Yersinia pestis Genotyping

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
To the Editor: Drancourt et al. (1) report the development of an original genotyping system for Yersinia pestis based on intergenic spacer sequencing. However, the approach appears to rely upon the characterization of polymorphisms due to tandem repeat variation.

Parallel independent evolution of pathogenicity within the genus Yersinia. [PDF]

, 2014
The genus Yersinia has been used as a model system to study pathogen evolution. Using whole-genome sequencing of all Yersinia species, we delineate the gene complement of the whole genus and define patterns of virulence evolution.

The interaction of Yersinia pestis with erythrocytes [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2002
Human and murine erythrocytes (RBC) were invaded by Yersinia pestis in vivo and in vitro during a short period and were probably used as an essential source of iron and porphyrin for survival, effective gross multiplication and rapid spread of these bacteria in the bloodstream of mammals. Both iron and porphyrin were extracted by Y. pestis from the RBC

Approaches for the Inactivation of <i>Yersinia pestis</i>. [PDF]

Appl Biosaf
Introduction: Yersinia pestis is the gram-negative, facultative intracellular bacterium that causes the disease known as plague. Due to the risk for aerosol transmission, a low infectious dose, and the acute and lethal nature of pneumonic plague, research activities ...

The tip complex of the "Yersinia enterocolitica" injectisome [PDF]

, 2008
Type III secretion systems are used by many pathogenic bacteria to deliver effector proteins into host cells. The secretion machinery, also known as the injectisome, is composed of a basal body anchored in the bacterial membranes and an external needle ...

Methionine transport in Yersinia pestis [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1975
Yersinia pestis TJW, an avirulent wild-type strain, requires phenylalanine and methionine for growth. It was of interest to examine and define the methionine transport system because of this requirement. The methionine system showed saturation kinetics with a Km for transport of approximately 9 times 10(-7) M.

Gasdermin‐Mediated Pyroptosis: Novel Strategies Against Colorectal Cancer

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Pyroptosis is a double‐edged sword in colorectal cancer (CRC): chronic low‐grade pyroptosis promotes tumor progression, whereas acute induction of pyroptosis in cancer cells triggers antitumor immunity and enhances therapeutic response. Targeting gasdermin‐mediated pyroptosis represents a promising strategy for CRC treatment.
