2015-04-09ZeitschriftenartikelA Gateway-Based System for Fast Evaluation of Protein-Protein Interactions in Bacteria Protein-protein interactions are important layers of regulation in all kingdoms of life. Identification and characterization of these interactions is one challenging task of the post-genomic era and crucial for understanding ...

2015-06-16ZeitschriftenartikelCross talk between the response regulators PhoB and TctD allows for the integration of diverse environmental signals in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Two-component systems (TCS) serve as stimulus-response coupling mechanisms to allow organisms to adapt to a variety of environmental conditions. The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa encodes for more than 100 ...

2009-02-25ZeitschriftenartikelCross-talk between type three secretion system and metabolism in Yersinia. Pathogenic yersiniae utilize a type three secretion system (T3SS) to inject Yop proteins into host cells in order to undermine their immune response. YscM1 and YscM2 proteins have been reported to be functionally equivalent ...

2014-12-19ZeitschriftenartikelDiscrete and overlapping functions of peptidoglycan synthases in growth, cell division and virulence of Listeria monocytogenes Upon ingestion of contaminated food, Listeria monocytogenes can cause serious infections in humans that are normally treated with β-lactam antibiotics. These target Listeria's five high molecular weight penicillin-binding ...

2013-07-12ZeitschriftenartikelDNA Uptake by the Nosocomial Pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii Occurs during Movement along Wet Surfaces The emergence of Acinetobacter baumannii as an increasingly multidrug-resistant nosocomial pathogen largely relies on acquisition of resistance genes via horizontal gene transfer. Here, we demonstrate that many clinical ...

2012-08-05ZeitschriftenartikelFliA expression analysis and influence of the regulatory proteins RpoN, FleQ and FliA on virulence and in vivo fitness in Legionella pneumophila In Legionella pneumophila, the regulation of the flagellum and the expression of virulence traits are linked. FleQ, RpoN and FliA are the major regulators of the flagellar regulon. We demonstrated here that all three ...

2011-04-29ZeitschriftenartikelIntra- and Interspecies Genomic Transfer of the Enterococcus faecalis Pathogenicity Island Enterococci are the third leading cause of hospital associated infections and have gained increased importance due to their fast adaptation to the clinical environment by acquisition of antibiotic resistance and pathogenicity ...

2010-05-04ZeitschriftenartikelIsotopologue Profiling of Legionella pneumophila Role of Serine and Glucose as Carbon SubstratesLegionella pneumophila (Lp) is commonly found in freshwater habitats but is also the causative agent of Legionnaires' disease when infecting humans. Although various virulence factors have been reported, little is known ...

2014-12-04ZeitschriftenartikelLow Rates of Antimicrobial-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae in Wildlife in Taï National Park, Côte d’Ivoire, Surrounded by Villages with High Prevalence of Multiresistant ESBL-Producing Escherichia coli in People and Domestic Animals Antimicrobial resistance genes can be found in all ecosystems, including those where antibiotic selective pressure has never been exerted. We investigated resistance genes in a collection of faecal samples of wildlife ...

2014-06-15ZeitschriftenartikelPipasic: similarity and expression correction for strain-level identification and quantification in metaproteomics Motivation: Metaproteomic analysis allows studying the interplay of organisms or functional groups and has become increasingly popular also for diagnostic purposes. However, difficulties arise owing to the high sequence ...

2012-12-21ZeitschriftenartikelProtein-Protein Interaction Domains of Bacillus subtilis DivIVA DivIVA proteins are curvature-sensitive membrane binding proteins that recruit other proteins to the poles and the division septum. They consist of a conserved N-terminal lipid binding domain fused to a less conserved ...

2008-06-10ZeitschriftenartikelThe mycobacterial DNA-binding protein 1 (MDP1) from Mycobacterium bovis BCG influences various growth characteristics Background: Pathogenic mycobacteria such as M. tuberculosis, M. bovis or M. leprae are characterised by their extremely slow growth rate which plays an important role in mycobacterial virulence and eradication of the ...

2007-07-05ZeitschriftenartikelThe Yersinia enterocolitica type three secretion chaperone SycO is integrated into the Yop regulatory network and binds to the Yop secretion protein YscM1 Background: Pathogenic yersiniae (Y. pestis, Y. pseudotuberculosis, Y. enterocolitica) share a virulence plasmid encoding a type three secretion system (T3SS). This T3SS comprises more than 40 constituents. Among these ...

2015-06-11ZeitschriftenartikelThree Dimensional Checkerboard Synergy Analysis of Colistin, Meropenem, Tigecycline against Multidrug-Resistant Clinical Klebsiella pneumonia Isolates The spread of carbapenem-non-susceptible Klebsiella pneumoniae strains bearing different resistance determinants is a rising problem worldwide. Especially infections with KPC (Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase) - producers ...
