Division of Bacterial and Mycotic Diseases, Centers for Disease Control, Atlanta, Georgia 30333.

The isoprenoid quinone contents of seven strains of "Afipia felis," the type strains of "A. clevelandensis" and "A. broomeae," and reference strains of three unnamed "Afipia" genospecies were determined by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The quinone profiles of all "Afipia" strains were essentially identical, with ubiquinone 10 as the major component. The identity of ubiquinone 10 was confirmed by mass spectrometry.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D011809	Quinones	Hydrocarbon rings which contain two ketone moieties in any position. They can be substituted in any position except at the ketone groups.
D002372	Cat-Scratch Disease	A self-limiting bacterial infection of the regional lymph nodes caused by AFIPIA felis, a gram-negative bacterium recently identified by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and by BARTONELLA HENSELAE. It usually arises one or more weeks following a feline scratch, with raised inflammatory nodules at the site of the scratch being the primary symptom.
