production and purfication of heat-stable (st) enterotoxin of yersinia enterocolitica
since the heat-stable enterotoxin (st) produced by yersinia enterocolitica is similar to enterotoxin production by e. coli, it is probably classified among toxinogenic bacteria. the culture filtrate of st-producing strains of y. enterocolitica is able to activate guanylate cyclase and to increase fluid accumulation action of cylic guanosin 3', 5' - monophosphate (cgmp) in sucking mous...
متن کاملCitrobacter freundii produces an 18-amino-acid heat-stable enterotoxin identical to the 18-amino-acid Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin (ST Ia).
We purified and sequenced the heat-stable enterotoxin produced by Citrobacter freundii. The toxin was detected during purification by reaction with monoclonal antibody to Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin. The C. freundii toxin amino acid sequence was identical to that of the 18-amino-acid heat-stable enterotoxin (STa) produced by toxigenic E. coli.
متن کاملPlasmid-mediated properties of a heat-stable enterotoxin-producing Escherichia coli associated with infantile diarrhea.
The plasmid mediation and transmissibility of heat-stable enterotoxin production and multiple antibiotic resistance have been demonstrated for Escherichia coli O78:K80:H12 epidemiologically incriminated in a hospital outbreak of infantile diarrhea. The conjugal transfer of a 67 X 10(6) - and a 30 X 10(6)-dalton plasmid was associated with the transfer of resistances and enterotoxin production, ...
متن کاملStructural Characterisation of the E. coli Heat Stable Enterotoxin STh
E. coli heat stable enterotoxin STa is an agonist of the membrane guanylate cyclase C whose endogenous ligands are the peptide hormones guanylin and uroguanylin. Whereas these peptides contain only two disulfide bonds, STa is stabilized by one additional disulfide bridge. We chemically synthesized the enterotoxin STh that originates from the E. coli strain found in humans, and we determined its...
متن کاملProtection in rats immunized with Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin.
Rats immunized with a semipurified preparation of the Escherichia coli heat-stable (ST) enterotoxin conjugated with a protein carrier were protected against challenge with semipurified or purified ST and viable organisms of multiple heterologous serotypes that produce only ST (LT-/ST+), but they were not protected against heal-labile (LT) toxin or viable strains which produce LT either alone (L...
