Bile Salts and N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine induce transcription of the vieSAB Operon in Vibrio cholerae El Tor

This study identifies bile salts and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine as inducers of the vieSAB operon in El Tor biotype V. cholerae, revealing its role in adapting to the human host.

Topologically correct synthetic reconstruction of pathogen social behavior found in deep tissue sites

The paper reconstructs microbial social behavior in deep tissue sites using microfluidics-driven microdroplets and NO generation, mimicking spatial regulation observed in tissues.

The genome-wide transcriptional response to varying RpoS levels in Escherichia coli K-12

This study examines how varying RpoS levels affect the transcriptome of E. coli during stationary phase, identifying gene regulation patterns and promoter sensitivity mechanisms.
