Vulnerabilities in Yersinia pestis caf operon are unveiled by a Salmonella vector. [PDF]
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.

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 ...

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),

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

Characterization of carABpyrB operon and role of pyrE in Francisella novicida biofilm. [PDF]
Pyrimidine biosynthesis links metabolism to biofilm regulation in Francisella novicida. During nutrient limitation, reduced pyrimidine availability shifts metabolism from uracil salvage to de novo synthesis, increasing biofilm formation. Mutants in carABpyrB exhibit uracil‐dependent growth defects and elevated biofilm:growth ratios, revealing ...
