TprK sequence diversity accumulates during infection of rabbits with Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum Nichols strain.
The tprK gene in Treponema pallidum undergoes antigenic variation. In all T. pallidum isolates examined to date, except the Nichols type strain, heterogeneous tprK sequences have been identified. This heterogeneity is localized to seven variable (V) regions, and tprK sequence diversity accumulates with serial passage in naïve rabbits. The T. pallidum Nichols genome described a single tprK seque...
متن کاملTreponema pallidum subsp. pertenue displays pathogenic properties different from those of T. pallidum subsp. pallidum.
The present study described the susceptibility of C4D guinea pigs to cutaneous infection with Treponema pallidum subsp. pertenue Haiti B strain. The general manifestations of the disease in adults and neonates differ, to a certain degree, from those induced by T. pallidum subsp. pallidum Nichols strain. Noticeable differences between the infections were reflected in the character of the skin le...
متن کاملPenicillin-binding proteins and peptidoglycan of Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum.
Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) of Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum (T. pallidum) were characterized by using [3H]penicillin G and a conjugate consisting of ampicillin and 125I-labeled Bolton-Hunter reagent. Both antibiotics specifically radiolabeled proteins with molecular masses of 94, 80, 63, and 58 kilodaltons (kDa); 125I-labeled Bolton-Hunter reagent-ampicillin also radiolabeled sever...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of the Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum Sea81-4 Strain
Using the rabbit model of syphilis, the Sea81-4 strain of Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum has been found to be more likely than other strains to invade the central nervous system (CNS). To identify possible explanations for this important phenotype at the genomic level, we sequenced the Sea81-4 strain genome.
متن کاملComplete genome sequence and annotation of the Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum Chicago strain.
In syphilis research, the Nichols strain of Treponema pallidum, isolated in 1912, has been the most widely studied. Recently, important differences among T. pallidum strains emerged; therefore, we sequenced and annotated the Chicago strain genome to facilitate and encourage the use of this strain in studying the pathogenesis of syphilis.
