White R, Miyata S, Papa E, Spooner E, Gounaris K, Selkirk M, et al.
PLoS Negl Trop Dis . 2011 Oct; 5(10):e1340. PMID: 22013496
Background: Trichinella spiralis is a zoonotic parasitic nematode that causes trichinellosis, a disease that has been identified on all continents except Antarctica. During chronic infection, T. spiralis larvae infect skeletal...

Miyata S, Begun J, Troemel E, Ausubel F
Genetics . 2008 Feb; 178(2):903-18. PMID: 18245330
To further understand how the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans defends itself against pathogen attack, we analyzed enhanced pathogen resistance (epr) mutants obtained from a forward genetic screen. We also examined several...

Lee D, Urbach J, Wu G, Liberati N, Feinbaum R, Miyata S, et al.
Genome Biol . 2006 Oct; 7(10):R90. PMID: 17038190
Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a ubiquitous environmental bacterium and an important opportunistic human pathogen. Generally, the acquisition of genes in the form of pathogenicity islands distinguishes pathogenic isolates from nonpathogens....

Kulasakara H, Lee V, Brencic A, Liberati N, Urbach J, Miyata S, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2006 Feb; 103(8):2839-44. PMID: 16477007
The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is responsible for systemic infections in immunocompromised individuals and chronic respiratory disease in patients with cystic fibrosis. Cyclic nucleotides are known to play a variety...

Liberati N, Urbach J, Miyata S, Lee D, Drenkard E, Wu G, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2006 Feb; 103(8):2833-8. PMID: 16477005
Random transposon insertion libraries have proven invaluable in studying bacterial genomes. Libraries that approach saturation must be large, with multiple insertions per gene, making comprehensive genome-wide scanning difficult. To facilitate...

Miyata S, Casey M, Frank D, Ausubel F, Drenkard E
Infect Immun . 2003 Apr; 71(5):2404-13. PMID: 12704110
Nonvertebrate model hosts represent valuable tools for the study of host-pathogen interactions because they facilitate the identification of bacterial virulence factors and allow the discovery of novel components involved in...
