Characterization of the genomic islands from tetracycline-resistant Chlamydia suis

Creator:

Dugan, Jae

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...

Molecular and genetic assessment of selected antiporters and methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins in Vibrio cholerae

Creator:

Quinn, Matthew J.

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...
