Bacterial gene therapy strategies [PDF]
The Journal of Pathology, 2005 AbstractThe ability of bacteria to mediate gene transfer has only recently been established and these observations have led to the utilization of various bacterial strains in gene therapy. The types of bacteria used include attenuated strains of Salmonella, Shigella, Listeria, and Yersinia, as well as non‐pathogenic Escherichia coli.

Persistence and plasticity in bacterial gene regulation [PDF]
Nature Methods, 2021 Organisms orchestrate cellular functions through transcription factor (TF) interactions with their target genes, although these regulatory relationships are largely unknown in most species. Here we report a high-throughput approach for characterizing TF-target gene interactions across species and its application to 354 TFs across 48 bacteria ...

VBCG: 20 validated bacterial core genes for phylogenomic analysis with high fidelity and resolution
Microbiome, 2023 Background Phylogenomic analysis has become an inseparable part of studies of bacterial diversity and evolution, and many different bacterial core genes have been collated and used for phylogenomic tree reconstruction.

Genes within Genes in Bacterial Genomes
Microbiology Spectrum, 2018 ABSTRACT Genetic coding in bacteria largely operates via the “one gene-one protein” paradigm. However, the peculiarities of the mRNA structure, the versatility of the genetic code, and the dynamic nature of translation sometimes allow organisms to deviate from the standard rules of protein encoding.

Patterns of Bacterial Gene Movement [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2004 Lateral gene transfer has emerged as an important force in bacterial evolution. A substantial number of genes can be inserted into or deleted from genomes through the process of lateral transfer. In this study, we looked for atypical occurrence of genes among related organisms to detect laterally transferred genes.

Canine uterine bacterial infection induces upregulation of proteolysis-related genes and downregulation of homeobox and zinc finger factors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 BACKGROUND: Bacterial infection with the severe complication of sepsis is a frequent and serious condition, being a major cause of death worldwide. To cope with the plethora of occurring bacterial infections there is therefore an urgent need to identify ...

The fate of new bacterial genes [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2009 Bacteria experience a continual influx of novel genetic material from a wide range of sources and yet their genomes remain relatively small. This aspect of bacterial evolution indicates that most newly arriving sequences are rapidly eliminated; however, numerous new genes persist, as evident from the presence of unique genes in almost all bacterial ...

Gene-for-Gene Tolerance to Bacterial Wilt in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions®, 2013 Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is a disease of widespread economic importance that affects numerous plant species, including Arabidopsis thaliana. We describe a pathosystem between A. thaliana and biovar 3 phylotype I strain BCCF402 of R. solanacearum isolated from Eucalyptus trees. A.
