Characterization of a Staphylococcus aureus multi-enzyme complex involved in the phenotypic switch and host-pathogen interactions
RNA homeostasis is maintained by synchronizing RNA synthesis and RNA degradation. These processes are synchronized to growth conditions and environmental stimuli, thus enabling bacterial survival in diverse environmental ... -
Host-Pathogen Interaction Between Staphylococcus Aureus And Murine Macrophages
(2013-09-04)Chapter 1: Introductionn Staphylococci are gram positive rotund bacteria that grow in clusters; and hence get their name. The genus of Staphylococcus comprises of over 30 species of which S. epidermidis and S.aureus are ... -
Structural and Functional Investigation of a Multi-drug Efflux Transporter QacA
The emergence of multi-drug resistance in bacteria is a global health care challenge. One of the effective means of gaining antimicrobial resistance, among superbugs, is through expression of efflux pumps. Quaternary ... -
Structural And Functional Studies On Staphylococcus Aureus Enzymes Involved In L-Lysine Biosynthesis
(2011-05-24)Proteins associated with metabolic pathways have received considerable attention in an effort to understand the molecular details of the complex reactions catalyzed in vivo. Enzymes belonging to these pathways have also ... -
Structural and mechanistic studies on RNase J paralogs and associated multi-enzyme complexes in Staphylococcus aureus
The Staphylococcus aureus RNome, which includes both coding and non-coding RNAs, has a direct bearing on the virulence of this pathogen as it influences the ability to adapt to diverse environments within the host. Multiple ... -
Structural Studies on the Intracellular Steps that Govern the Staphylococcus aureus Quorum Sensing System.
Quorum sensing in bacteria has been extensively examined over the past two decades. These studies suggest that the molecular mechanism that governs quorum sensing incorporates niche-specific, environmentally sensitive ...
