Different RsbR paralogs in Bacillus subtilis affect cell viability when exposed to environmental stress
Osborne, Jacob; Boyne, Nick; Cabeen, Matthew T. (Oklahoma State University, 2019-04-26)Stress is a universal phenomenon experienced by all living organisms. Bacteria have to react to stress quickly in order to survive in their environment. Environmental stress can be caused by a variety of factors, including ... -
Identification of new signaling components that govern biofilm formation by P. aeruginosa
Shafer, Samantha Elaine; Smith, Kate; Cabeen, Matthew T. (Oklahoma State University, 2019-04-26)Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that is often associated with severe forms of many infections, including bronchiectasis and infections in the gut. Mortality is increased in patients who become infected ... -
Insights into mechanisms of antifungal activity by innate immune cells
Nelson, Benjamin N. (2023-05)Cryptococcus neoformans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen that causes over 180,000 annual deaths in HIV/AIDS patients. Innate phagocytes such as dendritic cells (DCs) and macrophages are the first cells to interact with ... -
Molecular regulation of bacterial stress responses and pyocin production
Hamm, Christopher William (2023-05)Bacteria have a variety of systems to sense stress and respond ensuring the survival of cells. Bacillus subtilis uses stressosomes—large cytoplasmic multiprotein complexes—to sense environmental stressors and trigger the ... -
Stress response of RsbR protein paralogs in Bacillus subtilis under 1M sodium stress
Bush, Sidney Robert; Toews, Madeline; Cabeen, Matthew T. (Oklahoma State University, 2019-04-26)Stress is a universal phenomenon, and all organisms need a way to cope with it. The Model bacterium Bacillus subtilis has a complex of proteins known as a stressosome that is responsible for sensing stressors in the ...
