The Fusobacterium Genus: I. Biochemical and Serological Classification.
Fusiform bacilli are normally present in human mouths and throats, and on the external genitalia; also in the oral cavities of various species of animals. They have been observed, furthermore, in a variety of human pathological conditions. In spite of their frequent occurrence in nature, there has been little progress in the classification of these organisms since Leiner (1907) first observed t...
متن کاملFusobacterium Liver Abscess
Fusobacterium is well characterized as an oropharyngeal pathogen that may induce a septic thrombophlebitis by direct extension of abscess into an adjacent neck vessel (Lemierre's syndrome); its potential for visceral abscess formation, however, remains under-recognized. A 65-year-old man with a recent history of multiple rim-enhancing liver lesions presented to the emergency room with fever and...
متن کاملIntrageneric relationships of members of the genus Fusobacterium as determined by reverse transcriptase sequencing of small-subunit rRNA.
The phylogenetic interrelationships of 14 members of the genus Fusobacterium were investigated by performing a comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA sequences of these organisms. The sequence data revealed considerable intrageneric heterogeneity. The four species Fusobacterium nucleatum (including F. nucleatum subsp. nucleatum, F. nucleatum subsp. polymorphum, "F. nucleatum subsp. fusiforme," an...

متن کاملComparison of the 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer regions between Fusobacterium varium and "Fusobacterium pseudonecrophorum" strains.
The 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer regions (ISRs) of five strains of "Fusobacterium pseudonecrophorum" which had been proposed as a new species, were compared with those of F. varium ATCC 8501T. All the strains of "F. pseudonecrophorum" exhibited of sequence similarities of 97.7% to 100% to the strain of F. varium in their 16S-23S rRNA ISR sequences. This indicates that the strains of "F. pseud...
