Shaping Pulses to Control Bistable Biological Systems [PDF]
In this paper we study how to shape temporal pulses to switch a bistable system between its stable steady states. Our motivation for pulse-based control comes from applications in synthetic biology, where it is generally difficult to implement real-time ...

Influence of Different Transposon Families on Genomic Stability of Shewanella oneidensis MR1
This study aimed for targeted genome stabilisation in Shewanella oneidensis MR1 through two approaches: complete ISSOD2 inactivation via CRISPR‐deaminase‐mediated stop codon integration, and megaplasmid size reduction (35% deletion). Analysis revealed ISSOD2 as the most active transposon family (84% activity) and identified transposition hotspots for ...

Structural insights into chaperone addiction of toxin-antitoxin systems
SecB homologs can be associated with stress-responsive type II toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems and form tripartite toxin-antitoxin-chaperone systems (TAC).

A tetraspecific VHH-based neutralizing antibody modifies disease outcome in three animal models of Clostridium difficile infection [PDF]
Clostridium difficile infection (CDI), a leading cause of nosocomial infection, is a serious disease in North America, Europe, and Asia. CDI varies greatly from asymptomatic carriage to life-threatening diarrhea, toxic megacolon, and toxemia.

B Cells as a Host of Persistent Salmonella Typhimurium
B cells: a niche for persistent Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Tm). In vitro, within B cells and in the absence of antibiotics, a persistent population of S. Tm emerges, where the SehA/B gene is implicated. Additionally, a replicative population of S. Tm is also present. Upon antibiotic administration, approximately 90% of the S.
