Pneumococcal Phasevarions Control Multiple Virulence Traits, Including Vaccine Candidate Expression
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most common cause of bacterial illness worldwide. Current vaccines based on the polysaccharide capsule are only effective against a limited number of the >100 capsular serotypes.

A collective mechanism for phase variation in biofilms [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008 Understanding how microbes gather into biofilm communities and maintain diversity remains one of the central questions of microbiology, requiring an understanding of microbes as communal rather then individual organisms. Phase variation plays an integral role in the formation of diverse phenotypes within biofilms.

Phasevarions in Haemophilus influenzae biogroup aegyptius control expression of multiple proteins
Microbiology SpectrumHaemophilus influenzae biogroup aegyptius is the causative agent of Brazilian purpuric fever (BPF), an invasive disease with high mortality, that sporadically manifests in children previously suffering conjunctivitis. Though strains of H.

Helicobacter pylori glycan biosynthesis modulates host immune cell recognition and response
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection MicrobiologyIntroductionThe pathogenic bacterium Helicobacter pylori has evolved glycan-mediated mechanisms to evade host immune defenses. This study tests the hypothesis that genetic disruption of H. pylori glycan biosynthesis alters immune recognition and response

Computation of Optimal Current References for Flux-weakening of Multi-Phase Synchronous Machines [PDF]
, 2012 Multi-phase synchronous machines are more and more used in specific applications where high power density, low bus voltage, wide speed range and fault-tolerant capabilities are required. Due to the high number of degrees of freedom, multi-phase machines

Plasmids and phase variation in Xenorhabdus spp [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1991 Three strains of Xenorhabdus nematophilus (A24, F1, NC116) and strain Dan of Xenorhabdus bovienii were tested to evaluate whether the phase variation observed in these bacteria was in any way connected with plasmids. The plasmid patterns of both phases of A24 and F1 strains were the same, whereas the two NC116 phases had only one band each.

Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas in Children and Adolescents: Expert Recommendations
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas (SPN) is a rare low‐grade malignant exocrine pancreatic tumor, mostly discovered during the second decade of life in females, with a very good prognosis, provided microscopically complete surgical excision is achieved.
