| enteric bacterial pathogen detection in southern sea otters (enhydra lutris nereis) is associated with coastal urbanization and freshwater runoff. | although protected for nearly a century, california's sea otters have been slow to recover, in part due to exposure to fecally-associated protozoal pathogens like toxoplasma gondii and sarcocystis neurona. however, potential impacts from exposure to fecal bacteria have not been systematically explored. using selective media, we examined feces from live and dead sea otters from california for specific enteric bacterial pathogens (campylobacter, salmonella, clostridium perfringens, c. difficile an ... | 2010 | 19720009 |

| altered architecture of substrate binding region defines the unique specificity of udp-galnac 4-epimerases. | udp-hexose 4-epimerases play a pivotal role in lipopolysaccharide (lps) biosynthesis and leloir pathway. these epimerases are classified into three groups based on whether they recognize nonacetylated udp-hexoses (group 1), both n-acetylated and nonacetylated udp-hexoses (group 2) or only n-acetylated udp-hexoses (group 3). although the catalysis has been investigated extensively, yet a definitive model rationalizing the substrate specificity of all the three groups on a common platform is large ... | 2011 | 21384454 |
| molecular evidence of plesiomonas shigelloides as a possible zoonotic agent. | the most frequently used method for establishing epidemiological relationships between plesiomonas shigelloides strains is o:h serotyping. however, a number of strains are not serotypeable and isolates from diverse sources can display the same serovar. moreover, since the zoonotic nature of plesiomonas has been suggested and this hypothesis is based on the identical serovars found in animals and humans, we intend to use four dna-based techniques: random amplified polymorphic dna-pcr, enterobacte ... | 2011 | 21584782 |
