Bacteria have evolved many different signal transduction systems that sense signals and
generate a variety of responses. Generally, most abundant are transcriptional regulators …

Double-stranded DNA tailed bacteriophages typically code for 50–200 genes, of which 15–
35 are involved in virion structure and assembly, DNA packaging, lysis, and DNA …

Aim The use of cannabis, which contains multiple antimicrobials, may be a risk factor for
periodontitis. We hypothesized that multiple oral spirochetes would be phytocannabinoid …

Abstract Methylarsenite [MAs (III)] is a highly toxic arsenical produced by some microbes as
an antibiotic. In this study, we demonstrate that a PadR family transcriptional regulator …

Low-copy-number plasmids require sophisticated genetic devices to achieve efficient
segregation of plasmid copies during cell division. Plasmid R388 uses a unique segregation …

Rv1176c of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv belongs to the PadR-s1 subfamily of the
PadR family of protein. Rv1176c forms a stable dimer in solution. Its stability is characterized …

Sequencing transposon mutant libraries have been pivotal in annotating essential and non-
essential genes in bacteria. This is particularly very helpful in the case of Mycobacterium …

Klebsiella pneumoniae is a member of the ESKAPE panel of pathogens that are top priority
to tackle AMR. Bacterial peptidyl tRNA hydrolase (Pth), an essential, ubiquitous enzyme …

PadR is a bacterial transcriptional regulator that controls the expression of phenolic acid
decarboxylase (PadC) in response to phenolic acids to prevent their toxic effects. During …

MSMEG_6227, a putative transcriptional regulator from Mycobacterium smegmatis, was
cloned and expressed in E. coli BL21 cells. The expressed protein was purified by …
