Clostridium subterminale is a Clostridium species that has been rarely isolated in the blood of immunocompromised patients. We report a case of C. subterminale septicemia in an immunocompetent patient who presented with acute mediastinitis following spontaneous esophageal rupture.

Although uncommon, infection caused by may be life threatening particularly in immunocompromised patients. We report here a rare presentation of a patient with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and haemophagocytic syndrome associated with bacteraemia. The management of the patient is described as well as a review of medical literature.

is an anaerobic spore-forming bacterium rarely isolated in human infections. This case study presents a necrotizing infection stemming from a dental abscess that progressed into sepsis, a small pericardial effusion, moderate bilateral pulmonary effusions, and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. The management of the infection, along with other relevant cases is discussed.

Substrate efflux by ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, which play a major role in multidrug resistance, entails the ATP-powered interconversion between transporter intermediates. Despite recent progress in structure elucidation, a number of intermediates have yet to be visualized and mechanistically interpreted. Here, we combine cryogenic-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), double electron-electron resonance spectroscopy and molecular dynamics simulations to profile a previously unobserved intermediate of BmrCD, a heterodimeric multidrug ABC exporter from Bacillus subtilis.

Taxono-genomics is an innovative concept coined for the description of new bacterial species. Phenotypic characteristics were combined with a genomic approach to describe two new species within the Clostridium senso stricto genus: Clostridium culturomicium strain CL-6 and Clostridium jeddahitimonense strain CL-2, both isolated from the gut microbiota of an obese man from Saudi Arabia. Strains CL-6 and CL-2 shared a similarity of 98.
