pathways.•These structures are called bacterial microcompartments (BMC) or …

In this article, we highlight novel components of foodborne pathogens that influence their
response, physiology, adaptation, and survival in the face of diverse stresses, and …

Listeria monocytogenes is a well-characterized pathogen that represents a major threat to
food safety. In this study, we examine the chromosomal and plasmid transcriptomes of two …

Increasing evidence shows that foodborne pathogens have become both safety and
