The paper identifies HelD as a transcription factor that enhances gene expression in rapidly growing mycobacteria and reduces it in stationary phase, with implications for rifampicin resistance.

This study identifies the C-terminal domain of FhaB as essential for Bordetella pertussis adhesion to ciliated epithelial cells and colonization, suggesting it as a candidate for improved vaccines.

This study identifies two cysteine dioxygenases and a sulfite exporter critical for sulfur homeostasis and virulence in Bordetella pertussis.

This study shows that the Bordetella FhaB protein's microtubule-binding domain is delivered into host cells to promote bacterial colonization by interacting with microtubules in cilia.

This study identifies CrsL as a novel transcription factor in Mycobacterium smegmatis that interacts with CarD and regulates gene expression related to stress adaptation.
