 ##serotype - Serotypes are classifications within a species of bacteria or virus.  These classifications are based on distinctive surface structures on the bacteria.[http://www.cdc.gov/salmonella/reportspubs/salmonella-atlas/serotyping-importance.html CDC.gov]
 # Write an outline of the article.  The length should be a minimum of the equivalent of 2 pages of standard 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper (you can use the "Print Preview" option in your browser to see the length).  Your outline can be in any form you choose, but you should utilize the wiki syntax of headers and either numbered or bulleted lists to create it.  The text of the outline does not have to be complete sentences, but it should answer the questions listed below and have enough information so that others can follow it.  However, your outline should be in YOUR OWN WORDS, not copied straight from the article.
 #* What is the importance or significance of this work (i.e., your species)?
 #**This paper releases to other scientists data about Shigella flexneri.  This is important because it will allow further study of this pervasive bacteria that hurts China and other third world countries by creating Shigellosis. Since this bacteria and the disease that comes with it is a leading cause of death in the world it is important that people are able to study it, and this paper enables them to do just that.

 #* What were the methods used in the study?
 #* Briefly state the result shown in each of the figures and tables.
 #* How do the results of this study compare to the results of previous studies (See Discussion).
 For the genome paper (Coder and QA only): in addition to the journal article, please find and review the Model Organism Database (MOD) for your species similarly to what you did to review your assigned database for the ''NAR'' assignment.  After an email exchange with Dr. Dahlquist, Trixie and I decided to go with [http://www.mgc.ac.cn/ShiBASE/ this] database.

 ##pathogenicity islands - The segment of genetic material within an organism(in this case within the bacteria) that gives the organism the ability to cause disease. [http://www.medicinenet.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=20705 This helped.]
 ##enteric - I just used the google dictionary for this: [https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=enteric] It means relating to the intestines, so it isn't really strictly a biological term.
