Question

Microbiology: Virulence

Fill in the following chart appropriately by listing 5 different pathogens.

To each pathogen fill/write the route of infection, disease(s), Virulence Factor (pili/adhesion), Pathogenicity Island, phage or plasmid, Exotoxin or Endotoxin, Secretion system, and Antibiotic (with mode of action)

Challenge Chart Pathogen Route of Disease(s) Virulence Factor Pathogenicity Exotoxin or Secretion Antibiotic infection (pili/adhesin) land, phageEndotoxin System (with or plasmid mode of action)

Explanation / Answer

Type I secretion system (T1SS)

Mannheimia haemolytica

PATHOGEN ROUTE OF INFECTION DISEASE VIRULENCE FACTOR PATHOGENICITY ICELAND, PHAGE OR PLASMID EXOTOXIN OR ENDOTOXIN SECRETION SYSTEM ANTIBIOTIC Escherichia coli food borne urinary tract infection P fimbriae pahage Shiga toxin(endotoxin)
