Genome features of Leptospira interrogans serovar Copenhageni.
We report novel features of the genome sequence of Leptospira interrogans serovar Copenhageni, a highly invasive spirochete. Leptospira species colonize a significant proportion of rodent populations worldwide and produce life-threatening infections in mammals. Genomic sequence analysis reveals the presence of a competent transport system with 13 families of genes encoding for major transporter...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of Leptospira interrogans serovar Copenhageni from a dog from Saint Kitts
Introduction. Leptospirosis is a zoonotic bacterial disease of global distribution affecting humans and animals. The initial phase of leptospirosis resembles many other febrile illness and due to its broad and biphasic clinical manifestations, selection and implementation of appropriate diagnostic tests can be challenging. Case presentation. This report describes a case investigation of a 14 we...
متن کاملCross antigenicities of Leptospira interrogans serovar copenhageni Shibaura strain for preparing biological products in Japan.
Cross protective antigenicities of Leptospira were studied with 16 antisera to 13 serovars of Leptospira interrogans and a virulent strains "Shibaura (V)", which is now considered to belong to serovar copenhageni, for challenge. The antisera of the rabbits highly immunized with various serovar live antigens were examined for leptospiricidal activity; cross immunity was recognized only in the sa...
متن کاملIdentification of Seroreactive Proteins of Leptospira interrogans Serovar Copenhageni Using a High-Density Protein Microarray Approach
BACKGROUND Leptospirosis is a widespread zoonotic disease worldwide. The lack of an adequate laboratory test is a major barrier for diagnosis, especially during the early stages of illness, when antibiotic therapy is most effective. Therefore, there is a critical need for an efficient diagnostic test for this life threatening disease. METHODOLOGY In order to identify new targets that could be...
متن کاملLeptospira interrogans serovar Copenhageni Harbors Two lexA Genes Involved in SOS Response
Bacteria activate a regulatory network in response to the challenges imposed by DNA damage to genetic material, known as the SOS response. This system is regulated by the RecA recombinase and by the transcriptional repressor lexA. Leptospira interrogans is a pathogen capable of surviving in the environment for weeks, being exposed to a great variety of stress agents and yet retaining its abilit...
