The Metal Ion-Dependent Adhesion Site Motif of the Enterococcus faecalis EbpA Pilin Mediates Pilus Function in Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infection

mBio, 2012
Though the bacterial opportunist Enterococcus faecalis causes a myriad of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs), including catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs), little is known about the virulence mechanisms that it employs.

The Hare and the Tortoise in Ecological L2 Learning: Distributed Practice Effects in Vocabulary and Grammar

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Research on the distributed practice effect, that is the impact of different intervals between learning sessions, has investigated both intentional and incidental learning of second language vocabulary and grammar targets. This research is complex and has produced conflicting findings: whereas robust effects have been shown for intentional ...

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

The HtrA chaperone monitors sortase-assembled pilus biogenesis in Enterococcus faecalis.

PLoS Genetics
Sortase-assembled pili contribute to virulence in many Gram-positive bacteria. In Enterococcus faecalis, the endocarditis and biofilm-associated pilus (Ebp) is polymerized on the membrane by sortase C (SrtC) and attached to the cell wall by sortase A ...

Pili Formation in Filamentous Cyanobacteria [PDF]

, 2023
Pili are flagella-like appendages that can be found on the surface of bacteria. Type 4 pili (T4P) are a form of pili produced that aid in functions such as cell motility, which cyanobacteria rely on due to their lack of flagella.

Hair Degradation Patterns in Aquatic and Soil Environments

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hair is a biological material that can provide information in archaeology and forensics. Previous studies have mainly examined changes occurring post‐mortem. In this study, we focused on hair pulled out ante‐mortem. The aim of the study was to identify patterns in the degradation of hair in water and soil.

Functional role of the type 1 pilus rod structure in mediating host-pathogen interactions

eLife, 2018
Uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC), which cause urinary tract infections (UTI), utilize type 1 pili, a chaperone usher pathway (CUP) pilus, to cause UTI and colonize the gut.
