| cholera-like illness due to aeromonas sobria. | a thai woman from bangkok was admitted to a hospital in paris for a cholera-like illness. a culture of her "rice-water" diarrhea was negative for vibrio cholerae and enterotoxigenic escherichia coli but was positive for aeromonas sobria. this strain produced enterotoxin, cytolysin, proteolysin, hemolysin, and a cell-rounding factor. acute -and convalescent-phase sera showed an increase in neutralizing antibodies to enterotoxin, cytolysin, and hemolysin. the enterotoxin, which was labile at 100 c ... | 1982 | 7054327 |
| a toxigenic profile of aeromonas hydrophila and aeromonas sobria isolated from fish. | forty strains of motile aeromonas were isolated from healthy and diseased fish. these strains were identified as a. hydrophila or a a. sobria. it was found that only strains of a. hydrophila produced a dermonecrotic factor and two zones of hemolysis on blood agar. all the strains of a. sobria tested and 72% of the a. hydrophila were enterotoxigenic. finally, we observed that only a. hydrophila strains could regularly produce hemolysin at 10 degrees c. | 1981 | 7237279 |
| serogrouping of motile aeromonas species isolated from healthy and moribund fish. | a total of 195 strains of motile aeromonas isolated from fish were characterized as aeromonas hydrophila and aeromonas sobria. in view of the frequency of isolation and the importance of motile aeromonas species as fish pathogens, a serological classificaton of these organisms was attempted. antisera were prepared in rabbits against formalinized whole cell suspensions and against boiled cells of 12 different isolates. seventy-six strains could be grouped by tube agglutination with whole cells as ... | 1981 | 7259164 |

| variable expression of o-antigen and the role of lipopolysaccharide as an adhesin in aeromonas sobria. | on initial isolation of aeromonas sobria 3767 from a diarrhoeal stool specimen, two colony types were obtained: opaque (3767o) and translucent (3767t). strain 3767o consistently produced lipopolysaccharide (lps) core and o-antigen side chain, detectable by sds-page and by western blotting with an o-antigen-specific monoclonal antibody. strain 3767t produced lps core but the amount of o-antigen was dependent on factors including growth medium and bacterial growth phase. strain 3767t exhibited sig ... | 1994 | 7525403 |
| a clinical isolate of aeromonas sobria with three chromosomally mediated inducible beta-lactamases: a cephalosporinase, a penicillinase and a third enzyme, displaying carbapenemase activity. | hydrolytic profiles of aeromonas sobria 163a, non-induced and induced, and of a derepressed mutant 163a-m, indicate that this strain has inducible beta-lactamases with activities against cephalosporins, penicillins and carbapenems. three enzymes were identified and two of the beta-lactamase genes, amps, encoding a penicillinase and ceps, encoding a cephalosporinase, were cloned into escherichia coli, permitting analysis of the individual enzymes. isoelectric focusing (ief) analysis using inhibit ... | 1995 | 7759391 |
| cloning and expression of a cloxacillin-hydrolyzing enzyme and a cephalosporinase from aeromonas sobria aer 14m in escherichia coli: requirement for an e. coli chromosomal mutation for efficient expression of the class d enzyme. | two beta-lactamase genes, asba1 and asbb1, encoding asba1 and asbb1, respectively, have been cloned from aeromonas sobria aer 14m into escherichia coli. asba1 was expressed at low but detectable levels in all e. coli laboratory cloning strains tested. asbb1 was expressed well in the e. coli cloning strain dh5 alpha. however, no enzyme activity could be detected from the same clone when placed in e. coli mc1061. ampicillin-resistant mutants of e. coli mc1061 were obtained that expressed high leve ... | 1994 | 7811022 |
| isolation and characterization of the prolyl aminopeptidase gene (pap) from aeromonas sobria: comparison with the bacillus coagulans enzyme. | the aeromonas sobria pap gene encoding prolyl aminopeptidase (pap) was cloned. it consists of 425 codons and encodes a homotetrameric enzyme of 205 kda. the purified enzyme showed an almost absolute specificity for amino-terminal proline. proline and hydroxyproline residues from many peptide and amide substrates could be easily removed, while no activity was detected for substrates having other amino terminals. the enzyme was very similar to that from bacillus coagulans in many aspects, such as ... | 1994 | 7883756 |
| prolyl aminopeptidase is not a sulfhydryl enzyme: identification of the active serine residue by site-directed mutagenesis. | prolyl aminopeptidase (pap) has been classified as a sulfhydryl enzyme on the basis of its high sensitivity to p-chloromercuribenzoate and heavy metals. recently, however, the possibility of pap being instead a serine enzyme has been raised as a result of two observations--the conservation of some residues among the paps hitherto sequenced, and a similarity to some serine hydrolases. this is the first report describing an attempt to identify the active residue by site-directed mutagenesis. the p ... | 1994 | 7896753 |

| characterization of mesophilic aeromonas from clinical specimens by computerized analysis of sds-page protein profiles and by enzymatic activity. | mesophilic aeromonas (aeromonas hydrophila, aeromonas sobria, aeromonas caviae) have recently been considered important aetiological agents of human diseases, mainly gastrointestinal infections. although several findings have pointed out the significance of this group of microorganisms as enteric pathogens and suggested the presence of virulence factors, epidemiological and clinical studies are limited by the difficulty of correctly identifying mesophilic aeromonas at the species level. sds-page ... | 1993 | 8264423 |
| distribution of mesophilic aeromonas species in raw and ready-to-eat fish and meat products in switzerland. | a total of 829 poultry, meat, shellfish and fish products commonly consumed in switzerland were qualitatively and quantitatively examined for the presence of mesophilic aeromonas spp. overall, aeromonads occurred in 24.1% of the samples. raw food products were frequently contaminated (e.g. 94.1% in minced meat), with colony counts up to 6.0 x 10(6)/g. some ready-to-eat products had a relatively high percentage of positive samples as well, such as cooked ham in slices (38.2%), mortadella (12.9%), ... | 1993 | 8268055 |

| spectrum of extraintestinal disease due to aeromonas species in tropical queensland, australia. | during a 12-month period, the clinical spectrum of extraintestinal disease due to aeromonas species was determined for 56 patients in tropical queensland (australia). forty-six patients acquired their infection in the community, six patients were infected in the hospital, and four patients were colonized. demographic risk factors included male gender (67%) and aboriginal ethnic background (35%). the disease ranged from deep-seated infection (four cases) to soft-tissue infection of varying intens ... | 1993 | 8513068 |
| sequence analysis of two chromosomally mediated inducible beta-lactamases from aeromonas sobria, strain 163a, one a class d penicillinase, the other an ampc cephalosporinase. | two beta-lactamase genes from aeromonas sobria, strain 163a, have been cloned and sequenced, one encoding a typical class c cephalosporinase, designated ceps, the other a class d penicillinase, designated amps. ceps is predicted to be a mature protein of 38 kda with a pi value of 7.0. the amino acid sequence of ceps is most similar to that of ampc from pseudomonas aeruginosa (54.7%). amps is predicted to be a mature protein of 27 kda with a pi value of 7.9 that mostly closely resembles blad from ... | 1995 | 8537283 |
