Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is a pathogen implicated in several infant
diarrhea or diarrheal outbreaks in areas of endemicity. Although multiple genes involved in …

Mechanisms controlling brain size include the regulation of neural progenitor cell
proliferation, differentiation, survival and migration,. Here we show that ephrin-A/EphA …

ABSTRACT A method to rapidly generate gene replacement constructs by fusion PCR is
described for Aspergillus nidulans. The utility of the approach is demonstrated by green …

Abstract “Recombineering,” in vivo genetic engineering with short DNA homologies, is
changing how constructs are made. The methods are simple, precise, efficient, rapid, and …

A polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based procedure without any cloning step was
developed for a rapid mutagenesis/deletion of chromosomal target genes in Yersinia. For …

Commensal and pathogenic Escherichia coli adherence to host and environmental surfaces
is mediated by a variety of adhesins. Although extensively studied as a model bacterium …

Escherichia coli is the primary cause of urinary tract infection (UTI) in the developed world.
The major factors associated with the virulence of uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) are fimbrial …

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is capable of producing cellulose as the main
exopolysaccharide compound of the biofilm matrix. It has been shown for Gluconacetobacter …

Quorum sensing is a process by which bacteria communicate by using secreted chemical
signaling molecules called autoinducers. Many bacterial species modulate the expression of …

Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is recognized as an emerging cause of diarrhea
