Short Communication: Diphtheria Toxin Repressor (dtxR) Gene-based Genetic Diversity of Corynebacterium diphtheriae isolated in Jakarta, Indonesia, 2018-2019
Background and Objective: In Indonesia, diphtheria cases caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae are still occurring until today. One of the causes is probably the diphtheria toxin repressor (dtxR) gene which influences toxin expression. Therefore, in this study the characterization of the gene was performed to determine the mutations that affect the DtxR protein. Methods: The dtxR genes of ...
متن کاملTetracycline resistance of Corynebacterium diphtheriae isolated from diphtheria patients in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Of 133 Corynebacterium diphtheriae isolates from diphtheria patients in Jakarta, Indonesia, 86% were resistant to greater than or equal to 32 micrograms of tetracycline per ml. All isolates were sensitive to ampicillin, cephalothin, chloramphenicol, clindamycin, penicillin, erythromycin, and kanamycin. The general resistance of C. diphtheriae to tetracycline in this part of Indonesia appears to...
متن کاملTermite Diversity in Urban Landscape, South Jakarta, Indonesia
The population of South Jakarta, a city within the Province of Jakarta Capital Region, is increasing annually, and the development of land into building causes termite diversity loss. The aim of this research was to determine the diversity of subterranean termite species and their distribution in South Jakarta and to evaluate the soil profile termite habitat. This study was conducted in South J...

in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...
Metal stoichiometry and functional studies of the diphtheria toxin repressor.
Diphtheria toxin repressor (DtxR) is a transition metal ion-activated repressor in Corynebacterium diphtheriae. DtxR is an iron sensor; metal-bound DtxR represses transcription of genes downstream of the tox operator. Wild-type DtxR [DtxR(wt)] and several mutant forms were overexpressed and purified from Escherichia coli. DtxR was isolated without bound metal. Metal reconstitution gave a bindin...
