Homology with a repeated Yersinia pestis DNA sequence IS100 correlates with pesticin sensitivity in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis.

Abstract:

:We have identified IS100 sequences in a specific subset of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis isolates that were also sensitive to the Y. pestis-produced bacteriocin, pesticin. In contrast, Y. pseudotuberculosis strains which did not contain IS100 sequences were not sensitive to pesticin. We propose that IS100 serves as a molecular marker that identifies a subset of Y. pseudotuberculosis isolates that have a particularly close evolutionary and/or ecological relationship with Y. pestis.
