Almohamad S, Somarajan S, Singh K, Nallapareddy S, Murray B
FEMS Microbiol Lett . 2014 Mar; 353(2):151-6. PMID: 24606170
Enterococcus faecium, a major cause of nosocomial infections, is often isolated from conditions where biofilm is considered to be important in the establishment of infections. We investigated biofilm formation among...

Chowdhury S, Nallapareddy S, Arias C, Murray B
J Clin Microbiol . 2014 Jan; 52(2):549-56. PMID: 24478487
Eighty-one endocarditis-derived Enterococcus faecalis isolates that were collected from individual patients in the United States between 1974 and 2004 were sequence typed and analyzed for the presence of various genes,...

Sillanpaa J, Chang C, Singh K, Montealegre M, Nallapareddy S, Harvey B, et al.
PLoS One . 2013 Jul; 8(7):e68813. PMID: 23874774
The endocarditis and biofilm-associated pilus (Ebp) operon is a component of the core genome of Enterococcus faecalis that has been shown to be important for biofilm formation, adherence to host...

Cohen A, Roh J, Nallapareddy S, Hook M, Murray B
FEMS Microbiol Lett . 2013 Apr; 344(1):18-24. PMID: 23551253
Expression of adhesin to collagen of Enterococcus faecalis (ace), a known virulence factor, is increased by environmental signals such as the presence of serum, high temperature, and bile salts. Currently,...

Qin X, Galloway-Pena J, Sillanpaa J, Roh J, Nallapareddy S, Chowdhury S, et al.
BMC Microbiol . 2012 Jul; 12:135. PMID: 22769602
Background: Enterococci are among the leading causes of hospital-acquired infections in the United States and Europe, with Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium being the two most common species isolated from...

Pinkston K, Gao P, Diaz-Garcia D, Sillanpaa J, Nallapareddy S, Murray B, et al.
J Bacteriol . 2011 Jun; 193(17):4317-25. PMID: 21705589
Ace, a known virulence factor and the first identified microbial surface component recognizing adhesive matrix molecule (MSCRAMM) of Enterococcus faecalisis associated with host cell adherence and endocarditis. The Fsr quorum-sensing...

Nallapareddy S, Singh K, Sillanpaa J, Zhao M, Murray B
Infect Immun . 2011 Apr; 79(7):2901-10. PMID: 21505082
Previous studies have demonstrated that the ebp operon and the ace gene of Enterococcus faecalis, encoding endocarditis- and biofilm-associated pili and an adhesin to collagen of E. faecalis, respectively, are...

Nallapareddy S, Sillanpaa J, Mitchell J, Singh K, Chowdhury S, Weinstock G, et al.
Infect Immun . 2011 Apr; 79(7):2911-20. PMID: 21502588
Ebp are endocarditis- and biofilm-associated pili of Enterococcus faecalis that are also important in experimental urinary tract infections (UTIs). Our analyses, using available genomes, found that the ebp locus is...

Choudhury T, Singh K, Sillanpaa J, Nallapareddy S, Murray B
J Infect Dis . 2011 Apr; 203(8):1147-54. PMID: 21451003
General stress proteins, Gls24 and GlsB, were previously shown to be involved in bile salts resistance of Enterococcus faecalis and in virulence. Here, we identified 2 gene clusters in Enterococcus...

Gao P, Pinkston K, Nallapareddy S, van Hoof A, Murray B, Harvey B
J Bacteriol . 2010 Aug; 192(20):5489-98. PMID: 20729365
Pili in Gram-positive bacteria play a major role in the colonization of host tissue and in the development of biofilms. They are promising candidates for vaccines or drug targets since...
