Yersinia pseudotuberculosis doxycycline tolerance strategies include modulating expression of genes involved in cell permeability and tRNA modifications

H. S. Alvarez-Manzo, R. K. Davidson, J. Van Cauwelaert de Wyels, K. L. Cotten, B. Nguyen, Z. Zhu, J. Anthony, T. van Opijnen, K. M. Davis

This study identifies gene expression changes in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis in response to doxycycline, showing that OmpF porin and TusB tRNA modification influence antibiotic tolerance.

NO-stressed Y. pseudotuberculosis have decreased cell division rates in the mouse spleen

B. Liu, R. E. D. Braza, K. L. Cotten, R. K. Davidson, K. M. Davis

The paper develops a fluorescent reporter system to measure bacterial cell division rates in vivo and finds that NO stress reduces division rates in Y. pseudotuberculosis within mouse spleens.
