A connection between bacterial chemotactic network and optimal filtering [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 128102 (2021), 2020 The chemotactic network of Escherichia coli has been studied extensively both biophysically and information-theoretically. Nevertheless, the connection between these two aspects is still elusive. In this work, we report such a connection by showing that a standard biochemical model of the chemotactic network is mathematically equivalent to an ...

Escherichia coli Pathobionts Associated with Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2019 Gut bacteria play a key role in initiating and maintaining the inflammatory process in the gut tissues of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, by supplying antigens or other stimulatory factors that trigger immune cell activation.

Transient drift of Escherichia coli under diffusing Step nutrient profile [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 98, 052413 (2018), 2018 Bacteria such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) exhibit biased motion if kept in a spatially non-uniform chemical environment. Here, we bring out unique time-dependent characteristics of bacterial chemotaxis, in response to a diffusing spatial step ligand profile.

New tools for recombinant protein production in Escherichia coli: A 5‐year update
Protein Science, 2019 The production of proteins in sufficient amounts is key for their study or use as biotherapeutic agents. Escherichia coli is the host of choice for recombinant protein production given its fast growth, easy manipulation, and cost‐effectiveness.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.LHCPs are transported to the thylakoid membrane via the (cp)SRP pathway. This process involves a transit complex of (cp)SRP43, (cp)SRP54 and LHCP, which interacts with (cp)FtsY and Alb3 at the membrane. GTP hydrolysis by (cp)SRP54 and (cp)FtsY triggers complex dissociation.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection MicrobiologyThis study investigates the plasmid sequences of porcine O139:H1 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) responsible for Edema Disease (ED). Whole-genome analysis reveals significant similarities between these strains and known plasmids, notably ...

The Intriguing Evolutionary Journey of Enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC) toward Pathogenicity
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Among the intestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli, enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC) are a group of intracellular pathogens able to enter epithelial cells of colon, multiplicate within them, and move between adjacent cells with a mechanism similar to Shigella,

What is the 'minimum inhibitory concentration' (MIC) of pexiganan acting on Escherichia coli? - A cautionary case study [PDF]
Biophysics of Infection. Volume 915 of the series Advances in
Experimental Medicine and Biology. Springer pp 33-48 (2016), 2016 We measured the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the antimicrobial peptide pexiganan acting on Escherichia coli, and report an intrinsic variability in such measurements. These results led to a detailed study of the effect of pexiganan on the growth curve of E. coli, using a plate reader and manual plating (i.e. time-kill curves). The measured

Structure and genetics of Escherichia coli O antigens
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2019 Escherichia coli includes clonal groups of both commensal and pathogenic strains, with some of the latter causing serious infectious diseases. O antigen variation is current standard in defining strains for taxonomy and epidemiology, providing the basis ...
