Agglutination ofBordetellaspecies by lectins [PDF]
Phase I cells of Bordetella pertussis but not those of B. parapertussis, B. bronchiseptica or B. avium were agglutinated by Limulus polyphemus lectin. Most strains of B. pertussis but not those of the other species were also agglutinated by Helix pomatia lectin. In precipitation reactions between lectins and purified Bordetella lipopolysaccharide (LPS)

Bordetella Species Other than Bordetella pertussis
Clinical Microbiology Newsletter, 2015Most clinicians and microbiologists are familiar with Bordetella pertussis, its associated clinical syndromes and treatment with antimicrobials, and both biochemical and molecular methods for identification. Many of the other Bordetella species are much less well known, though they do cause clinical disease in humans.

Environmental regulation of virulence factors in Bordetella species
BioEssays, 1993AbstractMany bacteria respond in a coordinate manner to environmental changes. External stimuli, sensed by receptors, are transduced to regulatory proteins which participate in well defined pathways of gene expression by varying their structure and mode of action. The network of environmental signal transduction is responsible for a fine and continuous

Deoxyribonucleotide Sequence Relationships Among Bordetella Species † [PDF]
Deoxyribonucleotide sequence relationships among currently recognized Bordetella species (Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella parapertussis, and Bordetella bronchiseptica) were examined by deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) hybridization involving the hydroxyapatite batch procedures of Brenner and co-workers.

Expression of Pertussis Toxin Correlates with Pathogenesis in Bordetella Species
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1989Pertussis toxin is a principal determinant of virulence produced by Bordetella pertussis in the disease whooping cough and is the primary toxinogenic component of the pertussis vaccine. This toxin is not produced by the closely related species Bordetella parapertussis. Toxinogenic strains of B.

Multiple species and isoforms of Bordetella pertussis toxin substrates
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1988In purified G proteins from bovine brain cortex the ADP-ribosylated substrates of Bordetella pertussis toxin (PT) can be resolved in three polypeptides by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis: a 39 kDa major substrate, corresponding to Go alpha and two others (40 and 41 kDa) assigned to alpha subunits of Gi-like proteins.

Genetic Regulation of Airway Colonization by Bordetella Species
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 1996Abstract Bordetella species are respiratory pathogens that infect humans and other animals. A majority of the virulence factors expressed by these bacteria are regulated by a master control locus, BvgAS, a member of the two-component family of signal transduction systems.

Fimbriae and determination of host species specificity of Bordetella bronchiseptica
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1993A monoclonal antibody, designated CF8 and prepared against fimbrial protein enrichments of Bordetella bronchiseptica 110H, was determined by immunogold electron microscopy to bind to some but not all fimbrial filaments on intact bacterial cells. Comparison of the reactivity of this antibody with that of monoclonal antibody BPF2, which is specific for ...
