16. Small RNA-mediated Regulation of Gene Expression in Escherichia coli
Abstract : Non-coding RNAs are highly abundant regulators of gene expression in all kingdoms of life that often play important roles in vital cellular functions. In bacteria, small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) usually act post-transcriptionally by regulating mRNAs through base pairing within ribosome binding sites (RBS), thereby inhibiting translation initiation.

18. Studies on cell wall recycling and modification in Gram-negative bacteria
Abstract : The bacterial cell wall is made from peptidoglycan (PG), a heteropolymer which forms a bag-like exoskeleton that envelopes the cell. PG is constantly remodelled during growth and division, and in response to environmental stimuli. READ MORE

19. Molecular mechanisms involved in prokaryotic cycling of labile dissolved organic matter in the sea
Abstract : Roughly half of the global primary production originates from microscopic phytoplankton in marine ecosystems, converting carbon dioxide into organic matter. This organic matter pool consists of a myriad of compounds that fuel heterotrophic bacterioplankton. READ MORE

20. The genetics of antibiotic production and the role of antibiotics in biological control of Erwinia amylovora by Erwinia herbicola
Abstract : Erwinia herbicola is an epiphyte of apple and pear with potential as a biocontrol agent of Erwinia amylovora, which causes fire blight. This research aimed to assess the relative role of antibiotics produced by E. herbicola, Eh318 as a mechanistic basis for biocontrol. READ MORE
