Regulation of pertussis toxin and lipopolysaccharide levels of Bordetella pertussis 134 in response to modulators
Whooping cough (pertussis) is a highly contagious disease of the human respiratory tract, which is caused by Bordetella pertussis. Reemerge of pertussis in some highly immunized populations and divergency in gene order among several B. pertussis strains promoted this research to study the change of pertussis toxin (PT) and lipopolysacharide levels in response to the different environments. Th...
متن کاملIdentification and cloning of waaF (rfaF) from Bordetella pertussis and use to generate mutants of Bordetella spp. with deep rough lipopolysaccharide.
A DNA locus from Bordetella pertussis capable of reconstituting lipopolysaccharide (LPS) O-antigen biosynthesis in Salmonella typhimurium SL3789 (rfaF511) has been isolated, by using selection with the antibiotic novobiocin. DNA within the locus encodes a protein with amino acid sequence similarity to heptosyltransferase II, encoded by waaF (previously rfaF) in other gram-negative bacteria. Mut...
متن کاملGenetic basis for lipopolysaccharide O-antigen biosynthesis in bordetellae.
Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella parapertussis express a surface polysaccharide, attached to a lipopolysaccharide, which has been called O antigen. This structure is absent from Bordetella pertussis. We report the identification of a large genetic locus in B. bronchiseptica and B. parapertussis that is required for O-antigen biosynthesis. The locus is replaced by an insertion sequence i...
متن کاملIn silico Studies for Comparison of FliCs from Salmonella typhimorium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli and their Implication as an Adjuvant
An increasing number of studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of flagellin (FliC) as an adjuvant. In this study, FliC(s) from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli were compared. In silico studies were designed to determine physicochemical parameters of FliC from different bacteria. The fliC gene corresponding to best model was amplified, cl...
متن کاملMicrobial-Resistant Salmonella enteritidis Isolated from Poultry Samples
Background: Multidrug resistance in Salmonella enteritidis isolates is a public health problem worldwide; the present study, therefore, was designed for antimicrobial-resistance determination in this strain. Methods: Salmonella strains isolated from poultry samples by biochemical positive and negative tests were subjected to PCR and identified as Salmonella enteritidis. For detection and ide...
