Draft genome sequences of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotypes 2 and 6.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is a bacterial pathogen that causes highly contagious respiratory infection in pigs and has a serious impact on the production economy and animal welfare. As clear differences in virulence between serotypes have been observed, the genetic basis should be investigated at the genomic level. Here, we present the draft genome sequences of the A. pleuropneumoniae serotypes 2 (strain 4226) and 6 (strain Femo).

Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is the causative agent of swine pleuropneumonia, a highly contagious disease associated with pigs of all ages that results in severe economic losses to the industry. Here, we report for the first time six genome sequences of A. pleuropneumoniae clinical isolates of serotype 8, found worldwide.
متن کاملDevelopment of a cps-based multiplex PCR for typing of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotypes 1, 2 and 5.
A cps-based multiplex PCR for typing of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotypes 1, 2 and 5 was developed. This method should be specific and practical in Japan where more than 88% of isolates are serotypes 1, 2 or 5.

Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae RTX-toxin III (ApxIII) is implicated as an important virulence factor of A. pleuropneumoniae, the causative agent of porcine pleuropneumonia. Recently, the genes coding for ApxIII (apxIIICA) of serotype 8 were cloned and characterized. The toxin appeared to be a member of the RTX-toxin family, as are the other two secreted toxins of A. pleuropneumoniae, i.e., Apx...
متن کاملIsolation of Atypical Genotype Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae Serotype 6 in Japan
We describe here isolation of genetically atypical serotype 6 Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae in Japan indistinguishable by the multiplex PCR that can discriminate between immunologically cross-reactive serotypes 3, 6 and 8. Nucleotide sequence analysis of capsular export and biosynthesis genes revealed that the atypical isolates have capsular polysaccharide export and synthesis gene sequences ...

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...
