A Microorganism Transcriptional Regulation Algorithm Based on Generalized Regression Neural Network [PDF]
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),

Magnetosome Gene Duplication as an Important Driver in the Evolution of Magnetotaxis in the Alphaproteobacteria [PDF]
The evolution of microbial magnetoreception (or magnetotaxis) is of great interest in the fields of microbiology, evolutionary biology, biophysics, geomicrobiology, and geochemistry.

Bacterial nitrate assimilation: gene distribution and regulation [PDF]
In the context of the global nitrogen cycle, the importance of inorganic nitrate for the nutrition and growth of marine and freshwater autotrophic phytoplankton has long been recognized.

The long polar fimbriae (lpf) operon and its flanking regions in bovine Escherichia coli O157:H43 and STEC O136:H12 strains [PDF]
Long polar fimbriae (Lpf) are intestinal adhesins and important virulence factors of pathogenic Escherichia coli strains. We cloned and sequenced the lpf2-1 operon (lpf2ABCD) and its flanking regions of an intimin- and Shiga toxin-negative E.

The role of the Staphylococcal VraTSR regulatory system on vancomycin resistance and vanA operon expression in vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. [PDF]
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

Inter-protein sequence co-evolution predicts known physical interactions in bacterial ribosomes and the trp operon [PDF]
Interaction between proteins is a fundamental mechanism that underlies virtually all biological processes. Many important interactions are conserved across a large variety of species.

Gene Gangs of the Chloroviruses: Conserved Clusters of Collinear Monocistronic Genes
Chloroviruses (family Phycodnaviridae) are dsDNA viruses found throughout the world’s inland waters. The open reading frames in the genomes of 41 sequenced chloroviruses (330 ± 40 kbp each) representing three virus types were analyzed for evidence of ...

Molecular Distributions in Gene Regulatory Dynamics [PDF]
We show how one may analytically compute the stationary density of the distribution of molecular constituents in populations of cells in the presence of noise arising from either bursting transcription or translation, or noise in degradation rates ...

Copper Chaperone CupA and Zinc Control CopY Regulation of the Pneumococcal
Any metal in excess can be toxic; therefore, metal homeostasis is critical to bacterial survival. Bacteria have developed specialized metal import and export systems for this purpose.
