In situ electrochemical investigation of the interaction between bacteria Xylella fastidiosa DNA and copper(II) using DNA-electrochemical biosensors

Electrochemistry Communications, 2021
New emerging bacterial plant diseases are spreading fast in different geographical regions, and effective safety measures have not been found. Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) is a Gram-negative bacterial plant pathogen classified as a priority quarantine pest ...

Prokaryotic ParA–ParB–parS system links bacterial chromosome segregation with the cell cycle [PDF]

, 2012
While the essential role of episomal par loci in plasmid DNA partitioning has long been appreciated, the function of chromosomally encoded par loci is less clear. The chromosomal parA–parB genes are conserved throughout the bacterial kingdom and encode

Comparison of Bacterial DNA Profiles in Mid-Trimester Amniotic Fluid Samples From Preterm and Term Deliveries

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Infection and inflammation are well recognized causes of spontaneous preterm delivery (PTD) (<37 gestational weeks) and adverse infant outcomes. To date, there has been very little investigation into bacterial communities in amniotic fluid using next ...

DNA vaccines for bacterial infections

Immunology & Cell Biology, 1997
DNA vaccines are an exciting development in vaccine technology which may have a special role in preventing viral infections and as ‘theracines’ for cancer. Their use in preventing bacterial infections has, by comparison, been less well documented.

Hot-spot consensus of fluoroquinolone-mediated DNA cleavage by gram-negative and gram-positive type II DNA topoisomerases [PDF]

, 2007
Bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV are selective targets of fluoroquinolones. Topoisomerase IV versus gyrase and Gram-positive versus Gram-negative behavior was studied based on the different recognition of DNA sequences by topoisomerase ...

Colony-stimulating factor-1 suppresses responses to CpG DNA and expression of toll-like receptor 9 but enhances responses to lipopolysaccharide in murine macrophages

, 2002
During bacterial infections, the balance between resolution of infection and development of sepsis is dependent upon the macrophage response to bacterial products.

Effects of preservation method on canine (Canis lupus familiaris) fecal microbiota [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
Studies involving gut microbiome analysis play an increasing role in the evaluation of health and disease in humans and animals alike. Fecal sampling methods for DNA preservation in laboratory, clinical, and field settings can greatly influence ...

Indirect DNA extraction method suitable for acidic soil with high clay content

MethodsX, 2018
DNA extraction is an essential procedure when investigating microbial communities in environmental samples by sequencing technologies. High clay soils can be problematic as DNA adsorbs to the clay particles and can thereby be preserved from lysed, non ...
