| draft genome sequences of eight bacteria isolated from the indoor environment: staphylococcus capitis strain h36, s. capitis strain h65, s. cohnii strain h62, s. hominis strain h69, microbacterium sp. strain h83, mycobacterium iranicum strain h39, plantibacter sp. strain h53, and pseudomonas oryzihabitans strain h72. | we report here the draft genome sequences of eight bacterial strains of the genera staphylococcus, microbacterium, mycobacterium, plantibacter, and pseudomonas. these isolates were obtained from aerosol sampling of bathrooms of five residences in the san francisco bay area. taxonomic classifications as well as the genome sequence and gene annotation of the isolates are described. as part of the "built environment reference genome" project, these isolates and associated genome data provide valuab ... | 2017 | 28163826 |
| mycobacterium iranicum sp. nov., a rapidly growing scotochromogenic species isolated from clinical specimens on three different continents. | the isolation and characterization of a novel, rapidly growing, scotochromogenic mycobacterial species is reported. eight independent strains were isolated from clinical specimens from six different countries of the world, two in iran, two in italy and one in each of following countries: greece, the netherlands, sweden and the usa. interestingly, two of the strains were isolated from cerebrospinal fluid. the strains were characterized by rapid growth and presented orange-pigmented scotochromogen ... | 2013 | 22843713 |
| isolation of a novel strain of mycobacterium iranicum from a woman in the united states. | a novel strain of mycobacterium iranicum, a recently described nontuberculous mycobacterium species, was isolated from the sputum of a woman. the source of infection was not determined; however, fomite transmission of inhaled aerosolized secretions from her husband's sleep apnea equipment was historically possible. | 2013 | 23224096 |

| first whole-genome sequence of mycobacterium iranicum, a newly reported mycobacterial species. | mycobacterium iranicum is a new species of nontuberculous mycobacterium reported in 2013. here, we describe the first whole-genome sequence of this species, that of m. iranicum strain um_tjl, isolated from a patient in malaysia. | 2013 | 24072861 |
| comparative genomic analysis of mycobacterium iranicum um_tjl against representative mycobacterial species suggests its environmental origin. | mycobacterium iranicum is a newly reported mycobacterial species. we present the first comparative study of m. iranicum um_tjl and other mycobacteria. we found m. iranicum to have a close genetic association with environmental mycobacteria infrequently associated with human infections. nonetheless, um_tjl is also equipped with many virulence genes (some of which appear to be the consequence of transduction-related gene transfer) that have been identified in established human pathogens. taken all ... | 2014 | 25417557 |
| mycobacterium iranicum bacteremia and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis: a case report. | mycobacterium iranicum has recently been recognised as an opportunistic human pathogen. although infectious conditions represent frequent triggers for hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections are rarely associated with this entity. to this date, m. iranicum infection has never been reported in france, has never been associated with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and has never been found to be multi-resistant on standardized antimicrobial susceptibility tes ... | 2017 | 28789664 |

| successful treatment of peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis due to mycobacterium iranicum. | a 68-year-old man on peritoneal dialysis (pd) was hospitalized with the clinical picture of peritonitis. the patient was diagnosed with peritonitis caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria (ntm) according to positive ziehl-neelsen staining and negative mycobacterium tuberculosis polymerase chain reaction results. oral levofloxacin and clarithromycin, and later intraperitoneal imipenem were started. according to the anti-ntm susceptibility test results, oral minocycline was administered. the patient ... | 2016 | 27432106 |
