Cloning, Overexpression, Purification, and Immunobiology of an 85-Kilodalton Outer Membrane Protein from Haemophilus ducreyi [PDF]
, 2001 We have identified an 85-kDa outer membrane protein that is expressed by all tested strains of Haemophilus ducreyi. Studies of related proteins from other pathogenic bacteria, including Haemophilus influenzae, Pasteurella multocida, Neisseria gonorrhoeae,

Haemophilus ducreyi Cutaneous Ulcer Strains Are Nearly Identical to Class I Genital Ulcer Strains.
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2015 BackgroundAlthough cutaneous ulcers (CU) in the tropics is frequently attributed to Treponema pallidum subspecies pertenue, the causative agent of yaws, Haemophilus ducreyi has emerged as a major cause of CU in yaws-endemic regions of the South Pacific ...

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 1, January 2024.In this study, we developed a method for the rapid detection of Clostridium piliforme. This method has good specificity, high sensitivity, simple operation and potential for basic promotion application. Abstract Background Clostridium piliforme (causative agent of Tyzzer disease) infects various animals, including primates, and hence a threat to animal

Immunoblot analysis of antigens associated with Haemophilus ducreyi using serum from immunised rabbits. [PDF]
, 1986 Sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting were used to characterise isolates of Haemophilus ducreyi. Isolates of H ducreyi were heterogeneous in protein composition, but isolates from single outbreaks appeared similar ...

Genetic characterization of Haemophilus ducreyi from non-genital skin lesions in Cameroon. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Haemophilus ducreyi, traditionally recognized as the etiological agent of chancroid, a genital ulcer disease, is increasingly being identified as a significant cause of cutaneous ulcers in yaws-endemic regions across the South Pacific ...

Role of SodC in heme acquisition in Haemophilus ducreyi
, 2003 Haemophilus ducreyi expresses outer-membrane receptors for both heme (TdhA) and hemoglobin (HgbA), but no mechanism yet has been identified for the transport of heme from the periplasm to the cytoplasm. SodC protein in H.

Cloning and Characterization of tdhA, a Locus Encoding a TonB-Dependent Heme Receptor from Haemophilus ducreyi [PDF]
, 1998 Haemophilus ducreyi is unable to synthesize heme and must acquire it from its only known host, humans. We cloned and sequenced a gene encoding an outer membrane receptor for heme.

The Hd0053 gene of Haemophilus ducreyi encodes an α2,3-sialyltransferase
, 2007 Haemophilus ducreyi is a Gram-negative bacterium that causes chancroid, a sexually transmitted genital ulcer disease. Different lipooligosaccharide (LOS) structures have been identified from H. ducreyi strain 35000, including those sialylated glycoforms.

Haemophilus ducreyi Activates Human NK Cells through Interactions with Macrophages and Dendritic Cells [PDF]
, 2009 The role of natural killer (NK) cells in the host response to Haemophilus ducreyi is unclear. In pustules obtained from infected human volunteers, there was an enrichment of CD56bright NK cells bearing the activation markers CD69 and HLA-DR compared to ...
