Disease relevance of Bacterial Physiology

 

High impact information on Bacterial Physiology

  • Our results are consistent with the concept that ethanol can serve as a signaling molecule which can affect bacterial physiology and survival [3].
  • These findings indicate that invasion gene expression is coregulated with motility and adherence and provide experimental evidence that the expression of these virulence phenotypes is a subset of the overall regulation of bacterial physiology [4].
  • Use of thymine limitation and thymine starvation to study bacterial physiology and cytology [5].
  • These mutants revealed that the beneficial effect on bacterial physiology and survival was mediated by the ability of the fungus to metabolize the available glucose and consequent effects on the medium's pH [6].
  • The abundance of MICP in L. pneumophila suggests either that L. pneumophila requires high aconitase and perhaps tricarboxylic acid cycle activity or that the bacterium requires large amounts of this protein to serve an additional role in bacterial physiology [7].
 

Associations of Bacterial Physiology with chemical compounds

  • Since sub-MICs of 0.25 and 0.048 microgram/ml are still able to interfere with bacterial physiology, the effective activity of azithromycin, from a pharmacokinetic point of view, could be extended for 3 days beyond the expected period of antimicrobial activity [8].
  • Important processes such as cold signal perception, membrane adaptation, and the modification of the translation apparatus are discussed together with many other cold-relevant aspects of bacterial physiology and first attempts are made to dissect the cold shock stimulon into less complex regulatory subunits [9].
