Preferred Label : CBir1 flagellin;
MeSH note : the flagellin, CBir1, identified by investigations in the C3H/HeJBir mouse model,
has been identified as a dominant antigen capable of inducing colitis in mice and
eliciting antibody responses in a subpopulation of patients with Crohn's disease;
the bacteria with genes that encode CBir1 are unknown; however, preliminary phylogenetic
data suggest that these flagellins are most closely related to the flagellins of bacteria
in the genera Butyrivibrio, Rosburia, Thermotoga, and Clostridium;
Is substance : O;
Origin ID : C502160;
UMLS CUI : C1571067;
