Identification and characterization of a gene conferring stress resistance in Escherichia coli and cyanobacteria

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Functional screening identified PcSyn14890, a cyanobacteria‐specific protein that enhances growth and stress resistance in E. coli and Synechocystis PCC6803. Although we expected it to function as a molecular chaperone, it was unable to protect against thermal aggregation of GAPDH.

N-acetylgalatosamine-mediated regulation of the aga operon by AgaR in Streptococcus pneumoniae

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2016
Here, we analyze the transcriptomic response of Streptococcus pneumoniae D39 to N-acetylgalactosamine (NAGa). Transcriptome comparison of S. pneumoniae D39 grown NAGaM17 (0.5% NAGa + M17) to that grown in GM17 (0.5% Glucose + M17) revealed the elevated ...

Mutations in SilS and CusS/OmpC represent different routes to achieve high level silver ion tolerance in Klebsiella pneumoniae

BMC Microbiology, 2022
Background Silver ions have potent broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and are widely incorporated into a variety of products to limit bacterial growth.

Modeling operon dynamics: the tryptophan and lactose operons as paradigms

Comptes Rendus. Biologies, 2004
Understanding the regulation of gene control networks and their ensuing dynamics will be a critical component in the understanding of the mountain of genomic data being currently collected. This paper reviews recent mathematical modeling work on the tryptophan and lactose operons which are, respectively, the classical paradigms for repressible and ...

High‐Resolution Corrosion Fingerprinting of Alloy Libraries via Microdroplet Spectroelectrochemistry

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Ionic‐liquid microdroplet spectroelectrochemistry enables stable, localized electrochemical measurements over extended timescales. By coupling impedance spectroscopy, wetting analysis, finite‐element simulations, and operando Raman spectroscopy, it disentangles geometrical and electrochemical effects, opening new opportunities for rapid corrosion ...

Complete Pathway Refactoring and Combinatorial Biosynthesis of Anthracyclines for Modulation of Histone Eviction and DNA Damage Bioactivities

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A synthetic biology platform was established for the complete refactoring of complex anthracycline biosynthetic pathways in Streptomyces coelicolor using standardized, chemically synthetic DNA parts. This modular construction enabled streamlined combinatorial biosynthesis, yielding novel analogs that decouple DNA damage from chromatin damage (histone ...

Regulation of potassium dependent ATPase (kdp) operon of Deinococcus radiodurans. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The genome of D. radiodurans harbors genes for structural and regulatory proteins of Kdp ATPase, in an operon pattern, on Mega plasmid 1. Organization of its two-component regulatory genes is unique.

Tracing the ancestry of operons in bacteria [PDF]

Bioinformatics, 2017
Abstract Motivation Complexity is a fundamental attribute of life. Complex systems are made of parts that together perform functions that a single component, or subsets of components, cannot. Examples of complex molecular systems include protein structures such as the F1Fo-ATPase, the ribosome,

Transcription Factor Promiscuity Drives Regulatory Rewiring and Evolvability in Gene Networks in Bacteria

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
When a master transcription factor (TF) is lost, bacteria can rapidly rewire gene regulatory networks by co‐opting related regulators. Using experimental evolution in Pseudomonas fluorescens, we show that TF promiscuity (low‐level, non‐cognate binding) provides the raw material for rewiring. Successful co‐option follows a predictable hierarchy governed

Structure and Biosynthesis of Mangotoxin Produced by the Plant Pathogen Pseudomonas syringae

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The structure of mangotoxin remained elusive for over two decades. Here, mangotoxin was isolated from the native producer, Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae, and was determined to be an alkyne‐containing dipeptide. Mangotoxin inhibited the growth of multidrug‐resistant human pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae.
