A family of small proteins links c-di-GMP riboswitch signaling with sporulation in Clostridioides difficile

Adriana Badilla-Lobo, Anne‐Judith Waligora‐Dupriet, Louise Penven, Roland Seifert, César Rodríguez, Frédéric Barbut, Olga A. Soutourina, Peltier Johann

This study identifies a family of small proteins regulated by c-di-GMP riboswitches that mediate sporulation in C. difficile, showing their role in spore formation and developmental regulation.

Phenotypic analysis of various Clostridioides difficile ribotypes reveals consistency among core processes

Merilyn A. Beebe, Daniel Paredes‐Sabja, Larry K. Kociolek, César Rodríguez, Joseph A. Sorg

The paper analyzes phenotypic traits of various C. difficile ribotypes to determine if core biological processes are conserved across clades, finding consistency in growth, sporulation, and bile resistance.
