Weeramange C, Menjivar C, ONeil P, El Qaidi S, Harrison K, Meinhardt S, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2024 May; 300(6):107352. PMID: 38723750
In Escherichia coli, the master transcription regulator catabolite repressor activator (Cra) regulates >100 genes in central metabolism. Cra binding to DNA is allosterically regulated by binding to fructose-1-phosphate (F-1-P), but...

Mol Microbiol . 2021 Nov; 116(6):1433-1448. PMID: 34738268
Chlamydia muridarum actively grows in murine mucosae and is a representative model of human chlamydial genital tract disease. In contrast, C. trachomatis infections in mice are limited and rarely cause...

Smaili F, Tian S, Roy A, Alazmi M, Arold S, Mukherjee S, et al.
Genomics Proteomics Bioinformatics . 2021 Feb; 19(6):998-1011. PMID: 33631427
The number of available protein sequences in public databases is increasing exponentially. However, a significant percentage of these sequences lack functional annotation, which is essential for the understanding of how...

Soules K, LaBrie S, May B, Hefty P
mBio . 2020 Sep; 11(5). PMID: 32900805
bacteria are obligate intracellular organisms with a phylum-defining biphasic developmental cycle that is intrinsically linked to its ability to cause disease. The progression of the chlamydial developmental cycle is regulated...

Dimond Z, Hefty P
Pathog Dis . 2020 Jul; 79(2). PMID: 32639528
Chlamydia suis, a ubiquitous swine pathogen, has the potential for zoonotic transmission to humans and often encodes for resistance to the primary treatment antibiotic, tetracycline. Because of this emerging threat,...

Mol Microbiol . 2019 Oct; 113(1):68-88. PMID: 31637787
Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular bacteria that undergo dynamic morphologic and physiologic conversions upon gaining an access to a eukaryotic cell. These conversions likely require the detection of key...
