Query: NC_002940:78392 Haemophilus ducreyi 35000HP, complete genome

Lineage: Haemophilus ducreyi; Haemophilus; Pasteurellaceae; Pasteurellales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: This strain is a human passage derivative of Haemophilus ducreyi strain 35000 that is serum-resistant. Causative agent of chancroid. A group of organisms that are either obligate parasites or commensal organisms found in animal mucous membranes. Almost all species require the presence of important growth factors found in the blood of their hosts, including either X factor (protoporphyrin IX or heme) or V factor (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD or NADP)). This organism is an obligate human pathogen that causes the sexually transmitted disease chancroid (ulcer of the genital region) and it enhances the transmission of HIV (which enhances Haemophilus ducreyi transmission in turn). This organism is an apparent extracellular pathogen that resists phagocytosis. Some of the virulence factors include an outer membrane serum resistance protein, as well as two toxins, cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) and hemolysin, both of which contribute to tissue destruction.

Subject: NC_015424:1987964 Aeromonas veronii B565 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Aeromonas veronii; Aeromonas; Aeromonadaceae; Aeromonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Aeromonas veronii is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium found in fresh water and in association with animals. It can be a pathogen of humans and a beneficial symbiont of leeches. In humans A. veronii can cause diseases ranging from wound infections and diarrhea to septicemia in immunocompromised patients. In leeches, this bacterium is thought to function in the digestion of blood, provision of nutrients or preventing other bacteria from growing.
