Metatranscriptomic profiling reveals pathogen and host response signatures of pediatric acute sinusitis and upper respiratory infection [PDF]
Background Acute sinusitis (AS) is a frequent cause of antibiotic prescriptions in children. Distinguishing bacterial AS from common viral upper respiratory infections (URIs) is crucial to prevent unnecessary antibiotic use but is challenging with ...

Quantitative bacterial transcriptomics with RNA-seq. [PDF]
RNA sequencing has emerged as the premier approach to study bacterial transcriptomes. While the earliest published studies analyzed the data qualitatively, the data are readily digitized and lend themselves to quantitative analysis. High-resolution RNA sequence (RNA-seq) data allows transcriptional features (promoters, terminators, operons, among ...

Bacterial Response to Oxidative Stress and RNA Oxidation
Bacteria have to cope with oxidative stress caused by distinct Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), derived not only from normal aerobic metabolism but also from oxidants present in their environments.

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.

Processing of bacterial RNA [PDF]
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 ...

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 ...

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.

RNAs: regulators of bacterial virulence [PDF]
RNA-based pathways that regulate protein expression are much more widespread than previously thought. Regulatory RNAs, including 5' and 3' untranslated regions next to the coding sequence, cis-acting antisense RNAs and trans-acting small non-coding RNAs, are effective regulatory molecules that can influence protein expression and function in response ...
