Draft genome sequence of the bacteriophage vB_Eco_slurp01. (2016)
Journal Article
Sazinas, P., Smith, C., Suhaimi, A., Hobman, J. L., Dodd, C. E., & Millard, A. (2016). Draft genome sequence of the bacteriophage vB_Eco_slurp01. Genome Announcements, 4(6), https://doi.org/10.1128/genomeA.01111-16

Bacteriophage vB_Eco_slurp01 was isolated from porcine feces using Escherichia coli MG1655 as a host. With a genome size of 348 kb, vB_Eco_slurp01 is one of the largest bacteriophages isolated to date.

SilE is an intrinsically disordered periplasmic ‘molecular sponge' involved in bacterial silver resistance (2016)
Journal Article
Asiani, K. R., Williams, H. E. L., Bird, L., Jenner, M., Searle, M. S., Hobman, J. L., …Soultanas, P. (2016). SilE is an intrinsically disordered periplasmic ‘molecular sponge' involved in bacterial silver resistance. Molecular Microbiology, 101(5), 731-742. https://doi.org/10.1111/mmi.13399

Ag+ resistance was initially found on the Salmonella enetrica serovar Typhimurium multi-resistance plasmid pMG101 from burns patients in 1975. The putative model of Ag+ resistance, encoded by the sil operon from pMG101, involves export of Ag+ via an...

Mathematical modelling of antimicrobial resistance in agricultural waste highlights importance of gene transfer rate (2016)
Journal Article
Baker, M., Hobman, J. L., Dodd, C. E., Ramsden, S. J., & Stekel, D. J. (2016). Mathematical modelling of antimicrobial resistance in agricultural waste highlights importance of gene transfer rate. FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 92(4), Article fiw040. https://doi.org/10.1093/femsec/fiw040

Antimicrobial resistance is of global concern. Most antimicrobial use is in agriculture; manures and slurry are especially important because they contain a mix of bacteria, including potential pathogens, antimicrobial resistance genes and antimicrobi...

Multidrug resistant, extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli isolated from a dairy farm (2016)
Journal Article
Ibrahim, D. R., Dodd, C. E. R., Stekel, D. J., Ramsden, S. J., & Hobman, J. L. (2016). Multidrug resistant, extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli isolated from a dairy farm. FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 92(4), Article fiw013. https://doi.org/10.1093/femsec/fiw013

Escherichia coli strains were isolated from a single dairy farm as a sentinel organism for the persistence of antibiotic resistance genes in the farm environment. Selective microbiological media were used to isolate 126 E. coli isolates from slurry a...
