  10. Activity of a holin-endolysin system in the insecticidal pathogenicity island of Yersinia enterocolitica

    • Journal of Bacteriology

    • Yersinia enterocolitica is a pathogen that causes gastroenteritis in humans. Because of its low temperature-dependent insecticidal activity, it can oscillate between invertebrates and mammals as host organisms. The insecticidal activity of strain W22703 is associated with a pathogenicity island of 19 kb (Tc-PAIYe), which carries regulators and genes encoding the toxin complex (Tc).

  13. Avian Influenza A Virus Infection among Workers at Live Poultry Markets, China, 2013–2016

    • Emerging Infectious Diseases

    • We conducted a 3-year longitudinal serologic survey on an open cohort of poultry workers, swine workers, and general population controls to assess avian influenza A virus (AIV) seroprevalence and seroincidence and virologic diversity at live poultry markets (LPMs) in Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province, China. Of 964 poultry workers, 9 (0.93%) were seropositive for subtype H7N9 virus, 18 (1.87%) for H9N2, and 18 (1.87%) for H5N1.
