Ampicillin Resistance of Shigella sonnei [PDF]
The ampicillin resistance of clinical isolates of Shigella sonnei is due to β-lactamase production. Two kinds of resistance are found: low level, nontransmissible; and high level, tranmissible. The nontransmissible type of resistance results from a chromosomal mutation which increases the production of a β-lactamase

Whole-genome sequencing unveiled host and environment-related insights to Shigella sonnei transmission within cyclic epidemics during 2000–2012 in Israel. The Israeli reservoir contains isolates belonging to S. sonnei lineage III but of different origin,

Genome sequence of Shigella sonnei 4303 [PDF]
Shigella spp. are Gram-negative intracellular pathogenic bacteria belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae and can cause bacterial dysentery, a severe diarrheal disease. The pathophysiological impact of the Gram-negative bacteria is highly related to the composition and structural variability of lipopolysaccharides, the major lipoid components of the

A Shigella sonnei Outbreak in Nagasaki
We have experienced an outbreak of dysentery in Nagasaki. Shigella sonnei were positively cultured from 467 patients out of suspected 821 cases, and 346 patients were admitted. 121 patients were treated with oral antimicrobials in the outpatient clinic. Five patients were diagnosed as secondary infection.

One of the strategies that bacteria utilize to combat environmental stress is to synthesize stress-responding proteins. In Escherichia coli, adverse environmental factors, such as starvation, heat, and the presence of acid, oxidants, heavy metals, and antibiotics, trigger the expression of the universal stress protein (USP).

A Cryptic Plasmid from Shigella sonnei [PDF]
pNZ500 is a 1.5 kb cryptic plasmid from a Shigella sonnei isolate. It was introduced into Escherichia coli by cotransformation, where it is maintained at about 30 copies per chromosome equivalent. Hybridization studies show that pNZ500 exhibits a high level of sequence similarity to other 1.5 kb plasmids found in different S. sonnei isolates but shares

Colicin Typing of Shigella sonnei [PDF]
The colicin typing method for differentiating epidemic strains of Shigella sonnei was evaluated. Forty percent of the strains were untypable, but the method divides 60% of the strains into 15 established colicin types.
