Microbiota-derived indole limits Campylobacter jejuni colonization by inhibiting respiration and metabolism

Ritam Sinha, Barsha Bhattarai, Cristina Kraemer Zimpel, Elizabeth N. Ottosen, Rhiannon M. LeVeque, Pallavi Singh, Victor J. DiRita

This study shows that microbiota-derived indole inhibits Campylobacter jejuni colonization by disrupting its respiration and metabolism in an inflamed gut.

Defining the transcriptional adaptation of Staphylococcus aureus to a range of nutritional sulfur supplementation.

Paige J. Kies, Cristina Kraemer Zimpel, Joshua M. Lensmire, McKenna R. Major, Troy A. Burtchett, Michael R. Wischer, Neal D. Hammer

This study defines the S. aureus CymR-dependent and -independent sulfur starvation responses using chemically defined growth conditions and identifies key sulfur sources and their regulatory mechanisms.
