Journal ArticleDOI
Biofilm Formation and Dispersal under the Influence of the Global Regulator CsrA of Escherichia coli
Debra W. Jackson,Kazushi Suzuki,Lawrence X. Oakford,Jerry W. Simecka,Mark E. Hart,Tony Romeo +5 more
TL;DR: It is established that the RNA binding global regulatory protein CsrA (carbon storage regulator) of Escherichia coli K-12 serves as both a repressor of biofilm formation and an activator ofBiofilm dispersal under a variety of culture conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel sRNA component of the carbon storage regulatory system of Escherichia coli.
Thomas Weilbacher,Kazushi Suzuki,Ashok Kumar Dubey,Xin Wang,Seshigirao Gudapaty,Igor Y. Morozov,Carol S. Baker,Dimitris Georgellis,Paul Babitzke,Tony Romeo +9 more
TL;DR: Small untranslated RNAs (sRNAs) perform a variety of important functions in bacteria, and the discovery of CsrC is intriguing, in that a similar sRNA, CsrB, performs essentially the same function.
Journal ArticleDOI
CsrA post‐transcriptionally represses pgaABCD, responsible for synthesis of a biofilm polysaccharide adhesin of Escherichia coli
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that the pgaABCD transcript, required for the synthesis of the polysaccharide adhesin PGA of Escherichia coli, is the key target of biofilm regulation by CsrA.
Journal ArticleDOI
CsrA regulates glycogen biosynthesis by preventing translation of glgC in Escherichia coli.
TL;DR: It is established that bound CsrA inhibits initiation of glgC translation, thereby reducing glycogen biosynthesis, and probably contributes to destabilization of theglgC transcript that was observed previously.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulatory Circuitry of the CsrA/CsrB and BarA/UvrY Systems of Escherichia coli
Kazushi Suzuki,Xin Wang,Thomas Weilbacher,Anna Karin Pernestig,Öjar Melefors,Dimitris Georgellis,Paul Babitzke,Tony Romeo +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that uvrY resides downstream from csrA in a signaling pathway for csrB and that CsrA stimulates UvrY-dependent activation of cSRB expression by BarA-dependent and -independent mechanisms.
