A comparison of rpoB and 16S rRNA as markers in pyrosequencing studies of bacterial diversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: The 16S rRNA gene is the gold standard in molecular surveys of bacterial and archaeal diversity, but it has the disadvantages that it is often multiple-copy, has little resolution below the species level and cannot be readily interpreted in ...

Co-relationship between Escherichia coli in broiler cellulitis and liver lesions [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2020
Pathogenic strains of Escherichia coli may invade the subcutaneous tissue of poultry and cause cellulitis, whilst the pathogen may also cause lesions in internal organs such as the liver.

Insights through Genetics of Halophilic Microorganisms and Their Viruses

open access: yes, 2020
Halophilic microorganisms are found in all domains of life and thrive in hypersaline (high salt content) environments. These unusual microbes have been a subject of study for many years due to their interesting properties and physiology.

Genetically Programmable Microbial Assembly

open access: yesACS Synthetic Biology, 2021
Engineered microbial communities show promise in a wide range of applications, including environmental remediation, microbiome engineering, and synthesis of fine chemicals. Here we present methods by which bacterial aggregates can be directed into several distinct architectures by inducible surface expression of heteroassociative protein domains ...

Late cornified envelope 1C (LCE1C), a transcriptional target of TAp63 phosphorylated at T46/T281, interacts with PRMT5

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
p63, a transcriptional factor that belongs to the p53 family, regulates epidermal differentiation, stemness, cell death, tumorigenesis, metastasis, and senescence. However, its molecular mechanism remains elusive. We report here that TAp63 phosphorylated

Role of genomic typing in taxonomy, evolutionary genetics, and microbial epidemiology.

open access: yes, 2001
Currently, genetic typing of microorganisms is widely used in several major fields of microbiological research. Taxonomy, research aimed at elucidation of evolutionary dynamics or phylogenetic relationships, population ...

The structure of idealization in biological theories: the case of the Wright-Fisher model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper we present a new framework of idealization in biology. We characterize idealizations as a network of counterfactual and hypothetical conditionals that can exhibit different “degrees of contingency”.

New approaches to combat Porphyromonas gingivalis biofilms

open access: yesJournal of Oral Microbiology, 2017
In nature, bacteria predominantly reside in structured, surface-attached communities embedded in a self-produced, extracellular matrix. These so-called biofilms play an important role in the development and pathogenesis of many infections, as they are ...
