An N4-like Caulobacter phage requires host smooth lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis for infection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology
Caulobacter species are Alphaproteobacteria that commonly inhabit plant-associated and aquatic microbial communities. Although Caulobacter is widespread and has long served as a model for the study of bacterial cell biology, our understanding of viruses ...

A comparison of theCaulobacterNA1000 and K31 genomes reveals extensive genome rearrangements and differences in metabolic potential [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2014
The genus Caulobacter is found in a variety of habitats and is known for its ability to thrive in low-nutrient conditions. K31 is a novel Caulobacter isolate that has the ability to tolerate copper and chlorophenols, and can grow at 4°C with a doubling ...

The hiuABC operon mediates xenosiderophore utilization in Caulobacter crescentus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology
Caulobacter species are common residents of soil and aquatic ecosystems, where bioavailable iron is often extremely limited. Like other diderm bacteria, Caulobacter crescentus can acquire Fe(III) via outer-membrane TonB-dependent transporters (TBDTs ...

Both clinical and environmental Caulobacter species are virulent in the Galleria mellonella infection model

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The Caulobacter genus, including the widely-studied model organism Caulobacter crescentus, has been thought to be non-pathogenic and thus proposed as a bioengineering vector for various environmental remediation and medical purposes. However, Caulobacter

Caulobacter Species as a Cause of Postneurosurgical Bacterial Meningitis in a Pediatric Patient

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2012
Caulobacter species have been rarely found to be a cause of human infection. A case of probable Caulobacter species meningitis occurring postneurosurgery in a pediatric patient is reported in the present article.

Caulobacter Strains Code for Novel Restriction Endonucleases That Protect Them from Bacteriophage Infections [PDF]

open access: yesViruses
Bacteriophages grown on Caulobacter vibrioides strain CB15 have reduced plating efficiency on other Caulobacter strains. To determine the cause of this reduced plating efficiency, we performed a series of experiments that demonstrated that the reduced ...

Disrupting NtrC function reveals unexpected robustness in a central cell cycle regulatory network [PDF]

open access: yesmBio
Cell cycle progression relies on coordinated signaling systems that integrate diverse cellular and environmental cues. In Caulobacter and related Alphaproteobacteria, the essential sensor histidine kinase CckA initiates a phosphorelay signaling cascade ...

SMC Progressively Aligns Chromosomal Arms in Caulobacter crescentus but Is Antagonized by Convergent Transcription

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
The structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) complex plays an important role in chromosome organization and segregation in most living organisms. In Caulobacter crescentus, SMC is required to align the left and the right arms of the chromosome that ...

Screen for localized proteins in Caulobacter crescentus.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Precise localization of individual proteins is required for processes such as motility, chemotaxis, cell-cycle progression, and cell division in bacteria, but the number of proteins that are localized in bacterial species is not known.

The Protein Quality Control Network in Caulobacter crescentus

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
The asymmetric life cycle of Caulobacter crescentus has provided a model in which to study how protein quality control (PQC) networks interface with cell cycle and developmental processes, and how the functions of these systems change during exposure to ...
