1. Genetics and Growth Regulation in Salmonella enterica
Sammanfattning : Most free-living bacteria will encounter different environments and it is therefore critical to be able to rapidly adjust to new growth conditions in order to be competitively successful. Responding to changes requires efficient gene regulation in terms of transcription, RNA stability, translation and post-translational modifications. LÄS MER
2. Growth in Aging Colonies : The Importance of Being Different
Sammanfattning : The accumulation of rifampicin resistant (RifR) mutants in aging bacterial colonies has previously been attributed to stress-induced mutagenesis. Mutations giving rise to RifR are located in the rpoB gene, coding for the β subunit of RNA polymerase, RpoB. LÄS MER
3. Antibiotic susceptibility and resistance in Neisseria meningitidis : phenotypic and genotypic characteristics
Sammanfattning : Neisseria meningitidis, also known as the meningococcus, is a globally spread obligate human bacterium causing meningitis and/or septicaemia. It is responsible for epidemics in both developed and developing countries. LÄS MER
4. Molecular characterisation of antibiotic resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Sammanfattning : To counteract the emergence of multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) a number of approaches have been proposed, amongst which are the sound usage of the present anti-TB drugs and the development of prompt and specific tools for the diagnosis of resistance. To examine the role of drugs in the treatment of resistant TB, we investigated the general crossresistance between kanamycin and amikacin, which has been reported in numerous studies. LÄS MER
5. Molecular detection and characterization of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Sammanfattning : Tuberculosis (TB) is an ancient disease, but not a disease of the past. Despite the declaration of TB as a global emergency by the World Health Organization in 1993 the worldwide problem of TB has worsened. LÄS MER
