RinA controls phage-mediated packaging and transfer of virulence genes in gram-positive bacteria
(Oxford University Press, 2011)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Phage-mediated transfer of microbial genetic elements plays a crucial role in bacterial life style and evolution. In this study, we identify the RinA family of phage-encoded proteins as activators required for transcription ...
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, ...
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 ...
Sensory deprivation in Staphylococcus aureus
(Springer Nature, 2018)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Bacteria use two-component systems (TCSs) to sense and respond to environmental
changes. The core genome of the major human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus encodes 16
TCSs, one of which (WalRK) is essential. Here we show ...
