The success of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is largely attributed to its ability to
physiologically adapt and withstand diverse localized stresses within host …

Natural DNA transformation is a lateral gene transfer mechanism during which bacteria take
up naked DNA from their environment and stably integrate it in their genome. The proteins …

The molecular mechanisms underlying pathogen emergence in humans is a critical but
poorly understood area of microbiologic investigation. Serotype V group B Streptococcus …

Most bacteria contain both eukaryotic-like Ser/Thr kinases (eSTKs) and eukaryotic-like
Ser/Thr phosphatases (eSTPs). Their role in bacterial physiology is not currently well …

Synthesis of capsular polysaccharide (CPS), an important virulence factor of pathogenic
bacteria, is modulated by the CpsBCD phosphoregulatory system in Streptococcus …

We present an overview of how members of the oral microbiota respond to their environment
by regulating gene expression through two-component signal transduction systems (TCSs) …

Protein phosphorylation regulates a large variety of biological processes in all living cells. In
pathogenic bacteria, the study of serine, threonine, and tyrosine (Ser/Thr/Tyr) …

Bacteria sense and respond to their environment through the use of two‐component
regulatory systems. The ability to adapt to a wide range of environmental stresses is directly …
