Pathogenicity of an enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli hemolysin (hlyA) mutant in gnotobiotic piglets.
Pigs infected with hemolytic F4(+) strains of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli often develop septicemia secondary to intestinal infection. We tested the hypothesis that inactivation of hemolysin would reduce the ability of F4(+) enterotoxigenic E. coli to cause septicemia in swine following oral inoculation. Inactivation of the hemolysin structural gene (hlyA) did not decrease the incidence of ...
متن کاملTransport of hemolysin by Escherichia coli.
The hemolytic phenotype in Escherichia coli is determined by four genes. Two (hlyC and hlyA) determine the synthesis of a hemolytically active protein which is transported across the cytoplasmic membrane. The other two genes (hlyBa and hlyBb) encode two proteins which are located in the outer membrane and seem to form a specific transport system for hemolysin across the outer membrane. The prim...
متن کاملPrelytic and lytic conformations of erythrocyte-associated Escherichia coli hemolysin.
Flow cytometry was developed as a method to assess the conformation of erythrocyte-bound Escherichia coli hemolysin polypeptide (HlyA). Topology of membrane-associated hemolysin (HlyA(E)) was investigated by testing surface accessibility of HlyA regions in lytic and nonlytic bound states, using a panel of 12 anti-HlyA monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). Hemolysin associates nonlytically with erythroc...
متن کامل[Cloning and expression in Escherichia coli of Vibrio parahaemolyticus thermostable direct hemolysin and thermolabile hemolysin genes].
Two hemolysin genes of Vibrio parahaemolyticus WP1, a thermostable direct (TSD) hemolysin gene and a thermolabile hemolysin gene, were cloned into the pBR322 vector in Escherichia coli K-12 C600. A large amount of the TSD hemolysin produced in E. coli K-12 accumulated in the periplasmic space. The TSD hemolysin gene was localized on a 0.9-kilobase HindIII-BamHI fragment by identifying qualitati...
متن کاملCharacterization of monoclonal antibodies against the Escherichia coli hemolysin.
Twelve monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) produced against the Escherichia coli hemolysin (HlyA) encoded by the hemolysin recombinant plasmid pWAM04 were studied. HlyA derivatives from recombinant strains with different plasmids encoding HlyA amino-terminal and carboxy-terminal truncates, HlyA in-frame deletions, and HlyA frameshift mutations were used in immunoblots to localize the antigenic determi...
