Population gene introgression and high genome plasticity for the zoonotic pathogen Streptococcus agalactiae [PDF]

, 2019
The influence that bacterial adaptation (or niche partitioning) within species has on gene spillover and transmission among bacteria populations occupying different niches is not well understood.

Genetic organization of plasmid R1162 DNA involved in conjugative mobilization [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1986
DNA involved in the mobilization of broad-host-range plasmid R1162 was localized to a region of 2.7 kilobases within coordinates 3.4 to 6.1 kilobases on the R1162 map. By examining the transfer properties of plasmids containing cloned fragments of DNA from within this region, we showed that at least four trans-active products and a cis-active site ...

Improvement of the conjugation transfer of N. gerenzanensis based on the synergistic effect of quorum sensing and antibiotic interference

AMB Express, 2023
Nonomuraea gerenzanensis (N. gerenzanensis) is known for its ability to biosynthesize A40926, the precursor of the glycopeptide antibiotic (GPA) Dalbavancin.

Monitoring Bacterial Conjugation by Optical Microscopy

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Bacterial conjugation is the main mechanism for horizontal gene transfer, conferring plasticity to the genome repertoire. This process is also the major instrument for the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes. Hence, gathering primary information

Inhibition of hepatitis C virus RNA replication by ISG15 does not require its conjugation to protein substrates by the HERC5 E3 ligase [PDF]

, 2015
Chronic infection of the liver by hepatitis C virus (HCV) induces a range of host factors including IFN-stimulated genes such as ISG15. ISG15 functions as an antiviral factor that limits virus replication. Previous studies have suggested that ISG15 could

Ubiquitylation in immune disorders and cancer: from molecular mechanisms to therapeutic implications [PDF]

, 2012
Conjugation of ubiquitin to proteins (ubiquitylation) has emerged to be one of the most crucial post-translational modifications controlling virtually all cellular processes.

Site-specific chemical protein conjugation using genetically encoded aldehyde tags [PDF]

Nature Protocols, 2012
We describe a method for modifying proteins site-specifically using a chemoenzymatic bioconjugation approach. Formylglycine generating enzyme (FGE) recognizes a pentapeptide consensus sequence, CxPxR, and it specifically oxidizes the cysteine in this sequence to an unusual aldehyde-bearing formylglyine.

Transposon insertion sequencing reveals T4SS as the major genetic trait for conjugation transfer of multi-drug resistance pEIB202 from Edwardsiella

BMC Microbiology, 2017
Background Conjugation is a major type of horizontal transmission of genes that involves transfer of a plasmid into a recipient using specific conjugation machinery, which results in an extended spectrum of bacterial antibiotics resistance.

Models for Gut-Mediated Horizontal Gene Transfer by Bacterial Plasmid Conjugation

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The emergence of new antimicrobial resistant and virulent bacterial strains may pose a threat to human and animal health. Bacterial plasmid conjugation is a significant contributor to rapid microbial evolutions that results in the emergence and spread of
