Role of glucose and CcpA in capsule expression and virulence of Streptococcus suis [PDF]
, 2011 Streptococcus suis is one of the most important pathogens in pigs and is also an emerging zoonotic agent. After crossing the epithelial barrier, S. suis causes bacteraemia, resulting in meningitis, endocarditis and bronchopneumonia.

The central metabolism regulator EIIAGlc switches Salmonella from growth arrest to acute virulence through activation of virulence factor secretion [PDF]
, 2014 The ability of Salmonella to cause disease depends on metabolic activities and virulence factors. Here, we show that a key metabolic protein, EIIAGlc, is absolutely essential for acute infection, but not for Salmonella survival, in a mouse typhoid fever ...

Transposon mutagenesis reveals Pseudomonas cannabina pv. alisalensis optimizes its virulence factors for pathogenicity on different hosts [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Pseudomonas cannabina pv. alisalensis (Pcal), which causes bacterial blight disease of Brassicaceae, is an economically important pathogen worldwide. To identify Pcal genes involved in pathogenesis, we conducted a screen for 1,040 individual Pcal KB211 ...
