A novel transcriptional regulator, CdeR, modulates the type III secretion system via c-di-GMP signaling in Dickeya dadantii [PDF]
Dickeya dadantii is a bacterial pathogen that causes soft rot disease in many plant species worldwide, including temperate, subtropical, and tropical regions. This bacterium employs the type III secretion system (T3SS) to manipulate host immune responses.

Status quo of tet regulation in bacteria
Summary The tetracycline repressor (TetR) belongs to the most popular, versatile and efficient transcriptional regulators used in bacterial genetics. In the tetracycline (Tc) resistance determinant tet(B) of transposon Tn10, tetR regulates the expression

Biological insights from RIL-seq in bacteria [PDF]
Bacteria reside in constantly changing environments and require rapid and precise adjustments of gene expression to ensure survival. Small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) are a crucial element that bacteria utilize to achieve this. sRNAs are short RNA molecules that modulate gene expression usually through base-pairing interactions with target RNAs, primarily ...

Algorithm for the Reconstruction of Mathematical Frame Models of Bacterial Transcription Regulation
Transcription regulation plays an important role in bacterial activity. The operon concept coined by François Jacob and Jacques Monod has had a considerable effect on investigations into gene expression regulation, including modeling.

Epigenetic silencing of host cell defense genes enhances intracellular survival of the rickettsial pathogen Anaplasma phagocytophilum. [PDF]
Intracellular bacteria have evolved mechanisms that promote survival within hostile host environments, often resulting in functional dysregulation and disease.

The BvgAS Regulon of
Nearly all virulence factors in Bordetella pertussis are activated by a master two-component system, BvgAS, composed of the sensor kinase BvgS and the response regulator BvgA.

Dynamics of immune system gene expression upon bacterial challenge and wounding in a social insect (Bombus terrestris). [PDF]
The innate immune system which helps individuals to combat pathogens comprises a set of genes representing four immune system pathways (Toll, Imd, JNK and JAK/STAT). There is a lack of immune genes in social insects (e.g.
