Corynebacterium tuberculostearicum (C. t.) is a ubiquitous bacterium that colonizes human skin. In contrast to other members of the genus Corynebacterium, such as toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae or the opportunistic pathogen Corynebacterium ...

Quantitative modelling of nutrient-limited growth of bacterial colonies in microfluidic cultivation [PDF]
Nutrient gradients and limitations play a pivotal role in the life of all microbes, both in their natural habitat as well as in artificial, microfluidic systems. Spatial concentration gradients of nutrients in densely packed cell configurations may locally affect the bacterial growth leading to heterogeneous micropopulations.

Chromosome segregation impacts on cell growth and division site selection in Corynebacterium glutamicum. [PDF]
Spatial and temporal regulation of bacterial cell division is imperative for the production of viable offspring. In many rod-shaped bacteria, regulatory systems such as the Min system and nucleoid occlusion ensure the high fidelity of midcell divisome ...

In silico identification of essential proteins in Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis based on protein-protein interaction networks [PDF]
Background Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis (Cp) is a gram-positive bacterium that is classified into equi and ovis serovars. The serovar ovis is the etiological agent of caseous lymphadenitis, a chronic infection affecting sheep and goats, causing ...

CORYNEBACTERIUM: FEATURES OF THE STRUCTURE OF THE BACTERIAL CELL
In a review of the features of the bacterial cells are Corynebacterium structure: characterized by an upper layer, highly organized cell wall, cytoplasmic membrane, cytoplasm, nucleoid. Described in detail the structure of the upper layer containing pili

Efficacy of epiphytic bacteria to prevent northern leaf blight caused by Exserohilum turcicum in maize [PDF]
Eight potential biological control agents (BCAs) were evaluated in planta in order toassess their effectiveness in reducing disease severity of northern leaf blight caused by Exserohilumturcicum. The assay was carried out in greenhouse.

Corynebacterium glutamicum regulation beyond transcription: Organizing principles and reconstruction of an extended regulatory network incorporating regulations mediated by small RNA and protein-protein interactions [PDF]
Corynebacterium glutamicum is a Gram-positive bacterium found in soil where the condition changes demand plasticity of the regulatory machinery. The study of such machinery at the global scale has been challenged by the lack of data integration. Here, we report three regulatory network models for C.

Gut Dysbiosis and Neurobehavioral Alterations in Rats Exposed to Silver Nanoparticles [PDF]
Due to their antimicrobial properties, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are being used in non-edible and edible consumer products. It is not clear though if exposure to these chemicals can exert toxic effects on the host and gut microbiome. Conflicting studies have been reported on whether AgNPs result in gut dysbiosis and other changes within the host. We
