Specific 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 کاملLipopolysaccharides from Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis differently modulate human dendritic cell functions resulting in divergent prevalence of Th17-polarized responses.
Bordetella pertussis and B. parapertussis are the etiological agents of pertussis, yet the former has a higher incidence and is the cause of a more severe disease, in part due to pertussis toxin. To identify other factors contributing to the different pathogenicity of the two species, we analyzed the capacity of structurally different lipooligosaccharide (LOS) from B. pertussis and LPS from B. ...
متن کاملStrain-specific virulence of Bordetella hinzii in poultry.
Bordetella hinzii is commonly acquired from the respiratory tract of diseased poultry but is generally regarded as nonpathogenic in avian hosts because attempts to demonstrate disease following experimental infection of chickens and turkeys have failed. Recently, with the availability of highly specific DNA-based methods for identification of this agent, it was recognized that some isolates use...
متن کاملLipopolysaccharides in diazotrophic bacteria
Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) is a process in which the atmospheric nitrogen (N2) is transformed into ammonia (NH3) by a select group of nitrogen-fixing organisms, or diazotrophic bacteria. In order to furnish the biologically useful nitrogen to plants, these bacteria must be in constant molecular communication with their host plants. Some of these molecular plant-microbe interactions are ...
