Regulating Bacterial Virulence with RNA [PDF]
Annual Review of Microbiology, 2017 Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) regulating virulence have been identified in most pathogens. This review discusses RNA-mediated mechanisms exploited by bacterial pathogens to successfully infect and colonize their hosts. It discusses the most representative RNA-mediated regulatory mechanisms employed by two intracellular [Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella ...

Pathogens, 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

RNA Thermometers in Bacterial Pathogens [PDF]
Microbiology 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.

Bacterial Small RNA Regulators [PDF]
Critical 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.

Regulatory RNA in Bacterial Pathogens [PDF]
Cell Host & Microbe, 2010 Bacteria constitute a large and diverse class of infectious agents, causing devastating diseases in humans, animals, and plants. Our understanding of gene expression control, which forms the basis for successful prevention and treatment strategies, has until recently neglected the many roles that regulatory RNAs might have in bacteria. In recent years,

RETRACTED: Bacterial persistence by RNA endonucleases [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2011 Bacteria form persisters, individual cells that are highly tolerant to different types of antibiotics. Persister cells are genetically identical to nontolerant kin but have entered a dormant state in which they are recalcitrant to the killing activity of the antibiotics. The molecular mechanisms underlying bacterial persistence are unknown.

Spool-nematic ordering of dsDNA and dsRNA under confinement [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 148101 (2024), 2023 The ability of double-stranded DNA or RNA to locally melt and form kinks leads to strong non-linear elasticity effects that qualitatively affect their packing in confined spaces. Using analytical theory and numerical simulation we show that kink formation entails a mixed spool-nematic ordering of double-stranded DNA or RNA in spherical capsids ...

Comparison of DNA and RNA sequencing of total nucleic acids from human cervix for metagenomics
Scientific Reports, 2021 Although metagenomics and metatranscriptomics are commonly used to identify bacteria and viruses in human samples, few studies directly compare these strategies.
