The transcriptome profiles of sporulating vs non-sporulating cells, within an isogenic culture were compared. RNA was isolated from endospore containing cells which were separated from non-spore forming cells using buoyant density gradient centrifugation within an isogenic culture (details in Veenin...
Pathogenic bacteria have acquired the ability to resist antibacterial defense mechanisms of the host. Streptococci are common in animal microbiota and include opportunistic pathogens like Group A Streptococcus (GAS) and Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus). While the conserved streptococcal S pro...

Segregation of replicated chromosomes during cell division is an essential process in all organisms. Chromosome segregation is promoted by the action of the DNA-binding ParB protein in the rod-shaped model bacterium Bacillus subtilis. How oval shaped bacteria, such as the human pathogen Streptococcu...
Transcriptome analysis was used to investigate the global stress response of the Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis caused by overproduction of the well-secreted AmyQ α-amylase from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. Analyses of the control and overproducing strains were carried out at the end of ex...
