Genes required for in situ sediment survival of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1.
(2005)
We determined the function of one sediment-survival gene, examining mexF in greater detail. The protein encoded by mexF shares high homology with MexF in pathogenic Pseudomonas where it has been shown to confer a multidrug ...
Respiration and energy metabolism of Escherichia coli in the intestine.
(2007)
Colonization of the gastrointestinal tract by Escherichia coli is dependent upon its ability to compete with the commensal microflora. We have established that nutrient acquisition is important for competition and fitness ...
Impact of physiological state and macro-nutrient ratio on microbial surface thermodynamics and transport.
(2002)
As both deposition and retardation occur during bacterial transport, the deposition coefficient and retardation factor have been widely used individually in describing the transport of bacteria through porous media. Rijnaarts ...
Studies on the virulence mechanisms of Clostridium sordellii.
(2006)
Abstract not available.
Responses of Terrestrial Biogeochemical Cycles to Global Change – Syntheses and Data-Model Integration
(2016-12)
Global observations and model simulations show that atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations and surface temperatures have been and will keep increasing. These environmental changes have significant influences on ...
Mechanism of cellular intoxication by large clostridial toxins.
(2002)
Clostridium sordellii lethal toxin (TcsL) is a large clostridial toxin (LCT) that glucosylates Ras, Rac and Ral. In chapter II, using a suite of inhibitors, steps in cell entry by TcsL were dissected and entry appears to ...
Microbiology of water and wastewater: Discovery of a new genus numerically dominant in municipal wastewater and antimicrobial resistances in numerically dominant bacteria from Oklahoma lakes.
(2005)
Three bacterial isolates from municipal wastewater were investigated for their phenotypic, biochemical, and molecular characters. All strains were isolated from municipal wastewater, and the type strain, NRS1T, was isolated ...
Unprecedented high-resolution view of bacterial operon architecture revealed by RNA sequencing
(2014-07-08)
We analyzed the transcriptome of Escherichia coli K-12 by strand-specific RNA sequencing at single-nucleotide resolution during steady-state (logarithmic-phase) growth and upon entry into stationary phase in glucose minimal ...
Characterization of Some Actinomyces-Like Isolates from Human Clinical Sources: Description of Varibaculum cambriensis gen. nov., sp. nov.
(2003-02)
Fifteen strains of an anaerobic, catalase-negative, gram-positive diphtheroid-shaped bacterium recovered from human sources were characterized by phenotypic and molecular chemical and molecular genetic methods. The ...
Enzyme systems involved in interspecies hydrogen and formate transfer between syntrophic fatty and aromatic acid degraders and Methanospirillum hungatei
(2013)
The oxidation of either the fatty acid butyrate or the aromatic acid benzoate is essential for the efficient degradation of complex organic material to methane because they are central intermediates. The oxidation of ...
