Depending on their physiology and metabolism, bacteria can carry out diverse redox
processes for energy acquisition, which facilitates adaptation to environmental or host …

The transmissible locus of stress tolerance (tLST) is found mainly in beta-and gamma-
Proteobacteria and confers tolerance to elevated temperature, pressure, and chlorine. This …

Heavy metal and antibiotic-resistant bacteria from livestock feces are ecological and public
health problems. However, the distribution and relationships of antibiotic resistance genes …

Heat stress can cause cell death by triggering the aggregation of essential proteins. In
bacteria, aggregated proteins are rescued by the canonical Hsp70/AAA+(ClpB) bi …

Severe heat stress causes massive loss of essential proteins by aggregation, necessitating
a cellular activity that rescues aggregated proteins. This activity is executed by ATP …

Biofilms are multicellular, often surface‐associated, communities of autonomous cells. Their
formation is the natural mode of growth of up to 80% of microorganisms living on this planet …

Bacteria as unicellular organisms are most directly exposed to changes in environmental
growth conditions like temperature increase. Severe heat stress causes massive protein …

The P1-like phage plasmid (PP) has been widely used as a molecular biology tool, but its
role as an active accessory cargo element is not fully understood. In this study, we provide …

Understanding the dynamics of stress-resistant Escherichia coli (E. coli) across the meat
production and processing continuum is important for tracking sources of such microbes and …

The spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria from humans or livestock is a critical issue.
However, the epidemiology of resistant pathogens across wastewater pathways is poorly …
