Small RNAs in bacteria and archaea: who they are, what they do, and how they do it

EGH Wagner, P Romby - Advances in genetics, 2015 - Elsevier
Small RNAs are ubiquitously present regulators in all kingdoms of life. Most bacterial and
archaeal small RNAs (sRNAs) act by antisense mechanisms on multiple target mRNAs …

Regulation of bacterial virulence by Csr (Rsm) systems

CA Vakulskas, AH Potts, P Babitzke… - Microbiology and …, 2015 - Am Soc Microbiol

Polyhydroxyalkanoates: much more than biodegradable plastics

NI López, MJ Pettinari, PI Nikel, BS Méndez - Advances in applied …, 2015 - Elsevier
Bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are isotactic polymers that play a critical role in
central metabolism, as they act as dynamic reservoirs of carbon and reducing equivalents …

The Crc protein participates in down‐regulation of the Lon gene to promote rhamnolipid production and rhl quorum sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

N Yang, S Ding, F Chen, X Zhang, Y Xia… - Molecular …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Rhamnolipid acts as a virulence factor during P seudomonas aeruginosa infection. Here, we
show that deletion of the catabolite repression control (crc) gene in P. aeruginosa leads to a …

The Crc/CrcZ‐CrcY global regulatory system helps the integration of gluconeogenic and glycolytic metabolism in Pseudomonas putida

R La Rosa, J Nogales, F Rojo - Environmental microbiology, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
In metabolically versatile bacteria, carbon catabolite repression (CCR) facilitates the
preferential assimilation of the most efficient carbon sources, improving growth rates and …

Quantitative proteomics unravels that the post-transcriptional regulator Crc modulates the generation of vesicles and secreted virulence determinants of Pseudomonas …

JA Reales-Calderón, F Corona, L Monteoliva, C Gil… - Journal of …, 2015 - Elsevier
Recent research indicates that the post-transcriptional regulator Crc modulates susceptibility
to antibiotics and virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Several P. aeruginosa virulence …

Transcriptional and translational control through the 5′‐leader region of the dmpR master regulatory gene of phenol metabolism

A Madhushani, T del Peso‐Santos… - Environmental …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Expression of pathways for dissimilation of toxic aromatic compounds such as (methyl)
