Structurally defined epitopes of Haemophilus ducreyi lipooligosaccharides recognized by monoclonal antibodies.
By use of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunoblotting techniques, the migration patterns and binding epitopes of lipooligosaccharides (LOS) from 10 Haemophilus ducreyi strains were investigated with two monoclonal antibodies (MAbs), MAHD6 and MAHD7, raised against LOS from H. ducreyi ITM 2665. Closely related LOS, with defined structures, from Haemophilus influenzae, Bordetella pertuss...
متن کاملDirect Whole-Genome Sequencing of Cutaneous Strains of Haemophilus ducreyi
Haemophilus ducreyi, which causes chancroid, has emerged as a cause of pediatric skin disease. Isolation of H. ducreyi in low-income settings is challenging, limiting phylogenetic investigation. Next-generation sequencing demonstrates that cutaneous strains arise from class I and II H. ducreyi clades and that class II may represent a distinct subspecies.
متن کاملBiology of Haemophilus ducreyi.
The etiological agent of the sexually transmitted genital ulcer disease chancroid was first described in 1889 by Auguste Ducrey following repeated autoinoculation of purulent ulcer material from a series of patients. The organism was isolated on artificial media a decade later but has remained difficult to isolate consistently, resulting in controversy over its characteristics and role as the c...
متن کاملChancroid and Haemophilus ducreyi.
Haemophilus ducreyi is the causative agent of chancroid, one of the genital ulcerative diseases. H. ducreyi is the major cause of genital ulcer disease in Africa and Southeast Asia and is of increasing concern in the United States. Definitive diagnosis of chancroid requires the isolation and identification of H. ducreyi, but isolation of this organism is difficult and the available medium is no...
متن کاملMonoclonal Antibodies Reactive
The 3 murine monoclonal antibodies, Yps1, Yps2 and Yps3 reactive to Y. pseudotuberculosis can be stabilized and all were found to be of IgG type. Monoclonal antibody, Yps1, recognized a glycoprotein antigen of the organism with reactivity at the 55-75 kDa region, while Yps2 and Yps3 recognized protein antigens of Y. pseudotuberculosis 65 kDa and 26-28 kDa molecular weight regions, respectively....
