Regulation of virulence genes in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2001
Mycobacterium tuberculosis has demonstrated remarkable ability to survive in diverse conditions encountered during the infection process. These involve surviving the bactericidal stresses within the macrophage, the anaerobic and nutritionally altered environment of the granuloma, and the metabolically inactive latent state.

"Leishmania infantum" : molecular analysis for identification of potential virulence factors and genes of diagnostic use [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Leishmania infantum is the causative agents of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis, a fatal disease if left untreated. In Southern Europe, the number of HIV/Leishmania infantum co-infections is increasing and becomes an emerging concern for the public health.

Role of glucose and CcpA in capsule expression and virulence of Streptococcus suis

open access: yes, 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.

Genes, Pathways, and Mechanisms Involved in the Virulence of Mucorales [PDF]

open access: yesGenes, 2020
The order Mucorales is a group of ancient fungi with limited tools for gene manipulation. The main consequence of this manipulation unwillingness is the limited knowledge about its biology compared to other fungal groups. However, the emerging of mucormycosis, a fungal infection caused by Mucorales, is attracting the medical spotlight in recent years ...

Integrated regulation of the type III secretion system and other virulence determinants in Ralstonia solanacearum

open access: yes, 2006
In many plant and animal bacterial pathogens, the Type III secretion system (TTSS) that directly translocates effector proteins into the eukaryotic host cells is essential for the development of disease.

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Correlation analysis of whole genome sequencing of a pathogenic Escherichia coli strain of Inner Mongolian origin

open access: yesScientific Reports
Anal swabs of 1-month-old Holstein calves with diarrhea were collected from an intensive cattle farm, and a highly pathogenic Escherichia coli strain was obtained by isolation and purification. To study the virulence and resistance genes of pathogenic E.
