Divergent Evolution and Local Establishment of Multidrug-Resistant <i>Shigella sonnei</i> in China. [PDF]
• Evolutionary history and local establishment of Chinese Shigella sonnei are unclear. • Chinese S. sonnei developed into four clades and ONPG‐negative variants. • The antimicrobial resistance phenotype of Clade I was due to an IncB/O/K/Z plasmid. • Antimicrobial resistance of Clade II was due to IncFII and IncB/O/K/Z plasmids.

CadC-mediated activation of the cadBA promoter in Escherichia coli [PDF]
The transcriptional activator CadC in Escherichia coli, a member of the ToxR-like proteins, activates transcription of the cadBA operon encoding the lysine decarboxylase CadA and the lysine-cadaverine antiporter CadB. cadBA is induced under conditions of

Physiological regulation of a decontrolled lac operon [PDF]
The expression of the lac operon was studied under a variety of growth conditions in induced and in constitutive cells of Escherichia coli that carried different catabolite-insensitive lac promoters. Use of such "decontrolled" lac operons permitted a study of the expression of an operon that was presumably subject only to passive control. Since the use

Development of a Positive-readout Mouse Model of siRNA Pharmacodynamics
Development of RNAi-based therapeutics has the potential to revolutionize treatment options for a range of human diseases. However, as with gene therapy, a major barrier to progress is the lack of methods to achieve and measure efficient delivery for ...

A modified consumer inkjet for spatiotemporal control of gene expression.
This paper presents a low-cost inkjet dosing system capable of continuous, two-dimensional spatiotemporal regulation of gene expression via delivery of diffusible regulators to a custom-mounted gel culture of E. coli. A consumer-grade, inkjet printer was

Background: The repeating elements in the genes or genomes of living organisms are associated with a variety of functions at the molecular level. Mirror repeats (MRs) are unique type of repeat sequences among them, which are found to be linked with H-DNA

Use of a Role-Playing Activity To Increase Student Understanding of Bacterial Gene Regulation
Undergraduate students often struggle to understand the basics of bacterial gene regulation, a key concept in microbiology. They find it hard to visualize the architecture of a bacterial operon or how the gene, RNA, and protein components interact with ...

From Binary to Multivalued to Continuous Models: The lac Operon as a Case Study
Using the lac operon as a paradigmatic example for a gene regulatory system in prokaryotes, we demonstrate how qualitative knowledge can be initially captured using simple discrete (Boolean) models and then stepwise refined to multivalued logical models ...
