چکیده
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is a bacterial pathogen causing highly contagious porcine pleuropneumonia. Due to limited information on this species, it is difficult to study the biology of A. pleuropneumoniae at the genome level. Here, we report the fully annotated genome sequence of A. pleuropneumoniae strain KL 16.

Draft genome sequence of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotype 7 strain S-8.
The Gram-negative bacterium Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is the etiological agent of porcine pleuropneumonia, a respiratory disease that leads to severe economic losses in the swine industry. For years, scientists working with it have lacked a reliable genome sequence for comparison with other Actinobacillus species. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of A. pleuropneumoniae serotype 7...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of MIDG2331, a Genetically Tractable Serovar 8 Clinical Isolate of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae
We report here the complete annotated genome sequence of a clinical serovar 8 isolate Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae MIDG2331. Unlike the serovar 8 reference strain 405, MIDG2331 is amenable to genetic manipulation via natural transformation as well as conjugation, making it ideal for studies of gene function.
متن کاملFirst chromosomal restriction map of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and localization of putative virulence-associated genes.
Combined physical and genetic maps of the genomes of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae AP76 (serotype 7 clinical isolate) and of A. pleuropneumoniae ATCC 27088 (serotype 1 reference strain) were constructed by using the restriction endonucleases ApaI, AscI, NotI, and SalI. The chromosome sizes as determined by the addition of estimated fragment sizes were 2.4 Mbp, and both maps had a resolution o...
متن کاملExperimental Identification of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae Strains L20 and JL03 Heptosyltransferases, Evidence for a New Heptosyltransferase Signature Sequence
We experimentally identified the activities of six predicted heptosyltransferases in Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae genome serotype 5b strain L20 and serotype 3 strain JL03. The initial identification was based on a bioinformatic analysis of the amino acid similarity between these putative heptosyltrasferases with others of known function from enteric bacteria and Aeromonas. The putative funct...
متن کاملIdentification of dimethyl sulfoxide reductase in Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and its role in infection.
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, the causative agent of porcine pleuropneumonia, is capable of persisting in oxygen-deprived surroundings, namely, tonsils and sequestered necrotic lung tissue. Utilization of alternative terminal electron acceptors in the absence of oxygen is a common strategy in bacteria under anaerobic growth conditions. In an experiment aimed at identification of genes expres...
