Stabilizing genetically unstable simple sequence repeats in the Campylobacter jejuni genome by multiplex genome editing: a reliable approach for delineating multiple phase-variable genes

Shouji Yamamoto, Sunao Iyoda, Makoto Ohnishi

This paper develops MuGENT-SSR, a method to stabilize phase-variable genes in C. jejuni by editing multiple SSR tracts, enabling stable genetic and phenotypic studies.

Antimicrobial exposure in sexual networks drives divergent evolution in modern gonococci

Leonor Sánchez-Busó, Daniel Golparian, Jukka Corander, Yonatan H. Grad, Makoto Ohnishi, Rebecca Flemming, Julian Parkhill, Stephen D. Bentley, Magnus Unemo, Simon R. Harris

This study traces the evolutionary divergence of Neisseria gonorrhoeae by analyzing global isolates, linking antimicrobial use to the emergence of two distinct lineages with different resistance strategies.
