Investigations into bacterial protein glycosylation continue to progress rapidly. It is now
established that bacteria possess both N-linked and O-linked glycosylation pathways that …

The bacterial flagellum is a complex and dynamic nanomachine that propels bacteria
through liquids. It consists of a basal body, a hook, and a long filament. The flagellar filament …

Respiratory epithelial cells play a crucial role in the inflammatory response during
Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in the lungs of patients with cystic fibrosis. In this study …

A number of different vaccines and several monoclonal antibodies have been developed in
the last decades for active and passive vaccination against the Gram-negative opportunistic …

Many bacterial species are motile by means of flagella. The structure and implantation of
flagella seems related to the specific environments the cells live in. In some cases, the …

We reported previously that Muc1 mucin on the epithelial cell surface is an adhesion site for
Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Lillehoj EP, Hyun SW, Kim BT, Zhang XG, Lee DI, Rowland S …

Whole-genome shotgun sequencing was used to study the sequence variation of three
Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates, two from clonal infections of cystic fibrosis patients and …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an opportunistic respiratory pathogen that infects the majority of
patients with cystic fibrosis, initiates host inflammatory responses through interaction with …

Catheter associated urinary tract infections by P. aeruginosa are related to variety of
complications. Quorum sensing and related circuitry guard its virulence potential. Though P …

Flagella in procaryotes are complex structures requiring the coordinate expression of over
50 genes, including flagellin, the major repeating structural protein. We have previously …
