Vulnerabilities in Yersinia pestis caf operon are unveiled by a Salmonella vector. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 During infection, Yersinia pestis uses its F1 capsule to enhance survival and cause virulence to mammalian host. Since F1 is produced in large quantities and secreted into the host tissues, it also serves as a major immune target.

A Microorganism Transcriptional Regulation Algorithm Based on Generalized Regression Neural Network [PDF]
International Journal Bioautomation, 2019 Considering the importance of operon in microorganism transcriptional regulation, this paper sets up a new operon prediction model based on artificial neural network (ANN). Specifically, multiple genome information, ranging from intergenic distance (IGD),

Briefings in Functional Genomics and Proteomics, 2004 It was thought that polycistronic transcription is a characteristic of bacteria and archaea, where many of the genes are clustered in operons composed of two to more than ten genes. By contrast, the genes of eukaryotes are generally considered to be monocistronic, each with its own promoter at the 5' end and a transcription terminator at the 3' end ...

Transcriptome Landscape of Mycobacterium smegmatis
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 The non-pathogenic bacterium Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2155 has been widely used as a model organism in mycobacterial research, yet a detailed study about its transcription landscape remains to be established. Here we report the transcriptome, expression

Network Topology as a Driver of Bistability in the lac Operon [PDF]
J Comput Biol. 2011 Jun;18(6):783-94, 2008 The lac operon in Escherichia coli has been studied extensively and is one of the earliest gene systems found to undergo both positive and negative control. The lac operon is known to exhibit bistability, in the sense that the operon is either induced or uninduced. Many dynamical models have been proposed to capture this phenomenon.

Coding Synthetic Chemistry Strategies for Furan Valorization into Bacterial Designer Cells**
ChemSusChem, Volume 16, Issue 2, January 20, 2023., 2023 Designer cells: A microbial factory is designed to directly convert furfuryl alcohols to synthetically valuable and enantioenriched delta‐lactones. Pairing Achmatowicz ring expansions and borrowing hydrogen redoxisomerizations, two otherwise non‐natural transformations, this study highlights the potential of introducing novel biocatalytic tools into ...

The role of the Staphylococcal VraTSR regulatory system on vancomycin resistance and vanA operon expression in vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Vancomycin is often the preferred treatment for invasive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection. With the increase in incidence of MRSA infections, the use of vancomycin has increased and, as feared, isolates of vancomycin-resistant
