From ingestion to colonization: the influence of the host environment on regulation of the LEE encoded type III secretion system in enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) binds to host tissue and intimately attaches to intestinal cells using a dedicated type III secretion system (T3SS). This complex multi-protein organelle is encoded within a large pathogenicity island called the

How Do the Virulence Factors of Shigella Work Together to Cause Disease?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
Shigella is the major cause of bacillary dysentery world-wide. It is divided into four species, named S. flexneri, S. sonnei, S. dysenteriae, and S. boydii, which are distinct genomically and in their ability to cause disease.

Antibacterial Siderophores of Pandoraea Pathogens and Their Impact on the Diseased Lung Microbiota

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Genome mining of environmental and pathogenic Pandoraea species identified a conserved NRPS gene cluster and led to the discovery of novel siderophores, pandorabactins, which exert their antibacterial activity by depleting iron from competitors. Bioinformatic analysis of sputum from cystic fibrosis patients coupled with bioassays indicates that ...

Computational Motility Tracking of Calcium Dynamics in Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Toxoplasma gondii is the causative agent responsible for toxoplasmosis and serves as one of the most common parasites in the world. For a successful lytic cycle, T. gondii must traverse biological barriers in order to invade host cells, and as such, motility is critical for its virulence. Calcium signaling, governed by fluctuations in cytosolic calcium

Development of ListeriaBase and comparative analysis of Listeria monocytogenes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Listeria consists of both pathogenic and non-pathogenic species. Reports of similarities between the genomic content between some pathogenic and non-pathogenic species necessitates the investigation of these species at the genomic level to ...

Virulence Factors of Aeromonas hydrophila: In the Wake of Reclassification

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The ubiquitous “jack-of-all-trades,” Aeromonas hydrophila, is a freshwater, Gram-negative bacterial pathogen under revision in regard to its phylogenetic and functional affiliation with other aeromonads.

Enhanced Synergistic Photothermal–Chemotherapy in Bacterial Keratitis Treatment Using Halogen‐Bonded Organic Frameworks (XOFs) Based on N⋯Br+⋯N Bonds

open access: yesAggregate, EarlyView.
Two novel XOFs based on [N···Br+···N] interactions were constructed. The XOFs(Br) deliver superior antibacterial properties compared with XOFs(I), due to a greater oxidation capability. Moreover, XOF(Br)‐TPPA, exhibiting greater hydrophilicity, shows superior antibacterial properties relative to XOF(Br)‐TPPE, which is weakly hydrophilic.
