      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 ...
    • Coordinated cyclic-di-GMP repression of salmonella motility through YcgR and cellulose 

      Zorraquino Salvo, Violeta; García Martínez, Begoña Upna Orcid; Latasa Osta, Cristina Upna; Echeverz Sarasúa, Maite Upna Orcid; Toledo Arana, Alejandro Upna Orcid; Valle Turrillas, Jaione Upna Orcid; Lasa Uzcudun, Íñigo Upna Orcid; Solano Goñi, Cristina Upna Orcid (American Society for Microbiology, 2013)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      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 ...
    • Evaluation of surface microtopography engineered by direct laser interference for bacterial anti-biofouling 

      Valle Turrillas, Jaione Upna Orcid; Burgui Erice, Saioa Upna Orcid; Langheinrich, Denise; Gil Puig, Carmen Upna Orcid; Solano Goñi, Cristina Upna Orcid; Toledo Arana, Alejandro Upna Orcid; Helbig, Ralf; Lasagni, Andrés; Lasa Uzcudun, Íñigo Upna Orcid (2015)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      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 ...
    • Expression of the biofilm-associated protein interferes with host protein receptors of Staphylococcus aureus and alters the infective process 

      Cucarella, Carme; Tormo Más, María Ángeles; Knecht, Erwin; Amorena Zabalza, Beatriz Upna; Lasa Uzcudun, Íñigo Upna Orcid; Foster, Timothy J.; Penadés, José R. (American Society for Microbiology, 2002)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      The adherence of Staphylococcus aureus to soluble proteins and extracellular-matrix components of the host is one of the key steps in the pathogenesis of staphylococcal infections. S. aureus presents a family of adhesins ...
    • Global assessment of small RNAs reveals a non-coding transcript involved in biofilm formation and attachment in Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC 17978 

      Álvarez Fraga, Laura; Rumbo Feal, Soraya; Pérez, Astrid; Gómez, Manuel J.; Valle Turrillas, Jaione Upna Orcid (Public Library of Science, 2017)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Many strains of Acinetobacter baumannii have been described as being able to form biofilm. Small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) control gene expression in many regulatory circuits in bacteria. The aim of the present work was to ...
    • Protein A-mediated multicellular behavior in Staphylococcus aureus 

      Merino, Nekane Upna; Toledo Arana, Alejandro Upna Orcid; Vergara Irigaray, Marta Upna; Valle Turrillas, Jaione Upna Orcid; Solano Goñi, Cristina Upna Orcid; Calvo, Enrique; Lopez, Juan Antonio; Foster, Timothy J.; Penadés, José R.; Lasa Uzcudun, Íñigo Upna Orcid (American Society for Microbiology, 2008)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      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 ...
    • Role of biofilm-associated protein bap in the pathogenesis of bovine Staphylococcus aureus 

      Cucarella, Carme; Tormo Más, María Ángeles; Ubeda, Carles; Trotonda, María Pilar; Monzon, Marta; Peris, Cristòfol; Amorena Zabalza, Beatriz Upna; Lasa Uzcudun, Íñigo Upna Orcid; Penadés, José R. (American Society for Microbiology, 2004)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Staphylococcus aureus is a common cause of intramammary infections, which frequently become chronic, associated with the ability of the bacteria to produce biofilm. Here, we report a relationship between the ability to ...
    • Towards the identification of the common features of bacterial biofilm development 

      Lasa Uzcudun, Íñigo Upna Orcid (Sociedad Española de Microbiología, 2006)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Los microorganismos pueden vivir y proliferar como células individuales que nadan libremente en el medio o crecer en comunidades multicelulares muy bien organizadas dentro de una matriz que ellas mismas han sintetizado y ...
