LPS-PCR typing of ovine Pasteurella multocida isolates from Iran based on (L1 to L8) outer core biosynthesis loci
Authors
Abstract:
Pasteurella multocida isa gram-negative bacterial pathogen that is causative agent of a wide range of diseases in many animal species and humans. Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are an important virulence factor, minor changes to structure of which can exert dramatic effects on pathogenicity of P. multocida in its host. LPS can be used for the identification and classification of strains with somatic typing systems.The aim of this study was to identify the LPS genotypes of the ovine P. multocida isolates obtained from pneumonia cases in Iran. The LPS genotype of the isolates was determined using eight specific primers for LPS outer core biosynthesis loci. The LPS genes were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), then they were sequenced and compared to the sequences registered in the GenBank. Of the 32 ovine P. multocida isolates tested, 21 (65.62%) isolates belonged to genotype L6, 9 (28.12%) isolates contained genotype L3, 1 (3.12%) isolate had both L3 and L6 loci, and 1 (3.12%) isolate remained untypeable. The LPS-PCR was able to type 31 of 32 field ovine isolates from Iran. According to the phylogenetic analysis, L3 genotype isolates were grouped into two distinct lineages. LPS gene sequences among L6 genotypes of ovine P. multocida isolates from Iran and the related sequences in the GenBank were highly similar (>99.5%). LPS-PCR is an accurate genotyping method that was able to classify P. multocida strains into one of the eight distinct LPS genotypes.

Molecular typing of twenty-five Pasteurella multocida isolates has been assessed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of a species-specific PCR assay. All of the P.multocida isolates were recovered from fowl cholera outbreaks in Northern provinces of Iran. Amplification was based on the gene ompH, encoding a major outer membrane protein (protein H). PCR with ompH primers amplified...

Pasteurella multocida is known as one of the main organisms causing pneumonia in sheep. As immunity in pasteurellosis is serogroup specific, identification of prevalent capsular group among endemic areas is essential. The aim of this study was to molecular identification and determine of the capsular type of the P. multocida strains isolated from sheep pneumonia in Iran. Bacteriological and bio...

In this study, to increase information about the relationship between caprine and ovine isolates of Pasteurella multocida, 16S rRNA gene sequencing of 9 goats (5) and sheep (4) isolates were investigated. Also, capsular type and toxAgene presentation was studied in this paper. All isolates, except one, belong to capsular type A, and toxA+ strain distributed among strains were isolated from both...
