The flagellar motor proteins, MotA and MotB, form a complex that rotates the flagella by utilizing the proton motive force (PMF) at the bacterial cell membrane. Although PMF affects the susceptibility to aminoglycosides, the effect of flagellar motor

Zinc is an essential metal for cells, but excess amounts are toxic. Other than by regulating the intracellular zinc concentration by zinc uptake or efflux, the mechanisms underlying bacterial resistance to excess zinc are unknown. In the present stud

Staphylococcus aureus RN4220 has been extensively used by staphylococcal researchers as an intermediate strain for genetic manipulation due to its ability to accept foreign DNA. Despite its wide use in laboratories, its complete genome is not availab

Abstract Bacterial and viral respiratory infections can initiate acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Neutrophils and their granule enzymes, including neutrophil elastase, are key mediators of the pathophysiology of acute respir

The mlaA gene encodes a lipoprotein to maintain an outer membrane lipid asymmetry in gram-negative bacteria. Although the role of mlaA in bacterial virulence has been studied in several bacterial species, there are no reports of its role in E. coli v

The molecular mechanisms that allow pathogenic bacteria to infect animals have been intensively studied. On the other hand, the molecular mechanisms by which bacteria acquire virulence functions are not fully understood. In the present study, we expe

Staphylococcus aureus formed bacterial aggregates in the plasma fraction of the hemolymph of silkworm, the larva of Bombyx mori, in a growth-dependent manner. The addition of arabinose or galactose inhibited the formation of S. aureus aggregates in t

Honeybee royal jelly is reported to have body-enlarging effects in holometabolous insects such as the honeybee, fly and silkmoth, but its effect in non-holometabolous insect species has not yet been examined. The present study confirmed the body-enla

Staphylococcus aureus produces phenol-soluble modulins (PSMs), which are amphipathic small peptides with lytic activity against mammalian cells. We previously reported that PSMα1-4 stimulate S. aureus colony spreading, the phenomenon of S. aureus co
