MODELING REORGANIZATION OF PCF10-INDUCED COMPLEX STRUCTURES IN ENTEROCOCCUS FAECALIS UNDER ERYTHROMYCIN TREATMENT
… such as plasmids. When E. faecalis with the pCF10 plasmid forms a biofilm it constructs raised complex structures with variable cellular packing above the rigid base. Under treatment by erythromycin, E. faecalis OG1RF(pCF10) is shown to undertake a remodeling process where aggregated regions …

Characterization of the effects of regulators PrgY and PrgZ on the inducibility of plasmid pCF10 in Enterococcus faecalis
… resistance among this and other species. pCF10 is a well-characterized member of this class of plasmids, and allows for transmission of tetracycline resistance in E. faecalis. The experiments described in this thesis were designed to assess the effects of three genes thought to be …

Single cell analysis of bacterial communication and gene transfer by Enterococcus faecalis
… antibiotic selection. Conjugative plasmid pCF10 encodes tetracycline resistance and transfer between E. faecalis cells is facilitated by cell-to-cell communication. This signaling triggers expression of genes from pCF10 that encode for transfer machinery. The response to signaling is robust …
