Dubbert S, Klinkert B, Schimiczek M, Wassenaar T, von Bunau R
Eur J Microbiol Immunol (Bp) . 2020 May; 10(1):11-19. PMID: 32363034
Probiotic strain Nissle 1917 (EcN) has a long history of safe use. However, the recently discovered presence of a locus in its genome presumably producing colibactin has questioned its safety,...

Drees S, Klinkert B, Helling S, Beyer D, Marcus K, Narberhaus F, et al.
Mol Microbiol . 2017 Sep; 106(4):635-645. PMID: 28925527
Programmed ribosomal frameshifting (PRF) is a translational anomaly causing the ribosome to shift into an alternative reading frame. PRFs are common in viral genomes, using a single nucleotide sequence to...

Blanka A, Duvel J, Dotsch A, Klinkert B, Abraham W, Kaever V, et al.
Sci Signal . 2015 Apr; 8(372):ra36. PMID: 25872871
Most bacteria can form multicellular communities called biofilms on biotic and abiotic surfaces. This multicellular response to surface contact correlates with an increased resistance to various adverse environmental conditions, including...

Brouwer S, Pustelny C, Ritter C, Klinkert B, Narberhaus F, Haussler S
J Bacteriol . 2014 Sep; 196(23):4163-71. PMID: 25225275
Regulation of gene expression plays a key role in bacterial adaptability to changes in the environment. An integral part of this gene regulatory network is achieved via quorum sensing (QS)...

Cimdins A, Klinkert B, Aschke-Sonnenborn U, Kaiser F, Kortmann J, Narberhaus F
RNA Biol . 2014 Apr; 11(5):594-608. PMID: 24755616
Cyanobacteria constitute a heterogeneous phylum of oxygen-producing, photosynthetic prokaryotes. They are susceptible to various stress conditions like heat, salt, or light stress, all inducing the cyanobacterial heat shock response (HSR)....

Trager C, Alm Rosenblad M, Ziehe D, Garcia-Petit C, Schrader L, Kock K, et al.
Plant Cell . 2013 Jan; 24(12):4819-36. PMID: 23275580
The protein targeting signal recognition particle (SRP) pathway in chloroplasts of higher plants has undergone dramatic evolutionary changes. It disposed of its RNA, which is an essential SRP component in...

Rademacher C, Moser R, Lackmann J, Klinkert B, Narberhaus F, Masepohl B
J Bacteriol . 2012 Jan; 194(8):1849-59. PMID: 22287514
The copper-regulated Rhodobacter capsulatus cutO (multicopper oxidase) gene confers copper tolerance and is carried in the tricistronic orf635-cutO-cutR operon. Transcription of cutO strictly depends on the promoter upstream of orf635,...

Klinkert B, Cimdins A, Gaubig L, Rossmanith J, Aschke-Sonnenborn U, Narberhaus F
J Biotechnol . 2012 Jan; 160(1-2):55-63. PMID: 22285954
Free-living bacteria constantly monitor their ambient temperature. Drastic deviations elicit immediate protective responses known as cold shock or heat shock response. Many mammalian pathogens use temperature surveillance systems to recognize...

Rinnenthal J, Klinkert B, Narberhaus F, Schwalbe H
Nucleic Acids Res . 2011 Jul; 39(18):8258-70. PMID: 21727085
RNA thermometers are translational control elements that regulate the expression of bacterial heat shock and virulence genes. They fold into complex secondary structures that block translation at low temperatures. A...

Rinnenthal J, Klinkert B, Narberhaus F, Schwalbe H
Nucleic Acids Res . 2010 Mar; 38(11):3834-47. PMID: 20211842
In prokaryotes, RNA thermometers regulate a number of heat shock and virulence genes. These temperature sensitive RNA elements are usually located in the 5'-untranslated regions of the regulated genes. They...
