RECON gene disruption enhances host resistance to enable genome-wide evaluation of intracellular pathogen fitness during infection.

C. E. Stamm, A. P. McFarland, M. N. Locke, H. Tabakh, Q. Tang, M. K. Thomason, J. J. Woodward

This paper uses a RECON-/- mouse model to perform Tn-seq screening of Listeria monocytogenes in vivo, identifying novel genes critical for bacterial survival and revealing the role of the D-allose operon in pathogenesis.

A genome-wide screen in macrophages identifies PTEN as required for myeloid restriction of Listeria monocytogenes infection

R. C. Glover, N. H. Schwardt, S.-K. E. Leano, M. E. Sanchez, M. K. Thomason, A. J. Olive, M. L. Reniere

This study identifies PTEN as a host factor required for macrophage phagocytosis of Listeria monocytogenes, revealing its role in bacterial adherence and host protection during infection.

Investigating the roles of Listeria monocytogenes peroxidases in growth and virulence

M. R. Cesinger, N. H. Schwardt, C. R. Halsey, M. K. Thomason, M. L. Reniere

This study identifies which peroxidase genes in Listeria monocytogenes are essential for growth and virulence under oxidative stress conditions.

The global redox-responsive transcriptional regulator Rex represses fermentative metabolism and is required for Listeria monocytogenes pathogenesis

C. R. Halsey, M. K. Thomason, R. C. Glover, M. L. Reniere

This study shows that Rex, a redox-responsive regulator in L. monocytogenes, represses fermentative metabolism and is required for bacterial survival in the gallbladder during listeriosis.
