| development of real-time pcr assays for the detection of moraxella macacae associated with bloody nose syndrome in rhesus (macaca mulatta) and cynomolgus (macaca fascicularis) macaques. | moraxella macacae is a recently described bacterial pathogen that causes epistaxis or so-called bloody nose syndrome in captive macaques. the aim of this study was to develop specific molecular diagnostic assays for m. macacae and to determine their performance characteristics. | 2015 | 26365904 |
| genome sequence of moraxella macacae 0408225, a novel bacterial species isolated from a cynomolgus macaque with epistaxis. | moraxella macacae is a recently described bacterial species that has been associated with at least two outbreaks of epistaxis in macaques. here we present the first genome sequence of this novel species, isolated from a symptomatic cynomolgus macaque at the u.s. army medical research institute of infectious diseases. | 2013 | 23409273 |
| molecular characterization of plasmid pmoma1of moraxella macacae, a newly described bacterial pathogen of macaques. | we report the complete nucleotide sequence and characterization of a small cryptic plasmid of moraxella macacae 0408225, a newly described bacterial species within the family moraxellaceae and a causative agent of epistaxis in macaques. the complete nucleotide sequence of the plasmid pmoma1 was determined and found to be 5,375 bp in size with a gc content of 37.4 %. computer analysis of the sequence data revealed five open reading frames encoding putative proteins of 54.4 kda (orf1), 17.6 kda (o ... | 2015 | 25398380 |
