Genomic rearrangements associated with antigenic variation in Campylobacter coli.
Campylobacter coli and Campylobacter jejuni share a limited number of highly conserved DNA sequences with members of the family Enterobacteriaceae. One of these sequences was cloned from C. coli VC167, and the region of homology to the enteric sequences was determined to be confined to a 700-base-pair region. The DNA represented in this clone undergoes a programmed, reversible rearrangement in ...
متن کاملGenomic variation between Campylobacter jejuni isolates associated with milk-borne-disease outbreaks.
Bacterial genome sequencing has led to the development of new approaches for the analysis of food-borne epidemics and the exploration of the relatedness of outbreak-associated isolates and their separation from nonassociated isolates. Using Illumina technology, we sequenced a total of six isolates (two from patients, two from raw bulk milk, and two from dairy cattle) associated with a milk-born...
متن کاملHigh genetic variation in the multidrug transporter cmeB gene in Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli.
OBJECTIVES This study was conducted to examine the genetic variation occurring in the cmeB gene encoding the transporter component of the CmeABC efflux pump. METHODS Expression of the CmeABC pump in 21 strains of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli was studied by western-blot analysis. MIC determination was conducted in the presence or absence of an efflux pump inhibitor (EPI). Inacti...
متن کاملGenomic heterogeneity and O-antigenic diversity of Campylobacter upsaliensis and Campylobacter helveticus strains isolated from dogs and cats in Germany.
A serotyping scheme based on heat-stable surface antigens was established for 101 Campylobacter upsaliensis and 10 Campylobacter helveticus strains isolated from 261 dogs and 46 cats of different ages originating from two geographically distinct regions in Germany. The prevalence of C. upsaliensis varied between 27.8% in juvenile dogs (<12 months of age) and 55.4% in adult dogs (P < 0.05). Of t...
متن کاملPrevalence of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli in captive wildlife species of India
Campylobacteriosis is an important zoonotic disease and the prevalence of Campylobacter is largely unknown in the wildlife of India. A total of 370 samples, comprising of 314 fresh faecal samples from apparently healthy captive wild animals and birds, 30 stool swabs from animal care takers and 26 samples of the animals’ food and water were collected from G. B. Pant High Altitude Zoo, Nainital, ...
