Pathways of genetic adaptation: multistep origin of mutants under selection without induced mutagenesis in Salmonella enterica. [PDF]
In several bacterial systems, mutant cell populations plated on growth-restricting medium give rise to revertant colonies that accumulate over several days.

An orthologue of bacteroides fragilis NanH is the principal sialidase in tannerella forsythia [PDF]
Sialidase activity is a putative virulence factor of the anaerobic periodontal pathogen Tannerella forsythia, but it is uncertain which genes encode this activity.

We summarize the taxonomic characteristics, capabilities to adhere to and invade host cells, extra‐oral ectopic colonization pathways, and major pathogenic mechanisms of Fusobacterium nucleatum, and explore the regulation of F. nucleatum’s pathogenesis, aiming to provide references and assistance for the development of clinical interventions and future

Oligosaccharides in Milk: Their Benefits and Future Utilization [PDF]
The percentage of carbohydrate in the milk/colostrum of the mammalian is range from trace to over 10%, of which disaccharide lactose (Gal(β1-4)Glc) is usually constitutes the major part.

Protein-Mediated DNA Loops: Effects of Protein Bridge Size and Kinks
This paper focuses on the probability that a portion of DNA closes on itself through thermal fluctuations. We investigate the dependence of this probability upon the size r of a protein bridge and/or the presence of a kink at half DNA length.

cDNA-RNA subtractive hybridization reveals increased expression of mycocerosic acid synthase in intracellular Mycobacterium bovis BCG. [PDF]
Identifying genes that are differentially expressed by Mycobacterium bovis BCG after phagocytosis by macrophages will facilitate the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of host cell-intracellular pathogen interactions. To identify such genes a cDNA-

ABSTRACT Genetic features of host adaptation of S. aureus to ruminants have been extensively studied, but the extent to which this adaptation occurs in nature remains unknown. In New Zealand, clonal complex 1 (CC1) is among the most common lineages in humans and the dominant lineage in cattle, enabling between‐, and within‐CC genomic comparisons of ...

Controlled functional expression of the bacteriocins pediocin PA-1 and bactofencin A in Escherichia coli [PDF]
peer-reviewedThe bacteriocins bactofencin A (class IId) and pediocin PA-1 (class IIa) are encoded by operons with a similarly clustered gene organization including a structural peptide, an immunity protein, an ABC transporter and accessory bacteriocin ...

The Roc system represents a highly interconnected but incomplete network of two‐component regulatory systems involved in the virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Our work has enabled us to identify the missing RocA3 regulator, to propose new players in the system and to delineate their conservation between clades of the species.

This study reveals the regulatory mechanism behind sugar metabolism and dextran synthesis by Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides DSM20193 during the fermentation of a complex substrate like brewers spent grain. Understanding metabolic pathways and genetic adaptation of lactic acid bacteria in food environments can help develop fermented products with ...
