Abstract Background Staphylococcus aureus , a leading cause of chronic or acute infections, is traditionally considered an extracellular pathogen despite repeated reports of S. aureus internalization...

H-NS Mediates the Silencing of Laterally Acquired Genes in Bacteria (2006)

Sacha Lucchini, Gary Rowley, Martin D. Goldberg, Douglas Hurd, Marcus Harrison

Histone-like nucleoid structuring protein (H-NS) is a modular protein that is associated with the bacterial nucleoid. We used chromatin immunoprecipitation to determine the binding sites of H-NS and...

Comparative Genomics of Streptococcus thermophilus Phage Species Supports a Modular Evolution Theory

Lucchini, Sacha, Desiere, Frank, Brüssow, Harald

The comparative analysis of five completely sequenced Streptococcus thermophilus bacteriophage genomes demonstrated that their diversification was achieved by a combination of DNA recombination...

Polynucleotide phosphorylase is a global regulator of virulence and persistency in Salmonella enterica

Clements, Mark O., Eriksson, Sofia, Thompson, Arthur, Lucchini, Sacha, Hinton, Jay C. D., Normark, Staffan, ...

For many pathogens, the ability to regulate their replication in host cells is a key element in establishing persistency. Here, we identified a single point mutation in the gene for polynucleotide...

Comparative Genomic Indexing Reveals the Phylogenomics of Escherichia coli Pathogens

Anjum, Muna F., Lucchini, Sacha, Thompson, Arthur, Hinton, Jay C. D., Woodward, Martin J.

The Escherichia coli O26 serogroup includes important food-borne pathogens associated with human and animal diarrheal disease. Current typing methods have revealed great genetic heterogeneity within...

Transcriptional Adaptation of Shigella flexneri during Infection of Macrophages and Epithelial Cells: Insights into the Strategies of a Cytosolic Bacterial Pathogen

Lucchini, Sacha, Liu, Hong, Jin, Qi, Hinton, Jay C. D., Yu, Jun

Shigella flexneri, the etiologic agent of bacillary dysentery, invades epithelial cells as well as macrophages and dendritic cells and escapes into the cytosol soon after invasion. Dissection of the...
