2. 1. Molecular mechanism of plasmid copy number control in Yersinia

   Author : Tifaine Héchard; Helen Wang; Javier Pizarro-Cerda; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Yersinia pseudotuberculosis; plasmid copy number; T3SS; infection; ddPCR; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

   Abstract : The ability of pathogenic bacteria to cause disease depends on various virulence mechanisms. The three pathogenic species of Yersinia use a type III secretion system (T3SS) to translocate effector proteins into host cells and disrupt the immune system. This T3SS is encoded on a 70kb, low-copy, virulence plasmid. READ MORE

4. 2. Molecular mechanisms of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis for adaptation and establishment of infection in host tissue

   Author : A. K. M. Firoj Mahmud; Maria Fällman; Matthew S. Francis; Javier Pizarro-Cerda; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; RpoN; T3SS; RNA-Seq; Biofilm; Transcription; Yersinia; Data analysis; ChIP-Seq; biology; biologi;

   Abstract : Bacterial pathogens can evade the host’s immune defence to adapt and establish an infection within the host. Some even slip into a quiescent state to establish themselves without acutely harming the host. Phylogenetically unrelated bacteria can share similar strategies for the establishment of infection and for persistence. READ MORE
