Journal ArticleDOI
Complete Genome Sequence of Enterohemorrhagic Eschelichia coli O157:H7 and Genomic Comparison with a Laboratory Strain K-12
Tetsuya Hayashi,Kozo Makino,Makoto Ohnishi,Ken Kurokawa,Kazuo Ishii,Katsushi Yokoyama,Chang Gyun Han,Eiichi Ohtsubo,Keisuke Nakayama,Takahiro Murata,Masashi Tanaka,Toru Tobe,Tetsuya Iida,Hideto Takami,Takeshi Honda,Chihiro Sasakawa,Naotake Ogasawara,Teruo Yasunaga,Satoru Kuhara,Tadayoshi Shiba,Masahira Hattori,Hideo Shinagawa +21 more
TL;DR: The complete chromosome sequence of an O157:H7 strain isolated from the Sakai outbreak is reported, and the results of genomic comparison with a benign laboratory strain, K-12 MG1655, are identified, which may represent the fundamental backbone of the E. coli chromosome.
Journal ArticleDOI
The R‐type pyocin of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is related to P2 phage, and the F‐type is related to lambda phage
Keisuke Nakayama,Kayoko Takashima,Hiroshi Ishihara,Tomoyuki Shinomiya,Makoto Kageyama,Shigehiko Kanaya,Makoto Ohnishi,Takahiro Murata,Hirotada Mori,Tetsuya Hayashi +9 more
TL;DR: The results clearly demonstrated that the R‐type pyocin is derived from a common ancestral origin with P2 phage and the F‐type from λ phage, and supported by identification of a lysis gene cassette similar to those for bacteriophages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genomic diversity of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157 revealed by whole genome PCR scanning
Makoto Ohnishi,Jun Terajima,Ken Kurokawa,Keisuke Nakayama,Takahiro Murata,Kazumichi Tamura,Yoshitoshi Ogura,Haruo Watanabe,Tetsuya Hayashi +8 more
TL;DR: Prophages, including Shiga toxin-transducing phages, exhibited extensive structural and positional diversity, implying that variation of bacteriophages is a major factor in generating genomic diversity among the O157 lineage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complete Nucleotide Sequence of a Staphylococcus aureus Exfoliative Toxin B Plasmid and Identification of a Novel ADP-Ribosyltransferase, EDIN-C
Takayuki Yamaguchi,Tetsuya Hayashi,Hideto Takami,Makoto Ohnishi,Takahiro Murata,Keisuke Nakayama,Kayo Asakawa,Masaru Ohara,Hitoshi Komatsuzawa,Motoyuki Sugai +9 more
TL;DR: Although the ETB plasmids are highly heterogeneous in genome size, the fundamental genome organization is well conserved and the size variation of the plasmid is mainly attributed to defined regions which may be hot spots for gene shuffling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complete Nucleotide Sequence of Plasmid Rts1: Implications for Evolution of Large Plasmid Genomes
Takahiro Murata,Makoto Ohnishi,Takeshi Ara,Jun Kaneko,Chang Gyun Han,Yong Fang Li,Kayoko Takashima,Hideaki Nojima,Keisuke Nakayama,Akira Kaji,Yoshiyuki Kamio,Takeyoshi Miki,Hirotada Mori,Hirotada Mori,Eiichi Ohtsubo,Yoshiro Terawaki,Tetsuya Hayashi +16 more
TL;DR: Inspecting of the overall genome organization revealed that the Rts1 genome is composed of four large modules, providing an example of modular evolution of plasmid genomes.
