Genomic lineage of Salmonella enterica serotype Gallinarum

Journal of Medical Microbiology

Abstract

Forty-eight strains of Salmonella enterica serotype Gallinarum of biotypes Gallinarum and Pullorum were characterised by three chromosomally based typing methods. The patterns obtained were compared with those of strains of eight other serotypes of Salmonella of O serogroup D. The same PvuII and PstI IS200 patterns were commonly observed among strains of both biotypes and the three SmaI ribotypes of serotype Gallinarum strains differed in only one or two bands, supporting the view that members of these two biotypes are closely related. The same IS200 patterns were also commonly observed among strains of serotype Enteritidis, indicating its evolutionary relationship with serotype Gallinarum. NotI pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) patterns divided strains into 24 types. Based on a similarity analysis, two clusters were formed. One contained the majority of biotype Gallinarum strains and two atypical strains of Pullorum; the other contained strains of biotype Pullorum and an otherwise typical strain of biotype Gallinarum. Two atypical strains of biotype Pullorum remained unclustered by PFGE analysis. The grouping of strains differed according to the typing method used, but the majority of strains within each of the biotypes ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
