Bacterial persistence has been extensively studied as a possible explanation for strain survival under stress; however, in Enterococcus spp., this ability is still an understudied phenomenon. In this study, 40 Enterococcus spp. isolates of ...
The Role of the RGD Motif of the IdeC Protein in Streptococcus canis in Adhesion and Invasion [0.03%]
Saoirse Walsh,Alba Garay-Álvarez,Manfred Rohde et al.
Saoirse Walsh et al.
Streptococcus canis is an opportunistic pathogen that colonises the mucosal surfaces and skin of its host. Though predominantly a veterinary pathogen affecting cats and dogs, S. canis has also been identified as the causative agent in sever...
Endophytic Fungi as a Promising Source of Bioactive Compounds for Wound Healing: A Systematic Review [0.03%]
Marina Borges Guimarães,Carolina Castello Branco Rangel Helbourn,Gustavo Oliveira Gonçalves et al.
Marina Borges Guimarães et al.
Endophytic fungi (EF) inhabit internal plant tissue in a mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship with their host plant. EF synthesizes metabolites that are structurally similar or identical to those found in their host plants, which incl...
Functional Identification of AcsR, a MarR Family Transcriptional Regulator Involved in the Regulation of Aromatic Compound-Degrading Genes in Corynebacterium glutamicum [0.03%]
Qimiao Shi,Runge Xu,Meng Shao et al.
Qimiao Shi et al.
The MarR (multiple antibiotic resistance regulator) family regulators, which are widely conserved across various organisms, play pivotal roles in metabolism, stress response mechanisms, and virulence factor production. However, the regulato...
