Coordinated cyclic-di-GMP repression of salmonella motility through YcgR and cellulose
(American Society for Microbiology, 2013)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP) is a secondary messenger that controls a variety of cellular processes, including the switch between a biofilm and a planktonic bacterial lifestyle. This nucleotide binds to cellular effectors in ...
Bap, a biofilm matrix protein of Staphylococcus aureus prevents cellular internalization through binding to GP96 host receptor
(Public Library of Science, 2012)
Artículo / Artikulua,
The biofilm matrix, composed of exopolysaccharides, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids, plays a well-known role as a defence
structure, protecting bacteria from the host immune system and antimicrobial therapy. However, ...
Amyloid structures as biofilm matrix scaffolds
(American Society for Microbiology, 2016)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Recent insights into bacterial biofilm matrix structures have induced a paradigm shift toward the recognition of amyloid fibers
as common building block structures that confer stability to the exopolysaccharide matrix. ...
Biofilm switch and immune response determinants at early stages of infection
(Elsevier (Cell Press), 2013)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Biofilm development is recognized as a major virulence factor underlying most chronic bacterial infections. When a biofilm community is established, planktonic cells growing in the surroundings of a tissue switch to a ...
Genome-wide antisense transcription drives mRNA processing in bacteria
(National Academy of Sciences, 2011)
Artículo / Artikulua,
RNA deep sequencing technologies are revealing unexpected levels of complexity in bacterial transcriptomes with the discovery of abundant noncoding RNAs, antisense RNAs, long 5′ and 3′ untranslated regions, and alternative ...
Salmonella biofilm development depends on the phosphorylation status of RcsB
(American Society for Microbiology, 2012)
Artículo / Artikulua,
The Rcs phosphorelay pathway is a complex signaling pathway involved in the regulation of many cell surface structures in enteric
bacteria. In response to environmental stimuli, the sensor histidine kinase (RcsC) ...
Staphylococcal Bap proteins build amyloid scaffold biofilm matrices in response to environmental signals
(Public Library of Science, 2016)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Major components of the biofilm matrix scaffold are proteins that assemble to create a unified structure that maintain bacteria attached to each other and to surfaces. We provide evidence that a surface protein present in ...
Biofilm matrix exoproteins induce a protective immune response against Staphylococcus aureus biofilm infection
(American Society for Microbiology, 2014)
Artículo / Artikulua,
The Staphylococcus aureus biofilm mode of growth is associated with several chronic infections that are very difficult to treat due
to the recalcitrant nature of biofilms to clearance by antimicrobials. Accordingly, there ...
Evaluation of surface microtopography engineered by direct laser interference for bacterial anti-biofouling
(2015)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Biofilm formation by bacterial pathogens on the surface of medical and industrial settings is a 25 serious health problem. Modification of the biomaterial surface topography is a promising 26 strategy to prevent bacterial ...
Lack of the PGA exopolysaccharide in Salmonella as an adaptive trait for survival in the host
(Public Library of Science, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Many bacteria build biofilm matrices using a conserved exopolysaccharide named PGA or
PNAG (poly-β-1,6-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine). Interestingly, while E. coli and other members
of the family Enterobacteriaceae encode the ...
