Identifying Virulence Determinants In Pathogenic Mycobacteria Via Changes In Host Cell Mitochondrial Morphology [PDF]
The goal of this study is to develop a computational model of the progression of changes in mitochondrial phenotype resulting from infection with pathogenic mycobacteria. This ultimately will enable a large-scale virulence screen of mutant bacterial libraries. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is an intracellular pathogen, but only a small number of its

Photo‐controlled Release of Urea Enables the Detection of Urea‐Urease Intermediates by cryo‐FTIR
Caged compounds are a valuable tool to photocontrol the release of enzymatic substrates in a reaction. For example, caged urea molecules were proposed to control urea delivery to urease reactions and aid the determination of the catalytic mechanism of this enzyme.

Impact of Salmonella genome rearrangement on gene expression
Abstract In addition to nucleotide variation, many bacteria also undergo changes at a much larger scale via rearrangement of their genome structure (GS) around long repeat sequences. These rearrangements result in genome fragments shifting position and/or orientation in the genome without necessarily affecting the underlying nucleotide sequence.

Optimal virulence strategies in epidemiological models with asymptomatic transmission [PDF]
Asymptomatic infection has gained notoriety as an important feature of infectious disease dynamics. Despite increasing attention, there have been few rigorous examinations of how asymptomatic transmission influences pathogen evolution. In this study, we apply evolutionary invasion analysis to compute optimal strategies for viruses evolving in a system ...
