RsmW is an iron-responsive 3 UTR derived small regulatory RNA that contributes to biofilm formation and virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Rhishita Chourashi, Amanda G. Oglesby

This study identifies RsmW as an iron-responsive sRNA that enhances biofilm formation and virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa under iron limitation.

The Pseudomonas aeruginosa PrrF sRNAs promote biofilm formation at body temperature

Rhishita Chourashi, Jacob M. Weiner, Tra-My Hoang…·Amanda G. Oglesby

This paper shows that PrrF sRNAs are required for optimal Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation at 37°C but not 25°C, highlighting temperature's role in biofilm physiology.
