Chemical Studies on Shigella sonnei Lipid A [PDF]
Shigella sonnei lipid A isolated from lipopolysaccharides of S and R-forms of the bacteria, is composed of β-glucosaminyl-1,6-glucosamine units interlinked probably by pyrophosphate bridges (molar ratio GlcN/P 0.8:1). Glucosamine disaccharide units are O-substituted by fatty acids residues: lauryl-, 3-d-myristoxymyristoyl-, 3-d-hydroxymyristoyl- and ...

The transfer and decay of maternal antibody against Shigella sonnei in a longitudinal cohort of Vietnamese infants. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Shigella sonnei is an emergent and major diarrheal pathogen for which there is currently no vaccine. We aimed to quantify duration of maternal antibody against S.

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

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

Open-source genomic analysis of Shiga-toxin–producing E. coli O104:H4 [PDF]
An outbreak caused by Shiga-toxin–producing Escherichia coli O104:H4 occurred in Germany in May and June of 2011, with more than 3000 persons infected. Here, we report a cluster of cases associated with a single family and describe an open-source genomic

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).
