Intra-ocular Predation of Fluoroquinolone-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Serratia marcescens by Predatory Bacteria

E. G. Romanowski, K. M. Brothers, R. C. Calvario, N. A. Stella, T. Kim, M. Elsayed, D. E. Kadouri, R. M. Q. Shanks

This study evaluates the ability of predatory bacteria to limit intraocular growth of resistant Gram-negative bacteria in a rabbit model, finding that active predation, not antimicrobial effects, is responsible for inhibiting Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

IgaA protein, GumB, has a global impact on the transcriptome and surface proteome of Serratia marcescens

N. A. Stella, E. G. Romanowski, K. M. Brothers, R. M. Shanks

This study shows that the GumB protein regulates the Rcs stress response system in S. marcescens, affecting its transcriptome and surface proteome, which impacts virulence factors.

Generation of Xylose-inducible promoter tools for Pseudomonas species and their use in implicating a role for the Type II secretion system protein XcpQ in inhibition of corneal epithelial wound closure

J. D. Callaghan, N. A. Stella, K. M. Lehner, B. R. Treat, K. M. Brothers, A. J. St. Leger, R. M. Shanks

This paper develops a xylose-inducible promoter system for Pseudomonas species and uses it to show XcpQ's role in inhibiting corneal wound closure.
