Life Identification Numbers: A bacterial strain nomenclature approach

Féderica Palma, Mélanie Hennart, Keith A. Jolley…·Sylvain Brisse

The paper proposes the Life Identification Number (LIN) system as a stable, multilevel strain taxonomy for bacterial pathogens based on core genome MLST to improve epidemiological tracking and nomenclature consistency.

Large-scale phenotyping and comparative genomics reveal genetic features of Listeria persistence in epithelial cells

Aurélie Lotoux, Matthieu Bertrand, Pierre-Emmanuel Douarre…·Eliane Milohanic

This study identifies folate biosynthesis as critical for Listeria monocytogenes persistence in epithelial cells by regulating ActA levels and activity, revealing a metabolic pathway that enables vacuolar dormancy.
