Large-scale and significant expression from pseudogenes in Sodalis glossinidius – a facultative bacterial endosymbiont [PDF]
, 2020 The majority of bacterial genomes have high coding efficiencies, but there are some genomes of intracellular bacteria that have low gene density. The genome of the endosymbiont Sodalis glossinidius contains almost 50 % pseudogenes containing mutations ...

Global Transcriptomic Profiling of Bovine Endometrial Immune Response In Vitro. I. Effect of Lipopolysaccharide on Innate Immunity [PDF]
, 2015 The dysregulation of endometrial immune response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been implicated in uterine disease and infertility in the postpartum dairy cow, although the mechanisms are not clear.

Tuning Gene Activity by Inducible and Targeted Regulation of Gene Expression in Minimal Bacterial Cells [PDF]
ACS Synthetic Biology, 2018 Functional genomics studies in minimal mycoplasma cells enable unobstructed access to some of the most fundamental processes in biology. Conventional transposon bombardment and gene knockout approaches often fail to reveal functions of genes that are essential for viability, where lethality precludes phenotypic characterization.

Multi-target regulation by small RNAs synchronizes gene expression thresholds and may enhance ultrasensitive behavior. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Cells respond to external cues by precisely coordinating multiple molecular events. Co-regulation may be established by the so-called single-input module (SIM), where a common regulator controls multiple targets.

Role of Jasmonic Acid Pathway in Tomato Plant-Pseudomonas syringae Interaction [PDF]
, 2020 The jasmonic acid pathway has been considered as the backbone of the response against necrotrophic pathogens. However, a hemi-biotrophic pathogen, such as Pseudomonas syringae, has taken advantage of the crosstalk between the different plant hormones in ...

CRP-cAMP mediates silencing of Salmonella virulence at the post-transcriptional level [PDF]
, 2018 Invasion of epithelial cells by Salmonella enterica requires expression of genes located in the pathogenicity island I (SPI-1). The expression of SPI-1 genes is very tightly regulated and activated only under specific conditions.
