listeriaphages
TL;DR:
Developing effective tools for the control and elimination of L. monocytogenes, including strains with antimicrobial resistance, is of the utmost importance to prevent further dissemination of AMR in this pathogen.

Whole Genome Sequence Analysis of Phage-Resistant Listeria monocytogenes Serotype 1/2a Strains from Turkey Processing Plants
PATHOGENS, 10(2).
author keywords: Listeria; bacteriophage; phage resistance; whole genome sequencing; food processing plant; InlA; serotype 1/2a; wall teichoic acid
TL;DR:
Using a specific set of recombinant phage protein probes, it was discovered that phage-resistant strains lacked one or both of the serogroup 1/2-specific wall teichoic acid carbohydrate decorations, N-acetylglucosamine and rhamnose.

Listeria monocytogenes at the human–wildlife interface: black bears ( Ursus americanus ) as potential vehicles for Listeria
Microbial Biotechnology, 13(3), 706–721.
MeSH headings : Animals; Animals, Wild / microbiology; Listeria monocytogenes / isolation & purification; Listeria monocytogenes / physiology; Listeriosis / epidemiology; Listeriosis / microbiology; Listeriosis / transmission; Southeastern United States / epidemiology; Ursidae / microbiology
TL;DR:
The results suggest that the ursine host may preferentially select for L. monocytogenes of clinically relevant lineages over the diverse listerial populations in the environment, and highlight the public health significance of the human–wildlife interface.

Penicillin-binding protein encoded by pbp4 is involved in mediating copper stress in Listeria monocytogenes
FEMS MICROBIOLOGY LETTERS, 364(20).
author keywords: Listeria monocytogenes; copper homeostasis; virulence; biofilm; penicillin-binding protein; beta-lactam antibiotic resistance
MeSH headings : Biofilms / drug effects; Copper / metabolism; DNA Transposable Elements; Disease Outbreaks; Humans; Listeria monocytogenes / genetics; Listeria monocytogenes / metabolism; Listeriosis / epidemiology; Listeriosis / microbiology; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; Mutation / genetics; Penicillin-Binding Proteins / genetics; Penicillin-Binding Proteins / metabolism; Plasmids / genetics; Virulence / drug effects; beta-Lactamase Inhibitors / pharmacology; beta-Lactams / metabolism
TL;DR:
Findings provide the first evidence for the role of a PBP in copper tolerance of L. monocytogenes and suggest that pbp4 may be a suitable target to enable the use of lower levels of copper or enhance the effectiveness of levels currently in use.
