Genotyping of Salmonella with lineage-specific genes: correlation with serotyping [PDF]
Background: The bacterial genus Salmonella encompasses a large number of serotypes that are genetically very similar but biologically quite different, especially in pathogenic properties and host specificity.

RocA Has Serotype-Specific Gene Regulatory and Pathogenesis Activities in Serotype M28 Group A Streptococcus. [PDF]
Serotype M28 group A streptococcus (GAS) is a common cause of infections such as pharyngitis (“strep throat”) and necrotizing fasciitis (“flesh-eating” disease). Relatively little is known about the molecular mechanisms underpinning M28 GAS pathogenesis.

Transcriptomic analysis of <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> serotype 1 reveals serotype-specific gene regulation. [PDF]
Streptococcus pneumoniae ( Sp ) is an opportunistic pathogen that colonizes the mucosal surfaces of the human upper respiratory tract. While transcriptomic studies of Sp have become more common, most have focused on laboratory ...

In silico Identification of Serovar-Specific Genes for Salmonella Serotyping [PDF]
Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica is a highly diverse subspecies with more than 1500 serovars and the ability to distinguish serovars within this group is vital for surveillance. With the development of whole-genome sequencing technology, serovar prediction by traditional serotyping is being replaced by molecular serotyping.

Cluster-specific gene markers enhance Shigella and Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli in silico serotyping [PDF]
Abstract Shigella and enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC) cause human bacillary dysentery with similar invasion mechanisms and share similar physiological, biochemical and genetic characteristics. The ability to differentiate Shigella

Pasteurella haemolytica serotype 2 contains the gene for a noncapsular serotype 1-specific antigen [PDF]
An ssa1-homologous genomic fragment cloned from Pasteurella haemolytica serotype 2 (ST2) enabled transformation of Escherichia coli DH5 alpha to a serotype 1 (ST1) phenotype through expression of the ST1-specific antigen (Ssa1). The Ssa1 protein expressed by ssa1-transformed E. coli was susceptible to heat and protease treatment and was distinct from P.

Specific gene probe for detection of biotyped and serotyped Listeria strains [PDF]
A total of 284 strains of Listeria, including all known serovars and biovars together with Listeria grayi and Listeria murrayi, were biotyped and serotyped. Biotyping and serotyping could be done in 2 days. A gene probe encoding a delayed hypersensitivity factor (DTH) was used in the detection of pathogenic biotypes and serotypes of the tested strains.

The cps Genes of Streptococcus suis Serotypes 1, 2, and 9: Development of Rapid Serotype-Specific PCR Assays [PDF]
ABSTRACT We developed three type-specific PCR assays for the rapid and sensitive detection of Streptococcus suis serotype 1 (plus 14), serotype 2 (plus 1/2), and serotype 9 strains in tonsillar specimens from pigs. The PCR primers were based on the sequences of type-specific capsular genes of S.

Genomic Stability of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans during Persistent Oral Infection in Human. [PDF]
The genome of periodontal pathogen Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans exhibits substantial variations in gene content among unrelated strains primarily due to the presence or absence of genomic islands.

Cattle develop neutralizing antibodies to rotavirus serotypes which could not be isolated from faeces of symptomatic calves [PDF]
Neutralizing antibodies against 10 serotypes of rotavirus were measured in sera from different age groups of German cattle. Only five of 143 sera did not neutralize heterologous serotypes.
