O antigen biogenesis sensitises Escherichia coli K-12 to bile salts, a likely cause for how it lost its O antigen

This study shows that restoring O antigen in E. coli K-12 sensitizes it to bile salts and vancomycin, suggesting bile salts drove the loss of O antigen in K-12 strains.

Cysteine dependent conformation heterogeneity of Shigella flexneri autotransporter IcsA and implications in its function

This paper investigates the role of cysteine residues in Shigella IcsA's conformational changes, showing how they influence adhesin activity and immune evasion.
