Fong J, Syed K, Klose K, Yildiz F
Microbiology (Reading)
. 2010 May;
156(Pt 9):2757-2769.
PMID: 20466768
Biofilm formation enhances the survival and persistence of the facultative human pathogen Vibrio cholerae in natural ecosystems and its transmission during seasonal cholera outbreaks. A major component of the V....

Krasteva P, Fong J, Shikuma N, Beyhan S, Navarro M, Yildiz F, et al.
Science
. 2010 Feb;
327(5967):866-8.
PMID: 20150502
Microorganisms can switch from a planktonic, free-swimming life-style to a sessile, colonial state, called a biofilm, which confers resistance to environmental stress. Conversion between the motile and biofilm life-styles has...

Shikuma N, Fong J, Odell L, Perchuk B, Laub M, Yildiz F
J Bacteriol
. 2009 Jun;
191(16):5147-58.
PMID: 19525342
Vibrio cholerae causes the disease cholera and inhabits aquatic environments. One key factor in the environmental survival of V. cholerae is its ability to form matrix-enclosed, surface-associated microbial communities known...

Fong J, Yildiz F
J Bacteriol
. 2008 Aug;
190(20):6646-59.
PMID: 18708497
Vibrio cholerae is a facultative human pathogen. The ability of V. cholerae to form biofilms is crucial for its survival in aquatic habitats between epidemics and is advantageous for host-to-host...

J Biotechnol
. 2008 Apr;
135(2):127-33.
PMID: 18436321
A thermostable alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH-I) isolated from the potential thermophilic ethanologen Geobacillus thermoglucosidasius strain M10EXG has been characterised. Inverse PCR showed that the gene (adhI) was localised with 3-hexulose-6-phosphate synthase...

Fong J, Yildiz F
J Bacteriol
. 2007 Jan;
189(6):2319-30.
PMID: 17220218
Vibrio cholerae, the causative agent of cholera, can undergo phenotypic variation generating rugose and smooth variants. The rugose variant forms corrugated colonies and well-developed biofilms and exhibits increased levels of...

Fong J, Svenson C, Nakasugi K, Leong C, Bowman J, Chen B, et al.
Extremophiles
. 2006 Mar;
10(5):363-72.
PMID: 16532362
In a search for potential ethanologens, waste compost was screened for ethanol-tolerant thermophilic microorganisms. Two thermophilic bacterial strains, M5EXG and M10EXG, with tolerance of 5 and 10% (v/v) ethanol, respectively,...

J Bacteriol
. 2006 Jan;
188(3):1049-59.
PMID: 16428409
Phase variation between smooth and rugose colony variants of Vibrio cholerae is predicted to be important for the pathogen's survival in its natural aquatic ecosystems. The rugose variant forms corrugated...
