Craft D, Korza G, Zhang Y, Frindert J, Jaschke A, Caimano M, et al.
FEMS Microbiol Lett . 2020 Aug; 367(17). PMID: 32821945
Spores of Gram-positive bacteria contain 10s-1000s of different mRNAs. However, Bacillus subtilis spores contain only ∼ 50 mRNAs at > 1 molecule/spore, almost all transcribed only in the developing spore...

Appl Environ Microbiol . 2020 Feb; 86(8). PMID: 32060024
There is a growing need for a highly stable system to allow the production of biologics for diagnoses and therapeutic interventions on demand that could be used in extreme environments....

Taylor W, Camilleri E, Craft D, Korza G, Rocha Granados M, Peterson J, et al.
Appl Environ Microbiol . 2020 Feb; 86(8). PMID: 32033948
This study examined the microbicidal activity of 222-nm UV radiation (UV), which is potentially a safer alternative to the 254-nm UV radiation (UV) that is often used for surface decontamination....

Appl Environ Microbiol . 2019 Jun; 85(17). PMID: 31253678
Two rare earth ions, Tb and Dy, were incorporated into spores of species in ≤5 min at neutral pH to 100 to 200 nmol per mg of dry spores, which...

Camilleri E, Korza G, Green J, Yuan J, Li Y, Caimano M, et al.
J Bacteriol . 2019 May; 201(14). PMID: 31061168
spores incubated on plates for 2 to 98 days at 37°C had identical Ca-dipicolinic acid contents, exhibited identical viability on rich- or poor-medium plates, germinated identically in liquid with all...

Korza G, Camilleri E, Green J, Robinson J, Nagler K, Moeller R, et al.
J Bacteriol . 2019 Feb; 201(9). PMID: 30782632
Large-scale shotgun sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis of mRNAs in dormant spores prepared on plates or in liquid generally found the same ∼46 abundant mRNA species, with >250 mRNAs detected at much...

Korza G, Abini-Agbomson S, Setlow B, Shen A, Setlow P
PLoS One . 2017 Aug; 12(8):e0182656. PMID: 28850573
Dormant spores of Bacillus species lack ATP and NADH and contain notable levels of only a few other common low mol wt energy reserves, including 3-phosphoglyceric acid (3PGA), and glutamic...
