Diarrhoeal disease caused by enteric bacterial pathogens has become less prevalent in industrialized countries, but remains an important cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries. Although better management of acute diarrhoeal episodes has led to more favourable outcomes, persistent diarrhoea remains a problem for which risk factors are ...

Meningitis remains a significant health problem for the older adult population. Although the overall incidence of this disease has decreased in the United States, the incidence of meningitis in the elderly population is increasing. Additionally, the recognition of meningitis in the older adult may be more difficult because the usual symptoms and signs ...

Bacterial Moonlighting Proteins and Bacterial Virulence
2011Implicit in the central dogma is the hypothesis that each protein gene product has but one function. However, over the past decade, it has become clear that many proteins have one or more unique functions, over-and-above the principal biological action of the specific protein.

‘Architecture is the adaptation of form to resist force’.John Ruskin (1874) SummaryIn free‐living eubacteria an external shell of peptidoglycan opposes internal hydrostatic pressure and prevents membrane rupture and death. At the same time, this wall imposes on each cell a shape.

Chronic Bacterial and Non‐bacterial Prostatitis
British Journal of Urology, 1983Summary— Chronic prostatitis is ill‐understood, difficult to diagnose and often unresponsive to treatment. To clarify some of the diagnostic difficulties 135 patients and 28 control subjects were prospectively studied. Patients with chronic bacterial prostatitis, chronic non‐bacterial prostatitis and recurrent non‐specific urethritis (NSU) without ...

CpG motifs in bacterial DNA and their immune effects.
Annual Review of Immunology, 2002Unmethylated CpG motifs are prevalent in bacterial but not vertebrate genomic DNAs. Oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) containing CpG motifs activate host defense mechanisms leading to innate and acquired immune responses. The recognition of CpG motifs requires

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2019 In all domains of life, genomes contain epigenetic information superimposed over the nucleotide sequence. Epigenetic signals control DNA-protein interactions and can cause phenotypic change in the absence of mutation. A nearly universal mechanism of epigenetic signalling is DNA methylation.

In the living world, each chemical reaction is catalyzed by its own enzyme. Enzymes exhibit a high specificity, as they are able to discriminate between slightly different substrate molecules. Furthermore, they have the ability to operate at moderate temperature, pressure, and pH, which makes them attractive catalysts for industrial and household ...

Annual Review of Genetics, 2010
Bacteria, like eukaryotes, employ cytoskeletal elements to perform many functions, including cell morphogenesis, cell division, DNA partitioning, and cell motility. They not only possess counterparts of eukaryotic actin, tubulin, and intermediate filament proteins, but they also have cytoskeletal elements of their own.

▪ Abstract Bacterial vaginosis represents a unique upheaval of the complex vaginal bacterial flora with disappearance of lactobacilli and overgrowth of Gardnerella vaginalis and resident anaerobic vaginal bacteria. Little progress has occurred in identifying causal factors, although the pathophysiology of this syndrome is better understood.
