Characteristics of Ureaplasma urealyticum urease.
Sonication of Ureaplasma urealyticum cells grown in a dialysate growth medium effectively separated the cytoplasmic fraction from the membrane fraction, with both fractions relatively free from exogenous contaminating proteins. The urease activity was associated with the cytoplasmic fraction, and the ureaplasmal urease exhibited a specific activity higher than that of crystalline jack bean urea...
متن کاملOrganization of Ureaplasma urealyticum urease gene cluster and expression in a suppressor strain of Escherichia coli.
Ureaplasma urealyticum is a pathogenic ureolytic mollicute which colonizes the urogenital tracts of humans. A genetic polymorphism between the two biotypes of U. urealyticum at the level of the urease genes was found. The urease gene cluster from a biotype 1 representative of U. urealyticum (serotype I) was cloned and sequenced. Seven genes were found, with ureA, ureB, and ureC encoding the str...

متن کاملInfection of the epididymis by Ureaplasma urealyticum.
Ureaplasma urealyticum organisms (ureaplasmas) were isolated from the urethra and epididymal aspirate of a man aged 24 who had acute right sided epididymitis. No other microorganisms were detected, and he had no chlamydial antibody response. A fourfold antibody response to the epididymal ureaplasma isolate was detected by two methods, however, and the patient responded clinically to doxycycline...
