Yersinia pestis biovar Antiqua str. UG05-0454

Y. pestis UG05-0454 was isolated from a bubo aspirate from a 10 year old female patient on 10/27/2004. The culture was confirmed at the CDC central laboratory in Arua, Uganda. The isolate is positive for anti-F1 direct fluorescent antibody and was lysed by Y. pestis-specific bacteriophage. UG05-0454 is sensitive to chloramphenicol, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, streptomycin, and doxycycline. The isolate is glycerol positive/nitrate positive, and hence belongs to biovar Antiqua. Virulence studies showed that 3.21 x 103 cfu killed mice within four days.
