Disease relevance of Moraxella

 

High impact information on Moraxella

  • Gene organization and primary structure of human hormone-sensitive lipase: possible significance of a sequence homology with a lipase of Moraxella TA144, an antarctic bacterium [6].
  • In contrast, related Moraxella subspecies (n = 13) or other human pathogenic bacteria (n = 13) do not bind C3 or methylamine-treated C3 [7].
  • The UspA1 mutants showed a decreased C4BP binding (37.6% reduction), whereas the UspA2-deficient Moraxella mutants displayed a strongly reduced (94.6%) C4BP binding compared with the wild type [8].
  • Reaction mechanism of fluoroacetate dehalogenase from Moraxella sp. B [9].
  • Two extended regions of significant sequence homology with hormone-sensitive lipase and with lipase 2 from Moraxella TA144 were identified, whereas similarity to carboxyl esterases was restricted to the region encompassing the putative active site, indicating that DAC should be classified as esterase [10].

Gene context of Moraxella

  • Analysis of the immunological responses to transferrin and lactoferrin receptor proteins from Moraxella catarrhalis [24].
  • The Moraxella sp. strain B gene dehH1, encoding fluoroacetate dehalogenase, was placed under the control of both the GPD1 and CYC1 promoters [25].
  • Cefcanel was hydrolyzed by TEM-1, TEM-3 and Moraxella Bro-1 beta-lactamases [26].
  • A hemolytic bystander assay was used to assess the functional serum mannose-binding lectin (MBL) activating capacity of five isolates of Moraxella catarrhalis obtained from children who suffered recurrent acute otitis media episodes [27].
  • One detectable cytoplasmic SOD was identified in the human mucosal pathogen Moraxella catarrhalis, and the gene responsible for the SOD activity, sodA, was isolated from a recent pediatric clinical isolate (strain 7169) [28].
