Bacterioopsin-Mediated Regulation of Bacterioruberin Biosynthesis in Halobacterium salinarum [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2011 ABSTRACT Integral membrane protein complexes consisting of proteins and small molecules that act as cofactors have important functions in all organisms. To form functional complexes, cofactor biosynthesis must be coordinated with the production of corresponding apoproteins. To examine this coordination, we study bacteriorhodopsin

Molecular genetic and physical analysis of gas vesicles in buoyant enterobacteria. [PDF]
, 2016 Different modes of bacterial taxis play important roles in environmental adaptation, survival, colonization and dissemination of disease. One mode of taxis is flotation due to the production of gas vesicles.

Transcription start site associated RNAs (TSSaRNAs) are ubiquitous in all domains of life.
PLoS ONE, 2014 A plethora of non-coding RNAs has been discovered using high-resolution transcriptomics tools, indicating that transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation is much more complex than previously appreciated.
