Serratia marcescens is an entomopathogenic bacterium that opportunistically infects a wide range of hosts, including humans. In a model of septic injury, if directly introduced into the body cavity...
Bordetella pertussis TonB, a Bvg-Independent Virulence Determinant
Pradel, Elizabeth, Guiso, Nicole, Menozzi, Franco D., Locht, Camille
In gram-negative bacteria, high-affinity iron uptake requires the TonB/ExbB/ExbD envelope complex to release iron chelates from their specific outer membrane receptors into the periplasm. Based on...
Pradel, Elizabeth, Locht, Camille
A new gene from Bordetella bronchiseptica, bfrZ encoding a putative siderophore receptor, was identified in a Fur-repressor titration assay. A bfrZ null mutant was constructed by allelic exchange....
Pradel, Elizabeth, Guiso, Nicole, Locht, Camille
A Fur titration assay was used to isolate DNA fragments bearing putative Fur binding sites (FBS) from a partial Bordetella bronchiseptica genomic DNA library. A recombinant plasmid bearing a 3.5-kb...
Pradel, Elizabeth, Pagès, Jean-Marie
We identified the genes encoding the AcrA-AcrB-TolC efflux pump in Enterobacter aerogenes and constructed acrAB and tolC mutants from a multidrug-resistant isolate. Both derivatives were more...
The eefABC Multidrug Efflux Pump Operon Is Repressed by H-NS in Enterobacter aerogenes
Masi, Muriel, Pagès, Jean-Marie, Villard, Claude, Pradel, Elizabeth
The Enterobacter aerogenes eefABC locus, which encodes a tripartite efflux pump, was cloned by complementation of an Escherichia coli tolC mutant. E. aerogenes ΔacrA expressing EefABC became less...

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is present in soils and composts, where it can encounter a variety of microorganisms. Some bacteria in these rich environments are innocuous food sources for C....
