Pathogenic potential of a collagenase gene from<i>Aeromonas veronii</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The role of collagenase as a mechanism of bacterial pathogenicity in some pathogenic bacteria has been reported. The information on the role of collagenase in Aeromonas spp. pathogenesis is scant. In the present study, a mutant Aeromonas veronii RY001 that is deficient in the putative collagenase gene acg was constructed and compared with the wild-type strain for virulence factors. Bacterial cells and cell-free extracellular products of the mutant had significantly less collagenolytic activity, but there were not significant differences in caseinolytic, gelatinolytic, and elastolytic activities. Adhesion and invasion abilities of the mutant strain on epithelioma papillosum of carp cells was only 56% of that of the wild-type strain, and the cytotoxicity of the mutant strain to epithelioma papillosum of carp cells was only 42% of that of the wild-type strain. The LD50 values of the wild-type strain were determined as 1.6 x 10(6) and 3.5 x 10(5) cfu in goldfish and mice, respectively, whereas the mutant RY001 strain showed slightly higher values (i.e., 2.8 x 10(6) and 1.4 x 10(6) cfu in goldfish and mice, respectively). These results indicated the involvement of the collagenase gene in the pathogenesis of A. veronii.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
