BACILLUS SUBTILIS CELL ENVELOPE STRESS RESPONSES INDUCED BY ANTIBIOTICS AND GENETIC PERTURBATIONS OF MEMBRANE COMPOSITION
Salzberg, Letal Ilana (2008-07-28)Bacteria thrive in many different habitats, and therefore will encounter a multitude of environmental stresses. Survival requires the development of sophisticated response mechanisms that can identify potential threats and ... -
Characterizing the role of central carbon metabolism and cell wall stress responses in Bacillus subtilis cell wall synthesis
Patel, Vaidehi (2018-12-30)The cell wall is an essential organelle for many bacteria since it provides mechanical strength and prevents bacterial cell lysis due to internal turgor pressure. Additionally, the cell wall is the first line of defense ... -
ESSENTIAL PATHWAYS AND GENE REGULATION FOR CELL WALL HOMEOSTASIS IN BACILLUS SUBTILIS
Zhao, Heng (2018-08-30)The cell wall is an essential component of most bacterial cells, and cell wall targeting antibiotics have greatly improved human health and life span. Despite intense research over the last 50 years, we still lack a complete ... -
Novel pathways of regulation of the transcription factor Spx in Bacillus subtilis
Rojas Tapias, Daniel Fernando (2018-12-30)Spx is a transcription factor present in low G+C Gram-positive bacteria, including Bacillus subtilis and several human pathogens. By direct binding to the αCTD domain of the RNA polymerase, Spx modulates the expression of ...
