The AprV5 subtilase is required for the optimal processing of all three extracellular serine proteases from Dichelobacter nodosus. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Dichelobacter nodosus is the principal causative agent of ovine footrot and its extracellular proteases are major virulence factors. Virulent isolates of D. nodosus secrete three subtilisin-like serine proteases: AprV2, AprV5 and BprV.

Genomic Evidence for a Globally Distributed, Bimodal Population in the Ovine Footrot Pathogen Dichelobacter nodosus

mBio, 2014
Footrot is a contagious, debilitating disease of sheep, causing major economic losses in most sheep-producing countries. The causative agent is the Gram-negative anaerobe Dichelobacter nodosus. Depending on the virulence of the infective bacterial strain,

Serological Diversity of Dichelobacter nodosus in German Sheep Flocks

Animals, 2022
Footrot is one of the major causes of lameness in sheep and leads to decreased animal welfare and high economic losses. The causative agent is the Gram-negative anaerobic bacterium Dichelobacter nodosus. The prevalence of D.

Direct serogrouping of Dichelobacter nodosus from Victorian farms using conventional multiplex polymerase chain reaction

BMC Research Notes, 2018
Objective Dichelobacter nodosus is the causative agent of footrot in sheep. Ovine footrot is a major problem in Australia that results in large economic losses and a represents a very significant animal welfare issue. D.

Mathematical modeling of ovine footrot in the UK: the effect of Dichelobacter nodosus and Fusobacterium necrophorum on the disease dynamics

Epidemics, 2017
Dichelobacter nodosus is a virulent, invasive, anaerobic bacterium that is believed to be the causative agent of ovine footrot, an infectious bacterial disease of sheep that causes lameness.

Serogroup specific single and multiplex PCR with pre-enrichment culture and immuno-magnetic bead capture for identifying strains of D. nodosus in sheep with footrot prior to vaccination

Molecular and Cellular Probes, 2002
The identification of Dichelobacter nodosus present in a flock is a prerequisite to specific (autogenous) vaccination. Current methods of identification of the serogroup present in a population requires that the organisms be isolated, identified visually in mixed culture on streak plates, subcultured to purify and subjected to antigenic analysis.

Natural Mycoplasma Infection Reduces Expression of Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines in Response to Ovine Footrot Pathogens

Animals, 2022
Ovine footrot is a complex multifactorial infectious disease, causing lameness in sheep with major welfare and economic consequences. Dichelobacter nodosus is the main causative bacterium; however, footrot is a polymicrobial disease with Fusobacterium ...
