Purification and characterization of Vibrio cholerae non-O1 heat-stable enterotoxin.
A toxin which causes rapid fluid accumulation in a suckling mouse assay and which was produced by Vibrio cholerae non-O1 was investigated. The toxin was purified from the culture supernatant of V. cholerae non-O1 (strain A-5) by ammonium sulfate fractionation, hydroxyapatite treatment, ethanol extraction, column chromatographies on SP-Sephadex C-50 and DEAE-Sephadex A-25, and high-pressure liqu...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of a new heat-stable enterotoxin produced by Vibrio cholerae non-O1 serogroup Hakata.
The possible production of a heat-stable enterotoxin (Vc-H-ST) by Vibrio cholerae non-O1 serogroup Hakata was investigated, and the purified Vc-H-ST was characterized. It has a unique amino acid sequence, LIDCCEICCNPACFGCLN. This sequence is quite similar to that of the heat-stable enterotoxin (NAG-ST) produced by V. cholerae non-O1 except for one amino acid (leucine) residue excess at the N te...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of a heat-stable enterotoxin of Vibrio mimicus.
A heat-stable enterotoxin produced by Vibrio mimicus (VM-ST) was studied. VM-ST was purified from a culture supernatant of V. mimicus strain AQ-0915 by ammonium sulfate fractionation, hydroxyapatite treatment, ethanol extraction, column chromatography on both SP-Sephadex C-50 and DEAE-Sephadex A-25, and HPLC, and the recovery rate was about 15%. Purified VM-ST was heat-stable. VM-ST activity wa...
متن کاملHigh Prevalence of Vibrio cholerae Non-O1 Carrying Heat-Stable-Enterotoxin-Encoding Genes among Vibrio Isolates from a Temperate-Climate River Basin of Central Italy.
Vibrio spp. of clinical interest from the Arno River basin (Tuscany, Italy) were investigated in this study. Vibrios were isolated from 70% of water samples. Vibrio cholerae non-O1 was the most prevalent species (82% of isolates), followed by Vibrio mimicus (10%) and Vibrio metschnikovii (8%). Recovery of vibrios was correlated with temperature, pH, and various indicators of municipal pollution...
متن کاملVibrio cholerae non-serogroup O1 cystitis.
We report a case of a patient who developed cystitis caused by non-serogroup O1 Vibrio cholerae after swimming in the Chesapeake Bay. Treatment was empirical, with complete symptomatic resolution. Genitourinary tract infections by Vibrio spp. are uncommon but should be considered when cystitis occurs after saltwater exposure in appropriate geographic regions.
