Genome sequence of Listeria monocytogenes Scott A, a clinical isolate from a food-borne listeriosis outbreak.

چکیده
Listeria monocytogenes is an opportunistic food-borne pathogen and the causative agent of listeriosis in animals and humans. We present the genome sequence of Listeria monocytogenes Scott A, a widely distributed and frequently used serovar 4b clinical isolate from the 1983 listeriosis outbreak in Massachusetts.

Draft Genome Sequence of Listeria monocytogenes Strain LI0521 (syn. HPB7171), Isolated in 1983 during an Outbreak in Massachusetts Caused by Contaminated Cheese
Listeria monocytogenes, a pathogenic food-borne bacterium, is the causative agent of both sporadic and outbreak cases of human listeriosis. Here, we present the genome sequence of L. monocytogenes reference strain LI0521, isolated during an outbreak involving contaminated cheese, which has been used as the model during several proteomic studies.

متن کاملAssessing the genome level diversity of Listeria monocytogenes from contaminated ice cream and environmental samples linked to a listeriosis outbreak in the United States
A listeriosis outbreak in the United States implicated contaminated ice cream produced by one company, which operated 3 facilities. We performed single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis on Listeria monocytogenes from food, environmental and clinical sources, identifying two clusters and a single branch, belonging to PCR serogroup IIb and genetic lineage ...
متن کاملVerification of causal relationships between Listeria monocytogenes isolates implicated in food-borne outbreaks of listeriosis by randomly amplified polymorphic DNA patterns.
Food and clinical isolates of Listeria monocytogenes recovered from four different outbreaks of listeriosis were analyzed by their PCR-based randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) patterns to verify their causal relationships. The generation of DNA fingerprints by PCR-based RAPD analysis is a fast and sensitive method for the epidemiological tracking and identification of bacteria implicated...
متن کاملGenetic Characteristics of Japanese Clinical Listeria monocytogenes Isolates
Listeria monocytogenes causes foodborne illnesses through consumption of ready-to-eat foods. Although 135-201annual listeriosis cases have been estimated in Japan, the details regarding the clinical isolates such as infection source, virulence level, and other genetic characteristics, are not known. In order to uncover the trends of listeriosis in Japan and use the knowledge for prevention meas...
