Characterization of the pilin gene of Moraxella bovis Dalton 2d and expression of pili from M. bovis in Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1990
The pilin gene of Moraxella bovis Dalton 2d was isolated by cloning in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The nucleotide sequence of this gene encodes a prepilin of 156 amino acid residues. When high levels of pilin were expressed from the gene in P. aeruginosa, by using the pL promoter of bacteriophage lambda inserted upstream of the coding sequence, pili which ...

Monitoring wildlife health for diseases with visible signs by integrating camera traps with marked individuals

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring wildlife health is essential for conservation and management, wildlife and livestock welfare, and public health in a One Health framework. Yet, wildlife health monitoring often requires long‐term fieldwork and intensive sampling, which can be costly or logistically challenging, especially for remote, rare, or elusive populations. To

Mycoplasma bovis shares insertion sequences with Mycoplasma agalactiae and Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides SC: Evolutionary and developmental aspects [PDF]

, 2017
Three new insertion elements, ISMbov1, ISMbov2 and ISMbov3, which are closely related to ISMag1 (Mycoplasma agalactiae), ISMmy1 and IS1634 (both Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides SC), respectively, have been discovered in Mycoplasma bovis, an important

Immune Evasion of Helicobacter pylori and Extra‐Gastric Cancer Risk

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a group 1 gastric carcinogen that plays a significant role in extra‐gastric digestive system cancers. H. pylori disrupts host cell homeostasis through expression of virulence factors leading to immune evasion as well as persistent gastric mucosal colonization. H. pylori infection has been shown to play a role

Performance of an environmental test to detect Mycobacterium bovis infection in badger social groups [PDF]

, 2007
A study by Courtenay and others (2006) demonstrated that the probability of detecting Mycobacterium bovis by PCR in soil samples from the spoil heaps of main badger setts correlated with the prevalence of excretion (infectiousness) of captured ...

High prevalence of a host‐associated Anaplasma lineage in wild coatis (Nasua nasua) from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Anaplasma sp. DNA was detected in 47.9% of free‐ranging coatis (Nasua nasua) sampled in Iguaçu National Park, southern Brazil. Molecular analyses revealed a genetically distinct Anaplasma lineage infecting coatis, differing from Anaplasma strains detected in associated tick populations.

Structure and function of the mycobacterial transcription initiation complex with the essential regulator RbpA

eLife, 2017
RbpA and CarD are essential transcription regulators in mycobacteria. Mechanistic analyses of promoter open complex (RPo) formation establish that RbpA and CarD cooperatively stimulate formation of an intermediate (RP2) leading to RPo; formation of RP2 ...

Reference genome and comparative genome analysis for the WHO reference strain for Mycobacterium bovis BCG Danish, the present tuberculosis vaccine [PDF]

, 2019
Background: Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guerin (M. bovis BCG) is the only vaccine available against tuberculosis (TB). In an effort to standardize the vaccine production, three substrains, i.e. BCG Danish 1331, Tokyo 172-1 and Russia BCG-1 were

Bacterial screening of platelet donations in England, 2014–2023

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Bacterial contamination of blood components is an ongoing problem in transfusion medicine. We analysed the bacterial screening data of platelets from England, 2014–2023, and compared this with data on reported near‐misses and transfusion‐transmitted infections (TTIs). Materials and Methods Anonymized data on bacterial

Tracing Narratives of Responsibility for Addressing Aotearoa New Zealand's Myrtle Rust Incursion 2016–2021

New Zealand Geographer, Volume 82, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Using the 2017 myrtle rust (Austropuccinia psidii) incursion into Aotearoa New Zealand as a case study, we analysed media articles to examine how roles and responsibilities of actors are framed in the biosecurity system. We reveal a multi‐layered, evolving and uncertain biosecurity system.
