Bacterial transport and horizontal gene transfer in subsurface: multiple-scale experimental studies
Horizontal gene transfer rapidly changes bacterial genetic repertoire and contributes to bacterial evolution. Natural transformation, one mechanism of horizontal gene transfer, is defined as the process by which bacterial cells successfully take up and incorporate extracellular DNA. The …

Mechanisms of Macrophage Detection and Control of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection
… pathway by the recognition of M. tuberculosis DNA in the cytosol. The DNA sensor recognizing M. tuberculosis DNA and initiating activation of the cytosolic surveillance pathway has yet to be defined. Here we describe a role for the recently characterized DNA sensor cGAS in the detection of M. …

Molecular Studies of Restriction Genes in Enteric Bacteria
<p>Bacterial cells contain various restriction-modification (R-M) systems to protect themselves from incoming foreign DNA. Most bacteria have at least one such system. In this study, the restriction genes and the location of the genes on the chromosome were examined in three enteric bacteria. …

Creating sense from non-sense DNA: de novo genesis and evolutionary history of antifreeze glycoprotein gene in northern cod fishes (gadidae)
… origins of the gadid AFGP. A large-insert DNA bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library for each species was constructed and screened to isolate the AFGP-containing clones. Nine BAC clones of B. saida were selected by fingerprint analyses and sequenced on Roche 454 GS FLX+. Sequence …
