Biofilm therapy for chronic wounds
Abstract Chronic wounds have been a major factor of serious harm to global public health. At present, it is known that almost all chronic wounds contain biofilms, which seriously hinder the healing process. Removal of biofilms can effectively promote the healing of chronic wounds.

Transcriptional activation of the glycolytic las operon and catabolite repression of the gal operon in Lactococcus lactis are mediated by the catabolite control protein CcpA [PDF]
The Lactococcus lactis ccpA gene, encoding the global regulatory protein CcpA, was identified and characterized. Northern blot and primer extension analyses showed that the L.

Recent insights into the world of dual‐function bacterial sRNAs
Dual‐function sRNAs are fascinating riboregulators that act both as base‐pairing antisense RNAs and as peptide‐coding mRNAs, offering the possibility to control target function at different regulatory levels via RNA–RNA interactions as well as protein–protein interactions.

Identification of catabolite control protein A from Staphylococcus aureus as a target of silver ions [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common pathogenic bacteria that causes human infectious diseases. The emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains of S. aureus promotes the development of new anti-bacterial strategies.

Global transcriptome response in
Background Lactobacillus sakei is valuable in the fermentation of meat products and exhibits properties that allow for better preservation of meat and fish. On these substrates, glucose and ribose are the main carbon sources available for growth. We used

The functional ccpA gene is required for carbon catabolite repression in Lactobacillus plantarum
We report the characterization of the ccpA gene of Lactobacillus plantarum, coding for catabolite control protein A. The gene is linked to the pepQ gene, encoding a proline peptidase, in the order ccpA-pepQ, with the two genes transcribed in tandem from ...

Background Genomes of gram-positive bacteria encode many putative cell-surface proteins, of which the majority has no known function. From the rapidly increasing number of available genome sequences it has become apparent that many cell-surface proteins ...

CcpA-Dependent Carbon Catabolite Repression in Bacteria [PDF]
Carbon catabolite repression (CCR) by transcriptional regulators follows different mechanisms in gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. In gram-positive bacteria, CcpA-dependent CCR is mediated by phosphorylation of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar ...
