Mechanism of Gene Regulation by a
mBio, 2016 The virulence of many bacterial pathogens, including the important human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus, depends on the secretion of frequently large amounts of toxins. Toxin production involves the need for the bacteria to make physiological adjustments

Use of Bacterial Quorum-Sensing Components to Regulate Gene Expression in Plants [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2006 Abstract We describe an efficient inducible system to regulate gene expression in plants based on quorum-sensing components found in Gram-negative bacteria such as Agrobacterium tumefaciens. These bacteria monitor their own population density by utilizing members of the N-acyl homoserine lactone family as inducers and a transcriptional ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Genomics analysis on the responses of E. coli cells to varying environmental conditions [PDF]
, 2016 The natural living environments of E. coli cells are diverse, varying from mammalian gastrointestinal tracts and soil. Each environment might require distinct metabolic pathways and transporter systems, and long-term evolution has established elaborate ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Expression regulation of bacterial lipase genes: a review
Frontiers in MicrobiologyMicrobial lipases constitute the primary source of commercialized and industrial lipases, and they are extensively utilized across numerous industrial sectors. Compared to fungal lipases, bacterial lipases catalyze a broader spectrum of reactions with higher activity, enhanced stability, and improved stress resistance.
