This study investigates how cell chaining in a Listeria monocytogenes divIVA mutant affects virulence, finding that it is not the morphology itself but PrfA- and SecA2-dependent processes that are primarily responsible for attenuation.

This study identifies three metabolic pathways that replenish the one-carbon pool in Listeria monocytogenes, supporting its growth and virulence.

This study identifies a pbpB1 mutation causing β-lactam resistance in Listeria monocytogenes isolates and shows its selection during antibiotic treatment.

The paper analyzes genomic data from Listeria monocytogenes isolates in Germany to identify virulent and hypovirulent clones and their epidemiological patterns.

This study identifies GpsB as an activator of PrkA, a PASTA kinase, and shows that ReoM phosphorylation is regulated by growth phase and phosphatase PrpC, with MurA's conformation and interaction with ReoM playing a key role.
