Polymorphism of repeated regions of pertactin in Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella parapertussis, and Bordetella bronchiseptica.
Pertactin is an outer membrane protein expressed by Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella parapertussis, and Bordetella bronchiseptica that induces protective immunity to Bordetella infections. The immunodominant and immunoprotective epitopes of pertactin include two repeated regions, I and II. Comparison of these two repeated regions showed that B. parapertussis pertactin is invariant, whereas B. p...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence homology to pertussis toxin gene in Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella parapertussis.
Multiple strains of Bordetella parapertussis and B. bronchiseptica were examined for the presence of nucleotide sequences which hybridized with a cloned 4.5-kilobase (kb) fragment of B. pertussis DNA containing the genes responsible for pertussis toxin expression. All six B. parapertussis strains tested had nucleic acid sequences that hybridized with the cloned 4.5-kb fragment in Southern blot ...
متن کاملBordetella bronchiseptica bronchitis.
The clinical course of a patient with bronchitis caused by Bordetella bronchiseptica is described. The organism was recovered on one occasion from a protected catheter brush specimen obtained at bronchoscopy and on two occasions from expectorated sputum specimens. The infection was eradicated with antimicrobial therapy.
متن کاملSpecific lipopolysaccharides of Bordetella.
In nmany species of Granm-negative bacteria one of the surface components of the bacterial cell is a material composed of polysaccharide, protein and phospholipid residues (Boivin, Mesrobeanu & Mesrobeanu, 1933; Morgan, 1937, 1949; Miles & Pirie, 1939 a; Morgan & Partridge, 1940, 1941, 1942; Freeman, 1943; Davies, Morgan & Mosimann, 1954). These substances are antigenic, toxic and pyrogenic and...
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility of Bordetella avium and Bordetella bronchiseptica isolates.
Two veterinary pathogens, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella avium, were tested for their antimicrobial susceptibilities. Of the 20 antimicrobial agents tested, both species were consistently resistant to penicillin and cefuroxime but susceptible to mezlocillin, piperacillin, gentamicin, amikacin, and cefoperazone.
