Bacterial transfer RNAs [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2015
Transfer RNA is an essential adapter molecule that is found across all three domains of life. The primary role of transfer RNA resides in its critical involvement in the accurate translation of messenger RNA codons during protein synthesis and, therefore, ultimately in the determination of cellular gene expression.

Genomic analysis of 61 Chlamydia psittaci strains reveals extensive divergence associated with host preference

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2023
Background Chlamydia (C.) psittaci, the causative agent of avian chlamydiosis and human psittacosis, is a genetically heterogeneous species. Its broad host range includes parrots and many other birds, but occasionally also humans (via zoonotic ...

Bacterial Small RNA Regulators [PDF]

open access: yesCritical Reviews in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2005
Small regulatory RNAs can modify the activity of proteins and the stability and translation of mRNAs. They have now been found in a wide range of organisms, and can play previously unsuspected critical regulatory roles. The bacterial small RNAs include two major classes.

Processing of bacterial RNA [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1981
Processing of RNA is a feature of RNA metabolism which contributes to the determination of the fmal population of active RNA molecules in the cell. Pro- cessing is the sum of events which converts a primary RNA transcript into a functional molecule. RNA processing in bacteria consists mainly of two parts, modification of nucleotides and cutting and ...

RNA Thermometers in Bacterial Pathogens [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2018
ABSTRACT Temperature variation is one of the multiple parameters a microbial pathogen encounters when it invades a warm-blooded host. To survive and thrive at host body temperature, human pathogens have developed various strategies to sense and respond to their ambient temperature.

Comparative Genome Analysis of 33 Chlamydia Strains Reveals Characteristic Features of Chlamydia Psittaci and Closely Related Species

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
To identify genome-based features characteristic of the avian and human pathogen Chlamydia (C.) psittaci and related chlamydiae, we analyzed whole-genome sequences of 33 strains belonging to 12 species. Using a novel genome analysis tool termed Roary ILP

Regional seropositivity for Borrelia burgdorferi and associated risk factors: findings from the Rhineland Study, Germany

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2022
Background Lyme borreliosis is the most prevalent vector-borne disease in Europe, and numbers might increase due to climate change. However, borreliosis is not notifiable in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), Germany.

Seroepidemiology of Borrelia burgdorferi s.l. among German National Cohort (NAKO) Participants, Hanover

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Lyme borreliosis is the leading tick-related illness in Europe, caused by Borrelia Burgdorferi s.l. Lower Saxony, Germany, including its capital, Hanover, has a higher proportion of infected ticks than central European countries, justifying a research ...

Sotrovimab retains activity against SARS-CoV-2 omicron variant BQ.1.1 in a non-human primate model

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
The SARS-CoV2 Omicron variants have acquired new Spike mutations leading to escape from the most of the currently available monoclonal antibody treatments reducing the options for patients suffering from severe Covid-19.
