Besides gastroenteritis, arthralgia, and Guillain-Barre syndrome are important clinical complications of Campylobacter infections in man.

Noticeable is the fact that no classical enterotoxins are known for C. jejuni. The sequencing of the complete genome revealed that C. jejuni possesses one single trimeric cytotoxin, called cytolethal distending toxin (CdtABC). Other previously suspected toxins could not be confirmed by sequence analysis. However, a number of alternative virulence-associated factors have been identified so far. The multidrug efflux pump CmeABC faciliates, by \"neutralization\" of bile salts, the survival of C. jejuni in the avian as well as in the human intestine. Furthermore it is responsible for resistance to heavy metal ions and to certain antibiotics. The flagellum of C. jejuni mediates not only the targeted motility directed by three families of chemo- and aerotaxis receptors. A homologue of a type-III-secretion-system integrated in the flagellar apparatus is functionally involved in the cell-invasion process. Thus, a whole group of proteins termed Campylobacter invasion antigens (Cia) is injected into the host cell via the flagellar transport mechanism during the process of host cell invasion. Further pathogenicity-associated determinants are the polysaccharide capsule and specific glycosylation of the lipooligosaccharide (LOS). It has been shown that C. jejuni strains with sialylation of the lipooligosaccharide display increased invasiveness. These strains are also responsible for the development of the Guillain-Barre-syndrome, through molecular mimicry with gangliosides of the central nervous system. In the past, many colonization-related factors have been identified with the help of transposon-induced mutagenesis and chicken colonization models. Using this and other modern molecular biology methods, combined with appropriate animal models such as gnotobiotic mice in which symptomatic campylobacteriosis can be established, it is hoped to identify additional virulence-associated factors."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.2376/0003-925X-61-91"],["dc.identifier.isi","000280167900003"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/19946"],["dc.notes.status","zu prĂĽfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","M H Schaper Gmbh Co Kg"],["dc.relation.issn","0003-925X"],["dc.title","Campylobacter jejuni - The Search for virulence-associated factors"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

In line with this, we investigated the plasmid-resistome of seven blaOXA-48 gene-carrying Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates, which were isolated between 2013 and 2014 at the University Medical Center in Göttingen, Germany. All isolates were subjected to complete genome sequencing including the reconstruction of entire plasmid sequences. In addition, phenotypic resistance testing was conducted. The seven isolates comprised both disease-associated isolates and colonizers isolated from five patients. They fell into two clusters of three sequence type (ST)101 and two ST11 isolates, respectively; and ST15 and ST23 singletons. The seven isolates harbored various plasmids of the incompatibility (Inc) groups IncF, IncL/M, IncN, IncR, and a novel plasmid chimera. All blaOXA-48 genes were encoded on the IncL/M plasmids. Of note, distinct phenotypical resistance patterns associated with different sets of resistance genes encoded by IncL/M and IncR plasmids were observed among isolates of the ST101 cluster in spite of high phylogenetic relatedness of the bacterial chromosomes, suggesting nosocomial transmission. This highlights the importance of plasmid uptake and plasmid recombination events for the fast generation of resistance variability after clonal transmission.

During the past decade, hypervirulent PCR-ribotypes (RT) e.g., RT027 or RT176 emerged rapidly all over the world, associated with both, increased severity and mortality rates. It is thus of great importance to identify epidemic strains such as RT027 and RT176 as fast as possible. While commonly used diagnostic methods, e.g., multilocus sequence typing (MLST) or PCR-ribotyping, are time-consuming, proteotyping offers a fast, inexpensive, and reliable alternative solution. In this study, we established a MALDI-TOF-based typing scheme for C. difficile. A total of 109 ribotyped strains representative for five MLST clades were analyzed by MALDI-TOF. MLST, based on whole genome sequences, and PCR-ribotyping were used as reference methods. Isoforms of MS-detectable biomarkers, typically ribosomal proteins, were related with the deduced amino acid sequences and added to the C. difficile proteotyping scheme. In total, we were able to associate nine biomarkers with their encoding genes and include them in our proteotyping scheme. The discriminatory capacity of the C. difficile proteotyping scheme was mainly based on isoforms of L28-M (2 main isoforms), L35-M (4 main isoforms), and S20-M (2 main isoforms) giving rise to at least 16 proteotyping-derived types. In our test population, five of these 16 proteotyping-derived types were detected. These five proteotyping-derived types did not correspond exactly to the included five MLST-based C. difficile clades, nevertheless the subtyping depth of both methods was equivalent. Most importantly, proteotyping-derived clade B contained only isolates of the hypervirulent RT027 and RT176. Proteotyping is a stable and easy-to-perform intraspecies typing method and a promising alternative to currently used molecular techniques. It is possible to distinguish the group of RT027 and RT176 isolates from non-RT027/non-RT176 isolates using proteotyping, providing a valuable diagnostic tool."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3389/fmicb.2019.02087"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/16398"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/62451"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","1664-302X"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Proteotyping of Clostridioides difficile as Alternate Typing Method to Ribotyping Is Able to Distinguish the Ribotypes RT027 and RT176 From Other Ribotypes"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

In contrast to Campylobacter jejuni, about 5 % of Campylobacter coli strains exhibit susceptibility to restriction endonuclease digestion by DpnI cutting specifically 5'-G(m)ATC-3' motifs. This indicates significant differences in DNA methylation between both microbial species. The goal of the study was to analyze the methylome of a C. coli strain susceptible to DpnI digestion, to identify its methylation motifs and restriction modification systems (RM-systems), and compare them to related organisms like C. jejuni and Helicobacter pylori. Results: Using one SMRT cell and the PacBio RS sequencing technology followed by PacBio Modification and Motif Analysis the complete genome of the DpnI susceptible strain C. coli BfR-CA-9557 was sequenced to 500-fold coverage and assembled into a single contig of 1.7 Mbp. The genome contains a CJIE1-like element prophage and is phylogenetically closer to C. coli clade 1 isolates than clade 3. 45,881 6-methylated adenines (ca. 2.7 % of genome positions) that are predominantly arranged in eight different methylation motifs and 1,788 4-methylated cytosines (ca. 0.1 %) have been detected. Only two of these motifs correspond to known restriction modification motifs. Characteristic for this methylome was the very high fraction of methylation of motifs with mostly above 99 %. Conclusions: Only five dominant methylation motifs have been identified in C. jejuni, which have been associated with known RM-systems. C. coli BFR-CA-9557 shares one (RAATTY) of these, but four ORFs could be assigned to putative Type I RM-systems, seven ORFs to Type II RM-systems and three ORFs to Type IV RM-systems. In accordance with DpnI prescreening RM-system IIP, methylation of GATC motifs was detected in C. coli BfR-CA-9557. A homologous IIP RM-system has been described for H. pylori. The remaining methylation motifs are specific for C. coli BfR-CA-9557 and have been neither detected in C. jejuni nor in H. pylori.

All isolates were subjected to phenotypic antimicrobial resistance testing, PCR-based screening for toxin genes and mass spectrometry-based exclusion of ribotypes 027 and 176.
