Defined medium for Moraxella bovis.
A defined medium (medium MB) for Moraxella bovis was formulated. Nineteen strains grew well on medium MB. One strain was auxotrophic for asparagine, and another was auxotrophic for methionine. Strains of M. equi and M. lacunata also grew on medium MB. All strains had an absolute requirement for thiamine and were stimulated by or actually required the other growth factors in the medium.
متن کاملIdentification, expression and characterisation of a Babesia bovis hexose transporter
Babesia are tick-transmitted haemoprotozoan parasites that infect cattle, with an estimated 500 million at risk worldwide. Here, two predicted hexose transporters (BboHT1 and 2) have been identified within the Babesia bovis genome. BboHT1, having 40% and 47% amino acid sequence similarity compared with the human (GLUT1) and Plasmodium falciparum (PfHT) hexose transporters, respectively, is the ...
متن کاملHydrolytic enzymes of Moraxella bovis.
Certain strains of Moraxella bovis produce tissue-damaging enzymes which may initiate or potentiate infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis. Thirteen reference strains of this species were characterized physiologically and screened for production of various enzymes by some conventional biochemical tests and the API ZYM system (Analytab Products, Plainview, N.Y.). All 13 strains were hemolytic. A...
متن کاملIdentification of Moraxella bovis by using a monoclonal antibody to a lipopolysaccharide epitope.
A monoclonal antibody to the lipopolysaccharide of Moraxella bovis is described. In an indirect fluorescent-antibody test, this monoclonal antibody reacted with 39 of 39 strains of M. bovis tested and did not react with 26 nonfermenting gram-negative coccobacilli other than M. bovis. When used in an indirect fluorescent-antibody test, it proved useful for rapid and easy identification of M. bovis.
متن کاملCloning and sequencing of a Moraxella bovis pilin gene.
Moraxella bovis pili have been shown to play a major role in both infectivity and protective immunity of bovine infectious keratoconjunctivitis. Sonicated M. bovis DNA from the piliated strain EPP63 was inserted into the vector lambda gt11 with EcoRI linkers. Recombinant phage were screened with an oligonucleotide probe based on the amino-terminal portion of the DNA sequence of a Neisseria gono...
