Yersinia-pseudotuberculosis

Fe-2S]-containing flavoprotein from the 3,6-dideoxyhexose biosynthetic pathway of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis [106], has been successful as a substitute for the as yet unidentified endogenous reductase [105].

Two 6-deoxyheptoses, namely 6-deoxy-D-wa o-heptose and 6-deoxy-D-a//ra-heptose, are components of bacterial polysaccharides. The former occurs as o-pyranosyl residues in the LPS from some strains of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis,and the latter as terminal a-furanosyl groups (II) in...

CDP-6-deoxy-D-xy/o-hexos-4-ulose (7b) serves as a precursor in the biosynthesis of CDP-3,6-dideoxyhexoses28,168 having the d-ribo (paratose, 3,6-dideoxy- D-glucose ), o-xylo (abequose, 3,6-dideoxy- D-galactose ), and d-arabino (tyvelose, 3,6-dideoxy- D-mannose ) configurations. These monosaccharides are characteristic components of O-specific polysaccharides from Salmonella and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. 

The hexosylulose derivative 7c may also be converted into the GDP derivative of colitose (3,6-dideoxy-L-xy/o-hexose, 3,6-dideoxy- L-galact-ose ),161,195 a component of lipopolysaccharides from several enterobacterial strains. Another monosaccharide of this group, ascarylose (3,6-dideoxy-L-arabino-hexose, 3,6-dideoxy- L-mannose ), which is present in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis lipopolysaccharides, was found to be synthesized as the CDP derivative through epimerization and reduction of CDP-6-deoxy-D-xy/o-hexos-4-ulose.168 171...

Yersinia enterocolitica or Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, Pneumocystis proved (29), Staphylococcus aureus (128), Cunninghamella bertholletiae (127), and Rhizopus spp. have been involved. The diagnosis of these spontaneously rare infections may be even more difficult, because the deferoxamine-associated form can have an unusual and atypical course.
