The enterococcal surface protein, Esp, is involved in Enterococcus faecalis biofilm formation
(American Society for Microbiology, 2001)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The enterococcal surface protein, Esp, is a high-molecular-weight surface protein of unknown function whose
frequency is significantly increased among infection-derived Enterococcus faecalis isolates. In this work, a ...
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, ...
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 ...
Protein A-mediated multicellular behavior in Staphylococcus aureus
(American Society for Microbiology, 2008)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The capacity of Staphylococcus aureus to form biofilms on host tissues and implanted medical devices is one of the major virulence traits underlying persistent and chronic infections. The matrix in which S. aureus cells ...
Relevant role of fibronectin-binding proteins in Staphylococcus aureus biofilm-associated foreign-body infections
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Staphylococcus aureus can establish chronic infections on implanted medical devices due to its capacity to form biofilms. Analysis of the factors that assemble cells into a biofilm has revealed the occurrence of strains ...
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) ...
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 ...
