Polymorphism in the Yersinia LcrV Antigen Enables Immune Escape From the Protection Conferred by an LcrV-Secreting Lactococcus Lactis in a Pseudotuberculosis Mouse Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Yersinioses caused by Yersinia pestis, Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, and Yersinia enterocolitica are significant concerns in human and veterinary health. The link between virulence and the potent LcrV antigen has prompted the latter's selection as a major

Yersinia pseudotuberculosis Typing Using Multi-Locus Variable-Number Tandem Repeat Analysis

open access: yesПроблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2015
Estimated has been efficacy of MLVA25 method, used for differentiation and clusterization of Yersinia pestis strains, in reference to Yersinia pseudotuberculosis strains, as well as the search of Y. pseudotuberculosis strains mostly closely related to Y.

HmsB, a small RNA, enhances biofilm formation in Yersinia pestis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The hmsHFRS operon is responsible for biosynthesis and translocation of biofilm matrix exopolysaccharide. Yersinia pestis expresses the two sole diguanylate cyclases HmsT and HmsD and the sole phosphodiesterase HmsP, which are specific for biosynthesis ...

The interaction of Yersinia pestis with erythrocytes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology, 2002
Human and murine erythrocytes (RBC) were invaded by Yersinia pestis in vivo and in vitro during a short period and were probably used as an essential source of iron and porphyrin for survival, effective gross multiplication and rapid spread of these bacteria in the bloodstream of mammals. Both iron and porphyrin were extracted by Y. pestis from the RBC

Obtaining Specific Sequence Tags for Yersinia pestis and Visually Detecting Them Using the CRISPR-Cas12a System

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Three worldwide historical plague pandemics resulted in millions of deaths. Yersinia pestis, the etiologic agent of plague, is also a potential bioterrorist weapon. Simple, rapid, and specific detection of Y.

Approaches for the Inactivation of <i>Yersinia pestis</i>. [PDF]

open access: yesAppl Biosaf
Introduction: Yersinia pestis is the gram-negative, facultative intracellular bacterium that causes the disease known as plague. Due to the risk for aerosol transmission, a low infectious dose, and the acute and lethal nature of pneumonic plague, research activities ...

Methionine transport in Yersinia pestis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1975
Yersinia pestis TJW, an avirulent wild-type strain, requires phenylalanine and methionine for growth. It was of interest to examine and define the methionine transport system because of this requirement. The methionine system showed saturation kinetics with a Km for transport of approximately 9 times 10(-7) M.

Zoonotic Focus of Plague, Algeria

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2006
After an outbreak of human plague, 95 Xenopsylla cheopis fleas from Algeria were tested for Yersinia pestis with PCR methods. Nine fleas were definitively confirmed to be infected with Y. pestis biovar orientalis.
