Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is a primary enteric pathogen infecting both
humans and animals. Infection begins with the ingestion of contaminated food or water so …

Most bacterial pathogens have the remarkable ability to flourish in the external environment
and in specialized host niches. This ability requires their metabolism, physiology, and …

The molecular roles of many RNA‐binding proteins in bacterial post‐transcriptional gene
regulation are not well understood. Approaches combining in vivo UV crosslinking with RNA …

The flagellum and the injectisome are two of the most complex and fascinating bacterial
nanomachines. At their core, they share a type III secretion system (T3SS), a transmembrane …

In many γ‐proteobacteria, the conserved GacS/GacA (BarA/UvrY) two‐component system
positively controls the expression of one to five genes specifying small RNAs (sRNAs) that …

The sequence-specific RNA binding protein CsrA is employed by diverse bacteria in the
posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression. Its binding interactions with RNA have …

Salmonella typhimurium causes enteric and systemic disease by invading the intestinal
epithelium of the distal ileum, a process requiring the invasion genes of Salmonella …

In bacteria, two-component systems (TCS) are widely used signal transduction devices
which are engaged in a multitude of gene regulatory systems that respond to changing …

The sensor kinase GacS and the response regulator GacA are members of a two-
component system that is present in a wide variety of Gram-negative bacteria and has been …

The predominant mode of growth of bacteria in the environment is within sessile, matrix-
enclosed communities known as biofilms. Biofilms often complicate chronic and difficult-to …
