"Capnocytophaga canimorsus" : discovery of a deglycosylation mechanism that links metabolism to pathogenesis [PDF]
We show that C. canimorsus (Cc) can serve as a recipient for RP4 mediated conjugation but there is neither replication of broad host range plasmid vectors nor expression of commonly used E. coli markers in C. canimorsus.

The ambivalent role of Bacteroides in enteric infections. [PDF]
Bacteroides spp. are increasingly used as model gut commensals in cocolonization studies with enteropathogens. The collective findings imply common themes of colonization resistance but also pathogen crossfeeding.

Phages infecting Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron
ABSTRACT Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron is a prevalent human gut commensal that plays an important role in polysaccharide breakdown and is of interest as a probiotic candidate. We report isolation of lytic phages able to infect B.

Positive regulators of Bacteroides CTnDOT excision and transfer [PDF]
Tetracycline stimulates both excision and transfer of a Bacteroides Conjugative transposon CTnDOT. It was shown previously that a gene, rteC, is necessary for tetracycline-stimulated transcriptional regulation of the xis2c operon, which contains the ...
