Role of ClpX and MsrA/B in the Oxidative and Cell Wall Stress Response in Bacillus anthracis Sterne
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.Methionine sulfoxide reductase (msrA/B) is an oxidative response enzyme that reduces oxidized methionine residues to maintain protein function. Surprisingly, loss of MsrA/B does not increase sensitivity to hydrogen peroxide or paraquat‐induced oxidative stress in Bacillus anthracis Sterne.

Ecology ofFrancisella tularensis
Annual Review of Entomology, 2020 Tularemia is a Holarctic zoonosis caused by the gamma proteobacterium Francisella tularensis and is considered to be a vector-borne disease. In many regions, human risk is associated with the bites of flies, mosquitoes, or ticks. But the biology of the agent is such that risk may be fomite related, and large outbreaks can occur due to inhalation or ...

Applied Biosafety, 2017 Francisella tularensis, the causative agent of tularemia, is a HHS Tier 1 select agent. Tularemia is the most commonly reported human and animal infection caused by a bacterial select agent in the United States. Because of the rarity of disease, low clinical suspicion, and the organism's low infectious dose, F.

Risk Ranking of Microbiological Hazards in Food (2015–2019)
Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 3, July 2026.Abstract Microbiological food safety risks arise from pathogens that can contaminate food at different points along the food chain. Exposure to these hazards can result in illnesses that can vary widely in severity and duration, depending on factors such as the specific pathogen involved, the amount of the pathogen ingested, and the susceptibility of ...

Acid Resistance in Francisella tularensis [PDF]
MicrobiologyOpen, 2014 AbstractFrancisella tularensis, the etiologic agent of tularemia, can survive under acidic conditions. Tularemia can be acquired by several routes, including by ingestion of contaminated food or water. While acid resistance is usually associated with a low oral infective dose (ID), the ID for gastrointestinal illness is quite high.

Sequencing and functional analysis of a Francisella tularensis pathogenicity island
, 2008 Francisella tularensis, a Gram-negative coccobacillus, is an extremely virulent intracellular pathogen. Infection of humans with this pathogen results in tularemia, a life-threatening disease. An approximately 35 kb region found in the F.

Landscape wetness and beaver wetlands enhance environmental prevalence of Francisella spp.
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Identifying the contributions of biotic and abiotic factors in pathogen transmission is essential to mitigate vector‐borne and zoonotic disease risk. Francisella tularensis is the etiological agent of the infectious disease tularemia in wildlife and humans. Environmental factors driving transmission in wildlife, including the role of hares and
