Structure and Function of a Multi‐Megadalton Virus‐Like Proteolytic Dodecahedron

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Zuzalysin, a virulence metallopeptidase of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, is secreted as a latent, flexible ≈95‐kDa monomer. Calcium triggers cysteine‐switch activation and hierarchical assembly into pentamers, bipentamers, tripentamers, and a ≈5.6‐MDa, ≈355‐Å dodecahedron. Structures at 1.8–3.6 Å reveal a virus‐sized catalytic cage

Comparative proteomic analysis of outer membrane vesicles from Brucella suis, Brucella ovis, Brucella canis and Brucella neotomae [PDF]

Archives of Microbiology, 2021
Gram-negative bacteria release nanovesicles, called outer membrane vesicles (OMVs), from their outer membrane. Proteomics has been used to determine their composition. OMVs contain proteins able to elicit an immune response, so they have been proposed as a model to develop acellular vaccines. In this study, OMVs of Brucella suis, B. ovis, B. canis, and

BRUCELLOSIS SEROPOSITIVITY IN SHEEP SLAUGHTERED AT SMALL RUMINANT SLAUGHTERHOUSE IN BOGOR REGENCY

Jurnal Kedokteran Hewan, 2018
Brucellosis is among the important diseases in livestock because the disease infects multiple species of animals and causes economic loss. Brucellosis in sheep is generally caused by Brucella melitensis and/or Brucella ovis.

A Novel Arthropod Host of Brucellosis in the Arid Steppe Ecosystem

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
Brucellosis is a severe public health problem in the Inner Mongolia regions of China. The recent prevalence of brucellosis outbreaks may be attributed to an increase in the activity of ticks and other air-borne vectors. Dermacentor nuttalli (D. nuttalli)

EVALUATION OF COOMBS TEST IN BRUCELLA DIAGNOSIS IN CATTLE AND SHEEP COMPARING WITH OTHER SEROLOGICAL TESTS. [PDF]

Assiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 1994
A total of 2406 cattle and 794 sheep blood samples were examined serologically for tube agglutination test (TAT). The reactor samples (33 cattle and 20 sheep) were subjected for Rose Bengal plate test (RBPT), buffered acidified plate test (BAPAT) and ...
