Common sialylated glycan in Actinobacillus suis.
A sialylated oligosaccharide was identified in four representative strains of the Gram-negative swine pathogen, Actinobacillus suis. As characterized, the glycan consists of a free oligosaccharide with a N-acetyl-lactosamine-like backbone decorated with sialic acid, phosphoethanolamine (PEA) and O-acetyl units: 9-O-Ac-Neu5Ac-(2-->6)-beta-d-Galp-(1-->4)-beta-d-6-O-Ac-GlcpNAc-(1-->3)-[PEA-->6]-be...
متن کاملProduction of Apx toxins by field strains of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and Actinobacillus suis.
The three Apx toxins of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae have potential value for use in vaccines and diagnostic tests which will be species specific instead of serotype specific, provided that the Apx toxins are species specific and all field strains produce these toxins. We examined 114 A. pleuropneumoniae field strains and found that they secreted either ApxI, ApxII, ApxI and ApxII, or ApxII ...
متن کاملGenome Sequence of Actinobacillus suis Type Strain ATCC 33415T
The assembled and annotated genome of Actinobacillus suis ATCC 33415(T) is reported here. The 2,501,598-bp genome encodes 2,246 open reading frames (ORFs) with strain variable incursion of an integrative conjugative element into a tRNA locus. Comparative analysis of the deduced gene set should inform our understanding of pathogenesis, genomic plasticity, and serotype variation.
متن کاملMolecular characterization of an RTX toxin determinant from Actinobacillus suis.
RTX cytolysins are a family of calcium-dependent, pore-forming, secreted toxins found in a variety of gram-negative bacteria. The prototypical member of this family is the alpha-hemolysin of Escherichia coli. The RTX genetic determinants from seven members of the family Pasteurellaceae, Pasteurella haemolytica, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, and A. pleuropneumoniae serotypes 1,5,7, and 9...
متن کاملFirst Human Case of Meningitis and Sepsis in a Child Caused by Actinobacillus suis or Actinobacillus equuli.
We report the first human case of meningitis and sepsis caused in a child by Actinobacillus suis or A. equuli, a common opportunistic pathogen of swine or horses, respectively. Identification was performed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry and real-time PCR assay. A previous visit to a farm was suspected as the source of infection.
