The Human Oral Microbiome Database (HOMD) provides an extensive collection of genome sequences from oral bacteria. The sequence information is a static snapshot of the microbial potential of the so far sequenced species. A major challenge is to conne

Streptococcus agalactiae or Group B streptococci (GBS) are a common cause of serious diseases of newborns and adults. GBS pathogenicity largely depends on genes located on the accessory genome including several pathogenicity islands (PAI). The presen

Gram-positive bacteria, lacking an outer membrane and related secretory systems and having a thick peptidoglycan, have developed novel approaches to pathogenesis by acquiring (among others) a unique family of surface proteins, toxins, enzymes, and pr

Control over mRNA stability is an essential part of gene regulation that involves both endo- and exoribonucleases. RNase Y is a recently identified endoribonuclease in Gram-positive bacteria, and an RNase Y ortholog has been identified in Streptococc

The oral biofilm community consists of >800 microbial species, among which Streptococcus mutans is considered a primary pathogen for dental caries. The genomic island TnSmu2 of S. mutans comprises >2% of the genome. In this study, we demonstrate that

In this investigation, we identify the CodY protein from Streptococcus pyogenes as a pleiotropic transcription regulator with global features. The notion that acquisition of nutrients by this polyauxotrophic organism is the primary event occurring du

Group B streptococcus (GBS) is part of the vaginal flora of many women and is an important cause of invasive bacterial disease in newborns. In spite of extensive research on this organism in recent years, little is known about the specific virulence

The complete genome sequence of nine different strains of Streptococcus pyogenes have now been determined, including serotype M1 and M3 (two strains each), M5, M6, M18, M28, and M49. Seven of these strains are included in the class I type, known to b

In this report, we identify the CodY protein and the product of the activated RelA protein, (p)ppGpp, from Streptococcus pyogenes as pleiotropic regulatory factors that direct nutritional status-dependent transcriptional expression of specific regula

Are gut microbes man9s best friend? They certainly seem to be, as the bacterial flora of the human gut benefit us by breaking down the complex carbohydrates in our food. However, sometimes certain bacterial strains acquire new traits, including antib
