Structural Insights into Curli CsgA Cross-β Fibril Architecture Inspire Repurposing of Anti-amyloid Compounds as Anti-biofilm Agents.

PLoS Pathogens, 2019
Curli amyloid fibrils secreted by Enterobacteriaceae mediate host cell adhesion and contribute to biofilm formation, thereby promoting bacterial resistance to environmental stressors.

Biological Synthesis of Reusable Silver Nanoparticle‐Protein Antimicrobial Films

Advanced Materials Interfaces
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are used in electronics, medical and environmental applications. However, the toxicity of AgNPs in humans and the environment is a cause of concern. To address this, AgNPs are incorporated into nanocomposites to control their

BEET CURLY TOP (Beet Curly Top Virus) DISEASE

ANADOLU JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES, 2013
he agent of beet curly top disease is Beet curly top virus (BCTV). BCTV, involved in the genus of Curtovirus, has a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) genome with twine particles. It is persistently transmitted by Circulifer tenellius (Baker) and C. haematoceps (Mulsant and Rey) which belong to the family Cicadellidae and the order Homoptera.

Curli Production and ERIC-PCR Fingerprinting of Escherichia coli from Clinical Cases of Bovine Mastitis [PDF]

, 2005
Mastitis caused by Escherichia coli is among the most common and severe forms of environmental mastitis. Currently, the severity of E. coli mastitis is thought to be more related to cow factors than bacterial virulence. Some strains of E. coli, however,

Fluoropyrimidines affect de novo pyrimidine synthesis impairing biofilm formation in Escherichia coli

Biofilm
Antivirulence agents are considered a promising strategy to treat bacterial infections. Fluoropyrimidines possess antivirulence and antibiofilm activity against Gram-negative bacteria; however, their mechanism of action is yet unknown.

Absence of genetic selection in a pathogenic Escherichia coli strain exposed to the manure-amended soil environment.

PLoS ONE, 2018
Escherichia coli that express curli are more common in subsurface soil drainage when manure is surface applied. However, it is unknown whether this arises from mutations in individual strains leading to curli expression or by selection for individuals ...
