CpxAR of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae Contributes to Heat Stress Response by Repressing Expression of Type IV Pilus Gene apfA [PDF]
Acute pleuropneumonia in swine, caused by Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, is characterized by a high and sustained fever. Fever creates an adverse environment for many bacteria, leading to reduced bacterial proliferation; however, most pathogenic ...

Reassessing the role of the Escherichia coli CpxAR system in sensing surface contact. [PDF]
For proper biofilm formation, bacteria must have mechanisms in place to sense adhesion to surfaces. In Escherichia coli, the CpxAR and RcsCDB systems have been reported to sense surfaces.

The inner membrane protein YhiM links copper and CpxAR envelope stress responses in uropathogenic E. coli [PDF]
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a ubiquitous infectious condition, and uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the predominant causative agent of UTI. Copper (Cu) is implicated in innate immunity, including against UPEC.

The CpxAR Two-Component System Contributes to Growth, Stress Resistance, and Virulence of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae by Upregulating wecA Transcription [PDF]
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is the pathogen of porcine contagious pleuropneumonia. In A. pleuropneumoniae, the CpxAR two-component system is essential for fitness and growth. The O-antigen protrudes from the outer membrane to the exterior of the cell,

The two-component system CpxAR controls biofilm formation by directly regulating the T3SS needle tip protein EseB in Edwardsiella piscicida [PDF]
The type III secretion system (T3SS) translocon protein EseB (needle tip protein) forms filamentous appendages on the surface of Edwardsiella piscicida to facilitate autoaggregation and biofilm formation. By contrast, another T3SS translocon protein EseC

Background: CpxAR is a two-component system that allows bacteria to reorganize envelope structures in response to extracellular stimuli. CpxAR negatively affects type 1 fimbriae expression in Klebsiella pneumoniae CG43, a hypervirulent strain.

Characterization of the Role of Two-Component Systems in Antibiotic Resistance Formation in Salmonella enterica Serovar Enteritidis [PDF]
The two-component system (TCS) is one of the primary pathways by which bacteria adapt to environmental stresses such as antibiotics. This study aimed to systematically explore the role of TCSs in the development of multidrug resistance (MDR) in ...
