For nearly 3 decades, listeriologists and immunologists have used mainly three strains of the
same serovar (1/2a) to analyze the virulence of the bacterial pathogen Listeria …

Clostridium difficile is a major cause of diarrhoea associated with antibiotherapy. Exposed to
stresses in the gut, C. difficile can survive by inducing protection, detoxification and repair …

To understand the molecular mechanisms that contribute to the stress responses of the
important foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes, we collected 139 strains (meat, n …

In Listeria monocytogenes, the full details of how stress signals are integrated into the σB
regulatory pathway are not yet available. To help shed light on this question, we investigated …

As for many model organisms, the amount of Listeria omics data produced has recently
increased exponentially. There are now> 80 published complete Listeria genomes, around …

Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive firmicute that causes foodborne infections, in part
due to its ability to use multiple strategies, including biofilm formation, to survive adverse …

The alternative sigma factor B (σB) contributes to the stress tolerance of the foodborne
pathogen Listeria monocytogenes by upregulating the general stress response. We …

Upon ingestion of contaminated food, L isteria monocytogenes can cause serious infections
in humans that are normally treated with β‐lactam antibiotics. These target L isteria's five …

Bacteria can cope with toxic compounds such as antibiotics by inducing genes for their
detoxification. A common detoxification strategy is compound excretion by ATP‐binding …

Proteomic analysis of foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes after treatment with three
disinfectants based on ammonium salts of pyridoxal oxime (POD) reveal perturbation of …
