Enzymatic activity of Campylobacter jejuni hippurate hydrolase.
The hippurate hydrolase enzyme of Campylobacter jejuni was expressed in Escherichia coli as a six-histidine-tagged fusion protein. The purified recombinant enzyme was characterized to gain an understanding of the structure and activity of the hippurate hydrolase. The recombinant enzyme had a native molecular mass of 193+/- 11 kDa a reduced molecular mass of 42.4+/- 0.8 kDa, and possessed 1.98+/...
متن کاملThe Role of Campylobacter Jejuni in Campylobacteriosis
Campylobacter jejuni is a Gram negative, curved, motile, thermophilic and microaerophilic bacillus in Campylobacteriaceae family, which is one of the main causes of enteritis in human named campylobacteriosis. The main reservoir of Campylobacter jejuni is the alimentary tract of animals, especially chicken and turkey. Consumption of semi-cooked chicken meat, raw milk and unchlorinated water are...
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, ...
متن کاملCampylobacter jejuni.
This review describes characteristics of the family Campylobacteraceae and traits of Campylobacter jejuni. The review then focuses on the worldwide problem of C. jejuni antimicrobial resistance and mechanisms of pathogenesis and virulence. Unravelling these areas will help with the development of new therapeutic agents and ultimately decrease illness caused by this important human pathogen.
متن کاملDetection and characterization of autoagglutination activity by Campylobacter jejuni.
In several gram-negative bacterial pathogens, autoagglutination (AAG) activity is a marker for interaction with host cells and virulence. Campylobacter jejuni strains also show AAG, but this property varies considerably among strains. To examine the characteristics of C. jejuni AAG, we developed a quantitative in vitro assay. For strain 81-176, which shows high AAG, activity was optimal for cel...
