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.

Molecular Diagnosis of Footrot and Contagious Ovine Digital Dermatitis in Small Ruminants in the Iberian Peninsula [PDF]
AnimalsContagious ovine digital dermatitis (CODD) and footrot (FR), a sub-acute or acute necrotic (decaying) infectious disease involving the hoof and underlying tissues, pose economic challenges to herds in Spain and worldwide. The aetiological agent for FR is

Regulation of Type IV Fimbrial Biogenesis in Dichelobacter nodosus [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2006 ABSTRACT Type IV fimbriae are expressed by several bacterial pathogens and are essential for virulence in Dichelobacter nodosus , which causes ovine footrot. We have identified a two-component signal transduction system (PilR/S) and an alternative sigma factor (σ 54 ) that were ...
