Construction of an inducible amyloid expression circuit in Bacillus megaterium: A case study with CsgA and TasA [PDF]

, 2019
Abstract Environmental applications of synthetic biology such as water remediation require engineered strains to function robustly in a fluctuating and potentially hostile environment. The construction of synthetic biofilm formation circuits could potentially alleviate this issue by promoting cell survival.

Low-temperature induction of Myxococcus xanthus developmental gene expression in wild-type and csgA suppressor cells [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1991
The csgA gene encodes an extracellular protein that plays an essential role in the regulation of fruiting-body formation and sporulation of Myxococcus xanthus. The csgA suppressor allele soc-500 (formerly referred to as csp-500) was selected based on its ability to restore sporulation to csgA cells under developmental conditions at 32 degrees C.

Prevalence and Genomic Characterization of mcr‐Positive Enterobacteriaceae in Retail Meat in Thailand Following the Colistin Ban

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 70, Issue 9, Page 402-415, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of mcr‐positive Enterobacteriaceae in retail meat in Thailand following the national ban on prophylactic colistin use in food producing animals. A total of 152 meat samples (103 chicken and 49 pork) were collected from supermarkets and open markets between July and September ...

Expression and purification of the bacterial protein Curli CsgA and its cross-interactions with amyloid-B [PDF]

, 2022
One of the main causes of neurodegenerative diseases is aggregation of amyloid proteins that are toxic to the neurons. Proteins like amyloid-β (Aβ) and α-syneuclein (α-syn) form hallmark aggregate lesions that contribute to pathological processes in the ...

E. coli Extracellular Matrix: A Tunable Composite With Hierarchical Structure

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 43, 3 August 2026.
The complex composite‐like mechanical behavior of E. coli biofilm matrix is the result of a synergic contribution of the rigid curli and swelling pEtN‐cellulose, and emerges from specific ratio and assembly conditions. The interactions between the two fibers govern biofilm hydration and characteristic wrinkling patterns, providing crucial insights for ...

Deep Mutational Scanning for the Study and Engineering of Protein Assemblies

Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.
This review explores how deep mutational scanning (DMS) can be used to improve understanding and accelerate engineering of protein assemblies, from natural fibers to engineered nanocages. We discuss various types of protein assemblies and their characterization, provide an introduction to the DMS technique, and then highlight examples in which DMS has ...

Effects of Extrusion Conditions and Oil Addition on the Characteristics of Cheese‐Flavored Corn Snacks and Food Bolus Formation and Properties

Journal of Texture Studies, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
The independent variables influenced the oral processing of corn snacks, and temporality had a low importance in characterizing them. The sunflower oil content had little impact on their sensory profile, suggesting that low sunflower oil content may be sensorially acceptable, contributing to improved nutritional value of corn snacks.

LL-37 binds to recombinant polymerized CsgA and isolated wild-type curli.

, 2013
(A) Western blot analysis of supernatants after precipitation of LL-37 with curli. By adding polymeric CsgA (pol CsgA) or wild-type curli (wt curli) to a solution of 0.1 µM LL-37, the levels of LL-37 decreased in the supernatants after centrifugation. (B)
