Draft Genome Sequence of the Causative Antigen of Summer-Type Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis, Trichosporon domesticum JCM 9580
نویسندگان
چکیده
Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Trichosporon domesticum JCM 9580, isolated from the house of a patient with summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis (SHP) in Japan. This genomic information will help elucidate the mechanisms of the development of SHP.

TA-19, a novel protein antigen of Trichosporon asahii, in summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis.
The most common form of hypersensitivity pneumonitis in Japan is summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis (SHP), which is caused by the inhalation of Trichosporon asahii or Trichosporon mucoides. To seek protein antigens relevant to the immunopathogenesis of SHP, we constructed a cDNA expression library of T. asahii, a major causative yeast species of SHP. Using the immunoscreening method, we i...
متن کاملAnalysis of Trichosporon isolates obtained from the houses of patients with summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis.
Summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis (SHP) is type III or IV allergies developed by repeated inhalation of arthroconidia of Trichosporon species. We identified 105 strains obtained from the homes of 36 SHP patients by analysis of the intergenic spacer (IGS) 1 region, which is located between the 26S and 5S rRNA genes; in addition, we analyzed the IGS genotypes of the strains. Serologically,...
متن کاملDraft genome sequence of CBS 2479, the standard type strain of Trichosporon asahii.
Trichosporon asahii is one of the important opportunistic pathogenic fungi. Here, we first report the draft nuclear chromosome genome sequence and mitochondrial genome sequence of T. asahii CBS 2479, which is a standard strain of T. asahii that was isolated from a progressive psoriatic lesion. COG analysis predicted that 3,131 genes were assigned to 23 functional categories and that 628 genes w...
متن کاملSummer‐type hypersensitivity pneumonitis in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis on methotrexate and tacrolimus
A 59-year-old woman receiving methotrexate and tacrolimus for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was referred to our hospital following bilateral ground-glass opacity observed in her chest X-ray and elevated serum KL-6. After methotrexate and tacrolimus cessation, shortness of breath developed and ground-glass opacity observed in the chest computed tomography rapidly worsened. Bronchoalveolar lavage sho...
