چکیده

We report the draft genome sequences of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans strains 310a (310-TR) and 310b (310-OS). Strain 310a is a clinical isolate with a rough phenotype. Strain 310b is a laboratory-adapted isolate derived from the passage of 310a and displays a smooth phenotype.

Susceptibility of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans to six antibiotics decreases as biofilm matures.

OBJECTIVES Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans is a major causative agent of chronic and aggressive periodontitis. Freshly isolated strains of A. actinomycetemcomitans display rough-type colonies and initiate biofilm formation on glass surfaces. The purpose of this study was to determine the antibiotic susceptibility of A. actinomycetemcomitans biofilm during different phases of maturation. ...

Identification of the Pangenome and Its Components in 14 Distinct Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Strains by Comparative Genomic Analysis

BACKGROUND Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is genetically heterogeneous and comprises distinct clonal lineages that may have different virulence potentials. However, limited information of the strain-to-strain genomic variations is available. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS The genome sequences of 11 A. actinomycetemcomitans strains (serotypes a-f) were generated de novo, annotated and c...

The cagE gene sequence as a diagnostic marker to identify JP2 and non-JP2 highly leukotoxic Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans serotype b strains

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is involved in oral and systemic infections, and is associated with, eg aggressive forms of periodontitis and with endocarditis. The cagE gene encodes a ≈39 kDa putative exotoxin expressed by A. actinomycetemcomitans. The level of conservation of cagE, and its possible significance in periodontal disease, has not yet been thoroughly...

Himar1 Transposon for Efficient Random Mutagenesis in Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans

Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is the primary etiological agent of aggressive periodontal disease. Identification of novel virulence factors at the genome-wide level is hindered by lack of efficient genetic tools to perform mutagenesis in this organism. The Himar1 mariner transposon is known to yield a random distribution of insertions in an organism's genome with requirement for only a ...
