Chromosomal features of Escherichia coli serotype O2:K2, an avian pathogenic E. coli
Escherichia coli causing infection outside the gastrointestinal system are referred to as extra-intestinal pathogenic E. coli. Avian pathogenic E. coli is a subgroup of extra-intestinal pathogenic E. coli and infections due to avian pathogenic E. coli have major impact on poultry production economy and welfare worldwide. An almost defining characteristic of avian pathogenic E. coli is the carri...
متن کاملpapA gene of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli.
P fimbrial adhesins may be associated with the virulence of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC). However, most APECs are unable to express P fimbriae even when they are grown under conditions that favor P fimbrial expression. This failure can be explained by the complete absence of the pap operon or the presence of an incomplete pap operon in Pap-negative APEC strains. In the present study...
متن کاملComplete Genomic Sequence of an Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli Strain of Serotype O7:HNT
Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is associated with colibacillosis in poultry. Here, we present the first complete sequence of an APEC strain of the O7:HNT serotype and ST73 sequence type, isolated from a broiler with cellulitis. Complete genomes of APEC with distinct genetic backgrounds may be useful for comparative analysis.
متن کاملUnique chromosomal regions associated with virulence of an avian pathogenic Escherichia coli strain.
The avian pathogenic Escherichia coli strain (chi)7122 (serotype O78:K80:H9) causes airsacculitis and colisepticemia in chickens. To identify genes associated with avian disease, a genomic subtraction technique was performed between strain (chi)7122 and the E. coli K-12 strain (chi)289. The DNA isolated using this method was found only in strain (chi)7122 and was used to identify cosmid clones ...
متن کاملAvian Pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) - an update on the control
Escherichia coli is a common inhabitant of the gastrointestinal tracts of humans and animals. Commensal E. coli, designated as nonpathogenic, are considered to be the majority. This microorganism can be divided into two large groups: pathogenic and commensal E. coli. The pathogenic group is characterized by two more pathotypes: diarrheagenic E. coli (DEC) (with eight subpathotypes) and extraint...
