Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of the genomes of two Xanthomonas pathogens with differing host specificities

A.C.R. da Silva, +65 more
TL;DR: The genus Xanthomonas is a diverse and economically important group of bacterial phytopathogens, belonging to the γ-subdivision of the Proteobacteria, and several groups of strain-specific genes are identified and proposed mechanisms that may explain the differing host specificities and pathogenic processes are proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Construction of plasmid-based expression vectors for Bacillus subtilis exhibiting full structural stability.

TL;DR: A series of plasmid-based expression vectors allowing stable intracellular expression of recombinant proteins in Bacillus subtilis strains showed full structural stability and the versatility of these expression vectors was demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacillus subtilis as a tool for vaccine development: from antigen factories to delivery vectors

TL;DR: The status of B. subtilis-based vaccine research, either as protein factories or delivery vectors, and some alternatives for a better use of genetically modified strains are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gut Adhesive Bacillus subtilis Spores as a Platform for Mucosal Delivery of Antigens

TL;DR: The use of gut-colonizing B. subtilis spores as a new platform for the mucosal delivery of vaccine antigens is supported by the use of P1-specific antibodies efficiently inhibited the adhesion of the oral pathogen Streptococcus mutans to abiotic surfaces.
