Genome sequencing Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a strain of the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from sputum, urine, wounds, known for its antibiotic resistance, biofilm-forming ability, and production of virulence factors like elastases and pyocyanin. This strain is relevant in the study of chronic infections, particularly in immunocompromised patients such as those with cystic fibrosis. Genomic data can provide insights into the molecular mechanisms of resistance and pathogenicity, aiding in the development of new therapeutic strategies.
