Bap, a Staphylococcus aureus surface protein involved in biofilm formation
(American Society for Microbiology, 2001)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Identification of new genes involved in biofilm formation is needed to understand the molecular basis of strain variation and the pathogenic mechanisms implicated in chronic staphylococcal infections. A biofilm-producing ...
Staphylococcus aureus pathogenicity island DNA is packaged in particles composed of phage proteins
(American Society for Microbiology, 2008)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Staphylococcus aureus pathogenicity islands (SaPIs) have an intimate relationship with temperate staphylococcal phages. During phage growth, SaPIs are induced to replicate and are efficiently encapsidated into special small ...
Beta-lactam antibiotics induce the SOS response and horizontal transfer of virulence factors in Staphylococcus aureus
(American Society for Microbiology, 2006)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Antibiotics that interfere with DNA replication and cell viability activate the SOS response. In Staphylococcus
aureus, the antibiotic-induced SOS response promotes replication and high-frequency horizontal transfer ...
Fitness cost evolution of natural plasmids of staphylococcus aureus
(American Society for Microbiology, 2021)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Plasmids have largely contributed to the spread of antimicrobial resistance genes among Staphylococcus strains. Knowledge about the fitness cost that plasmids confer on clinical staphylococcal isolates and the coevolutionary ...
The regulon of the RNA chaperone CspA and its auto-regulation in Staphylococcus aureus
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are essential to finetune
gene expression. RBPs containing the coldshock
domain are RNA chaperones that have been
extensively studied. However, the RNA targets and
specific functions for ...
Killing niche competitors by remote-control bacteriophage induction
(National Academy of Sciences, 2009)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
A surprising example of interspecies competition is the production
by certain bacteria of hydrogen peroxide at concentrations that are
lethal for others. A case in point is the displacement of Staphylococcus
aureus by ...
Antibiofilm activity of flavonoids on staphylococcal biofilms through targeting BAP amyloids
(Nature Research, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The opportunistic pathogen Staphylococcus aureus is responsible for causing infections related to indwelling medical devices, where this pathogen is able to attach and form biofilms. The intrinsic properties given by the ...
Near-infrared fluorescence imaging as an alternative to bioluminescent bacteria to monitor biomaterial-associated infections
(Elsevier, 2014)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Biomaterial-associated infection is one of the most common complications related with the
implantation of any biomedical device. Several in vivo imaging platforms have emerged as
powerful diagnostic tools to longitudinally ...
The role of ArlRS and VraSR in regulating ceftaroline hypersusceptibility in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
(MDPI, 2021)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections are a global health problem. New control strategies, including fifth-generation cephalosporins such as ceftaroline, have been developed, however rare sporadic resistance ...
Experimental polymorphism survey in intergenic regions of the icaADBCR locus in Staphylococcus aureus isolates from periprosthetic joint infections
(MDPI, 2022)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Staphylococcus aureus is a leading cause of prosthetic joint infections (PJI) characterized
by bacterial biofilm formation and recalcitrance to immune-mediated clearance and antibiotics.
The molecular events behind PJI ...
