Differential Distribution of the wlaN and cgtB Genes, Associated with Guillain-Barré Syndrome, in Campylobacter jejuni Isolates from Humans, Broiler Chickens, and Wild Birds.

TL;DR: A differential prevalence of the genes wlaN and cgtB in C. jejuni isolates from three different ecological niches suggests a host-dependent distribution, andGene sequencing identified the presence of new variants of the G- homopolymeric tract within the wLAN gene, and detected two variants of a G rich region within the cGTB gene.
Journal ArticleDOI
A New Variant of the aadE-sat4-aphA-3 Gene Cluster Found in a Conjugative Plasmid from a MDR Campylobacter jejuni Isolate
Pedro Guirado,Elisenda Miró,Yaidelis Iglesias-Torrens,Ferran Navarro,Susana Campoy,Tyler Alioto,Jèssica Gómez-Garrido,Cristina Madrid,Carlos Balsalobre +8 more
TL;DR: The presence of a plasmid in a multi-drug-resistant C. jejuni strain isolated from a gastroenteritis patient revealed an undescribed variant of the aadE-sat4-aphA-3 gene cluster, providing resistance to at least kanamycin and gentamycin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Host‐associated variability of the cdtABC operon, coding for the cytolethal distending toxin, in Campylobacter jejuni
Pedro Guirado,Yaidelis Iglesias-Torrens,Elisenda Miró,Ferran Navarro,Camile Stephan-Otto Attolini,Carlos Balsalobre,Cristina Madrid +6 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that PCR methodology is inaccurate to characterize the prevalence of the cdt genes, since negative PCR detection can be the result of divergences in the sequence used for primer design rather than indicating the absence of a specific gene.
