The antibiotic resistances emerged in uropathogens lead to accumulative treatment failure and recurrent episodes of urinary tract infection (UTI), necessitating more innovative therapeutics to curb UTI before systematic infection.

Global gene-expression analysis of the response of Salmonella Enteritidis to egg-white exposure reveals multiple egg-white-imposed stress responses [PDF]
Chicken egg white protects the embryo from bacterial invaders by presenting an assortment of antagonistic activities that combine together to both kill and inhibit growth. The key features of the egg-white anti-bacterial system are iron restriction, high

ZraP is a periplasmic molecular chaperone and a repressor of the zinc-responsive two-component regulator ZraSR [PDF]
The bacterial envelope is the interface with the surrounding environment and is consequently subjected to a barrage of noxious agents including a range of compounds with antimicrobial activity.

Functional characterization of a novel outer membrane porin KpnO, regulated by PhoBR two-component system in Klebsiella pneumoniae NTUH-K2044. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The diffusion of antibiotics through the outer membrane is primarily affected by the porin super family, changes contribute to antibiotic resistance. Recently we demonstrated that the CpxAR two-component signaling system alters the expression

The Expression Levels of Outer Membrane Proteins STM1530 and OmpD, Which Are Influenced by the CpxAR and BaeSR Two-Component Systems, Play Important Roles in the Ceftriaxone Resistance of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium [PDF]
ABSTRACT Significant increases in STM3031, STM1530, and AcrD protein levels and significant decreases in OmpC and OmpD protein levels are present when the ceftriaxone-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium R200 strain is compared with the ceftriaxone-susceptible strain 01-4.

EfeUOB (YcdNOB) is a tripartite, acid‐induced and CpxAR‐regulated, low‐pH Fe2+ transporter that is cryptic in Escherichia coli K‐12 but functional in E. coli O157:H7 [PDF]
Summary Escherichia coli possesses iron transporters specific for either Fe2+ or Fe3+. Although Fe2+ is far more soluble than Fe3+, it rapidly oxidizes aerobically at pH ≥ 7. Thus, FeoAB, the major Fe2+ transporter of E. coli, operates anaerobically. However, Fe2+ remains stable aerobically under acidic conditions, although a low‐pH Fe2+ importer has ...

A novel class of heat and secretion stress-responsive genes is controlled by the autoregulated CssRS two-component system of Bacillus subtilis [PDF]
Bacteria need dedicated systems that allow appropriate adaptation to the perpetual changes in their environments. In Bacillus subtilis, two HtrA-like proteases, HtrA and HtrB, play critical roles in the cellular response to secretion and heat stresses ...

Maintaining Integrity Under Stress:Envelope Stress Response Regulation of Pathogenesis in Gram-Negative Bacteria [PDF]
The Gram-negative bacterial envelope is an essential interface between the intracellular and harsh extracellular environment. Envelope stress responses (ESRs) are crucial to the maintenance of this barrier and function to detect and respond to ...
