Example sentences for: enterobacteria
How can you use “enterobacteria” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In the group of enterobacteria, it was possible to classify transferred genes relative to their date of acquisition in the three strains of E. coli . Thus, we identified transferred genes acquired before the separation of the two strains O157:H7 ('ancient transfers') and those acquired in one of the two strains O157:H7 after their separation ('recent transfers').
The RecT/Redβ superfamily members, namely EHAP1 from the enterobacteria and PF161 from Borrelia hermsii, contain a small, C-terminal fragment of the core conserved domain of the ERF superfamily, which is located C-terminal of their bona fide RecT/Redβ domains.
For this purpose, we used five closely related genomes in the enterobacteria group: E. coli O157:H7 EDL933 [ 11 ] , E. coli O157:H7 Sakaï [ 29 ] , E. coli K12 [ 30 ] , Salmonella enterica [ 31 ] , and S. typhimurium LT2 [ 10 ] ; three closely related genomes in the alpha-proteobacteria group: Helicobacter pylori J99 [ 32 ] , H. pylori 26695 [ 33 ] , and Campylobacter jejunii [ 34 ] ; and three closely related genomes in the Streptococcus genus: S. pneumoniae R6 [ 35 ] , S. pneumoniae TIGR4 [ 36 ] , and S. pyogenes [ 12 ] . We considered as unambiguous the relationships between these bacteria because, for example, the orthologous genes of the two strains of E. coli O157:H7 are almost identical at the nucleotide level, while they show noticeable differences from E. coli K12 (data not shown).
Moreover, when it was possible to measure the amount of lost genes (that is, in enterobacteria), we have found that they also tend to be more A+T-rich than the genome (Mann-Whitney test, p < 10 -4; results not shown), suggesting a greater turnover of A+T-rich genes.
In enterobacteria, the native genes generally avoid the three codons ATA, AGA, and AGG, while the transferred genes show little or no codon bias for the corresponding amino acids.
