Caulobacter crescentus is an aquatic Gram-negative alphaproteobacterium that undergoes
multiple changes in cell shape, organelle production, subcellular distribution of proteins, and …

Microorganisms make tractable model systems and Caulobacter crescentus has emerged
as the main model for understanding the regulation of the bacterial cell cycle. Mechanisms …

Recent work has revealed that Clostridioides difficile, a major cause of nosocomial diarrheal
disease, exhibits phenotypic heterogeneity within a clonal population as a result of phase …

Wrinkly spreader (WS) genotypes evolve repeatedly in model Pseudomonas populations
undergoing adaptive radiation. Previous work identified genes contributing to the …

Helicobacter pylori encounters a wide range of pH within the human stomach. In a
comparison of H. pylori cultured in vitro under neutral or acidic conditions, about 15% of …

The initiation of chromosomal DNA replication starts at a replication origin, which in bacteria
is a discrete locus that contains DNA sequence motifs recognized by an initiator protein …

Two‐component system (TCS) signaling circuits regulate numerous cellular processes in
response to environmental cues in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. These signaling …
