We report here the draft sequence of strain CEB14_0017, alias HIAD_DUP, recovered from a human patient and initially identified as Yersinia pestis by mass spectrometry analysis. Genotyping based on tandem repeat polymorphism assigned the strain to Yersinia pseudotuberculosis sequence type 42 (ST42). The total assembly length is 4,894,739 bp.

Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are immunogenic self-adjuvanting vesicles produced by Gram-negative bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. While the effects of OMVs on different antigens immune stimulation are not clear. In this study, we constructed recombinant Yersinia pseudotuberculosis ΔlpxL strain,with pBlue-PcrV and pBlue-OprF/I, and then purified ΔlpxL rOMVPcrV (rOMVyp2P)and ΔlpxL rOMVOprF/I (rOMVyp2F) and analyzed its effect on immune response and protection against Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 infection.

Yersiniosis due to can be associated with high morbidity and mortality in various species and has been a cosmopolitan management challenge in zoological institutions. This gram-negative, environmental bacterium thrives in cold, wet conditions and poses a risk to zoo species. Outbreaks can be costly and impact conservation efforts through loss of threatened and endangered species.

Kawasaki disease (KD) is a vasculitis mainly affecting children under five, with symptoms such as persistent fever, rash, red lips, strawberry tongue, conjunctivitis, and swollen hands and feet. Diagnosis is based on a fever lasting over five days plus at least four of these symptoms. Treatment includes intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and aspirin to reduce complications, especially coronary artery issues.

Background: Yersinia pseudotuberculosis is an emerging zoonotic intestinal pathogen primarily transmitted through contaminated food and water. Infections caused by Yersinia pseudotuberculosis are typically self-limiting, often presenting as gastroenteritis or "pseudoappendicitis," which is characterized by fever and abdominal pain. Although bloodstream infections with Yersinia pseudotuberculosis are rare, they can lead to multiple distant sites of infection, including abscesses in the liver, spleen, and kidneys, as well as in the hip and knee joints, particularly in individuals with underlying immunodeficiency.

() is a Gram-negative pathogen associated with gastrointestinal infections, such as enterocolitis. While complications like reactive arthritis can occur, progression to myositis is extremely rare. This report describes a five-year-old boy who developed myositis following a infection.
