Description |
Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella parapertussis and
Bordetella bronchiseptica are closely related Gram-negative
Beta-proteobacteria that colonizes the respiratory tracts of mammals. B.
parapertussis causes whooping cough in a wide range of animals. It produces
a complex array of adhesins, aggressins and toxins that are presumed to be
important in the colonisation of its human host and in ensuring its survival and
propagation. Adherence of B. parapertussis to ciliated epithelia is
species-specific making it unlikely that the transfer of B.
parapertussis between humans and sheep will result in an infection (Ref.1
& 2).
Glutathione in Bordetella is a tripeptide, composed of
Glutamate, Cysteine and Glycine, and has numerous important [...] |
