This paper introduces a physical model called TORCphysics that simulates DNA supercoiling-mediated gene expression regulation using genome architecture inputs.

The paper maps DNA methylation and transcriptomes in Salmonella enterica to reveal growth-stage-specific methylation patterns and their regulatory roles.

The paper develops two compatible plasmids for studying sRNA-mediated post-transcriptional regulation in Acinetobacter baumannii and validates new sRNA-mRNA interactions.

This paper identifies Arp, a small RNA that represses pilin translation, thereby inhibiting DNA uptake and twitching motility in A. baumannii.

The paper identifies a small regulatory RNA, Aar, that represses virulence-related genes in A. baumannii through antisense base-pairing, revealing sRNA-mediated gene regulation in this pathogen.

The paper identifies a new sublineage of Salmonella Typhimurium ST313 in Malawi with a gene expression signature and increased fitness compared to its parent lineage.

The paper identifies a non-coding SNP in the pgtE promoter of Salmonella ST313 that increases PgtE expression, contributing to serum resistance and virulence in a chicken model.
