Abstract:: The pathogen Vibrio cholerae uses cations as a primary currency of virulence and environmental persistence, using gradients of those cations to move, acquire nutrients, and control virulence gene expression. An understanding of the overlapping roles of bioenergetics and chemotaxis in the virulence and environmental survival of V. cholerae issues from...

Abstract:: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic human pathogen that infects immunocompromised individuals such as those suffering from burns or the genetic disorder cystic fibrosis. This organism utilizes a cell-cell communication mechanism known as quorum sensing (QS) to coordinate virulence gene expression and biofilm formation. It has three interconnected QS systems, namely...

Abstract:: Tetracycline (Tet)-resistant strains of Chlamydia suis were isolated from swine farms in the Midwest. The isolation of the resistant strains was significant because Tet is an antibiotic used to treat infections by veterinarians and doctors. One of the tetracycline (Tet)-resistant strains, R19, was able to survive in Tet up to...

Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is a cause of Johne's disease (JD) in cattle and other ruminants. MAP infection in the bovine host is not well characterized. It is assumed that crossing the bovine intestinal mucosa is important for MAP to establish infection. MAP's ability to infect bovine epithelial cells...
