| segment iv of a salmonella flagellin gene specifies flagellar antigen epitopes. | each of the two mutants isolated from a flic (= hag, flagellin-deficient) escherichia coli strain made motile by a plasmid carrying the flic gene of salmonella muenchen by selection for motility in the presence of anti-d (salmonella flagellar antigen) serum had both lost and gained one or more subfactors of the wild-type antigen. in one mutant codon 246 was gac (alanine) instead of gcc (asparagine); the other had a deletion of 105 base pairs, explicable by a 10bp direct repeat, starting at bases ... | 1991 | 1710314 |
| production of specific monoclonal antibodies to salmonella typhi flagellin and possible application to immunodiagnosis of typhoid fever. | four murine monoclonal antibodies (mabs) to salmonella typhi flagellin were produced. these mabs did not react with eight other enterobacterial strains tested: salmonella enteritidis, salmonella typhimurium, salmonella paratyphi a, escherichia coli, shigella flexneri, shigella sonnei, yersinia enterocolitica, and campylobacter jejuni. all four mabs cross-reacted with salmonella muenchen flagellin indicating specificity for d antigenic flagellar epitope. one mab (c4) was selected to develop a dou ... | 1990 | 2295860 |
| unique sequences in region vi of the flagellin gene of salmonella typhi. | the h1 (now renamed flic; lino et al., 1988) alleles specifying antigenically different salmonella flagellins are identical at their ends but differ greatly towards the middle, where there are two hypervariable segments (regions iv and vi). the flagellar antigen, d, of salmonella typhi, is found also as phase-1 antigen in many other salmonella species. we cloned the h1-d gene of a strain of s. typhi and determined the nucleotide sequence of its two hypervariable regions. comparison with gene h1- ... | 1989 | 2615651 |
| molecular epidemiology of bacterial infections: examples of methodology and of investigations of outbreaks. | plasmid profile analysis, plasmid and chromosomal bacterial restriction endonuclease dna analysis, and dna hybridization are increasingly used in clinical microbiology and epidemiology. these techniques have been applied, singly and in combination, to investigations of outbreaks, including those of diarrheal diseases caused by pandemic vibrio cholerae, enterotoxigenic and enterohemorrhagic escherichia coli, salmonella muenchen, and salmonella typhimurium. the techniques have been critical in the ... | 1986 | 3024288 |

| in a vaccine model, selected substitution of a highly stimulatory t cell epitope of hen's egg lysozyme into a salmonella flagellin does not result in a homologous, specific, cellular immune response and may alter the way in which the total antigen is processed. | a 13 amino acid peptide corresponding to a potent balb/c mouse t cell epitope of hen's egg lysozyme (hel) was substituted singly at five sites in the d flagellin of salmonella muenchen. the resulting chimeric proteins were unable to expand t cells capable of being stimulated by the hel epitope and induced t cell populations which either failed to respond or responded at a low level to a normally highly stimulatory flagellin t cell epitope that was present in all chimeras. the results suggested t ... | 1997 | 9139493 |

| pathogenesis of infections with salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar muenchen in the turtle trachemys scripta scripta. | the pathogenesis of salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar muenchen infections in the aquatic turtle trachemys scripta scripta was studied. after oral infection with 5x10(5)cfu of serovar muenchen of 10-14-month-old turtles, kept at 26 degrees c, the intestine and especially the ileum, caecum and colon was colonized. invasion of the intestinal wall, causing histopathological lesions, and colonization of internal organs were not observed. serovar muenchen was only isolated from turtles for 8 ... | 2002 | 12069769 |
| interactions of salmonella enterica serovar muenchen with macrophages of the turtle trachemys scripta scripta. | interactions of salmonella with macrophages have been studied in birds and, most extensively, in mammals. in these homeothermic animals, interactions between salmonella and macrophages are characterized by the following processes. after macropinocytosis, spacious phagosomes are formed within the macrophage. partial inhibition of phagosome-lysosome fusion and resistance to the formation of reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen intermediates enable the bacterium to survive and even multipl ... | 2002 | 11755678 |
