    Abstract : All living cells must perform essential biological processes while monitoring and responding to environmental cues. Bacteria are accessible experimental systems in which to study the function of conserved central processes. READ MORE

  2. 2. The effects of internally expressed Contact-Dependent growth Inhibition (CDI) toxins in bacteria

    Author : Magnus Stårsta; Sanna Koskiniemi; Pierre Genevaux; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Bacteria, both pathogenic and non-pathogenic, have developed multiple forms of competition mechanisms to combat each other including, but not limited to, Contact-Dependent growth Inhibition (CDI) systems, Type VI Secretion Systems and the associated Rearrangement hotspot (Rhs) toxin system. These systems usually confers a great fitness advantage as they allow for precise delivery of toxic molecules into competing bacteria whilst sister cells are protected from auto-inhibition by producing a cognate immunity protein.
