YersinSpeciesImportant

Yersin2

• Y. pestis was discovered in 1894 by Alexandre Yersin, a Swiss/French physician and bacteriologist from the Pasteur Institute, during an epidemic of the plague in Hong Kong. (wikipedia.org)
• Discovered in Honkong in 1894 AD by Yersin and Kitasato. (overallscience.com)

Species3

• Similar to other Yersinia species, it tests negative for urease, lactose fermentation, and indole. (wikipedia.org)
• It also hosts two other plasmids, pPCP1 (also called pPla or pPst) and pMT1 (also called pFra) that are not carried by the other Yersinia species. (wikipedia.org)
• The Yop-Ysc T3SS is a critical component of virulence for Yersinia species. (wikipedia.org)

Important1

• pFra codes for a phospholipase D that is important for the ability of Y. pestis to be transmitted by fleas. (wikipedia.org)
