Characterization and Transcriptional Regulation of the 2-Ketogluconate Utilization Operon in Pseudomonas plecoglossicida [PDF]
MicroorganismsPseudomonas plecoglossicida JUIM01 is an industrial 2-keto-d-gluconate (2KGA)-producing strain. However, its regulation mechanism of 2KGA metabolism remains to be clarified. Among other reported Pseudomonas species, the 2-ketogluconate utilization operon

AcrDB update: Predicted 3D structures of anti-CRISPRs in human gut viromes. [PDF]
Protein SciAbstract Anti‐CRISPR (Acr) proteins play a key role in phage‐host interactions and hold great promise for advancing genome‐editing technologies. However, finding new Acrs has been challenging due to their low sequence similarity. Recent advances in protein structure prediction have opened new pathways for Acr discovery by using 3D structure similarity.

Reporter Gene-Based qRT-PCR Assay for Rho-Dependent Termination In Vivo
Cells, 2023 In bacteria, the Rho protein mediates Rho-dependent termination (RDT) by identifying a non-specific cytosine-rich Rho utilization site on the newly synthesized RNA. As a result of RDT, downstream RNA transcription is reduced.

Evaluation of Biofilm Formation and Presence of Genes in Clinical Isolates [PDF]
Osong Public Health and Research Perspectives, 2018 Objectives Biofilm formation is one of the important features of Staphylococcus epidermidis, particularly in nosocomial infections. We aimed to investigate the biofilm production by phenotypic methods and the presence of ica genes in S epidermidis ...
