Extracellular vesicles deliver Mycobacterium RNA to promote host immunity and bacterial killing
EMBO Reports, 2019 Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been shown to carry microbial components and function in the host defense against infections. In this study, we demonstrate that Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) RNA is delivered into macrophage‐derived EVs through an M.

Prediction of Novel Bacterial Small RNAs From RIL-Seq RNA–RNA Interaction Data
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 The genomic revolution and subsequent advances in large-scale genomic and transcriptomic technologies highlighted hidden genomic treasures. Among them stand out non-coding small RNAs (sRNAs), shown to play important roles in post-transcriptional ...

PLoS ONE, 2019 Sputum often contains large amounts of contaminating bacterial DNA that, if not eliminated during RNA isolation, may interfere with gene expression studies. During RNA isolation only repeated DNase treatment can effectively remove contaminating bacterial

Subinhibitory concentrations of trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole prevent biofilm formation by Acinetobacter baumannii through inhibition of Csu pilus expression [PDF]
, 2017 Acinetobacter baumannii is emerging as a multidrug-resistant nosocomial pathogen of increasing threat to human health worldwide. Pili are important bacterial virulence factors, playing a role in attachment to host cells and biofilm formation.

Bacterial RNA polymerase caps RNA with various cofactors and cell wall precursors
Nucleic Acids Research, 2017 Bacterial RNA polymerase is able to initiate transcription with adenosine-containing cofactor NAD+, which was proposed to result in a portion of cellular RNAs being ‘capped’ at the 5′ end with NAD+, reminiscent of eukaryotic cap. Here we show that, apart

Host A-to-I RNA editing signatures in intracellular bacterial and single-strand RNA viral infections
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 BackgroundMicrobial infection is accompanied by remodeling of the host transcriptome. Involvement of A-to-I RNA editing has been reported during viral infection but remains to be elucidated during intracellular bacterial infections.ResultsHerein we ...

Overlapping transcription and bacterial RNA removal [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014 The precise understanding of the biology of a living cell requires the identification and quantification of the molecular components necessary to sustain life. One such element is RNA. Two independent high-throughput strategies are available to identify the entire collection of RNA molecules produced by a cell population, which is currently known as ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.
