Non-canonical stringent response signaling mediates antimicrobial fatty acid sensitivity in Staphylococcus aureus. Evolution of polyamine resistance in Staphylococcus aureus through modulation of potassium transport. Skin mycobiota-mediated antagonism against Staphylococcus aureus through a modified fatty acid. Adaptation to skin mycobiota promotes antibiotic tolerance in Staphylococcus aureus. Evolution of polyamine resistance in Staphylococcus aureus through modulation of potassium transport. Host Lung Environment Limits Aspergillus fumigatus Germination through an SskA-Dependent Signaling Response. Aspergillus fumigatus Strain-Specific Conidia Lung Persistence Causes an Allergic Broncho-Pulmonary Aspergillosis-Like Disease Phenotype. A Heterogeneously Expressed Gene Family Modulates the Biofilm Architecture and Hypoxic Growth of Aspergillus fumigatus. Is It Time To Kill the Survival Curve? A Case for Disease Progression Factors in Microbial Pathogenesis and Host Defense Research. Hiding in Plain Sight. |
