operon

The pel operon codes for glucose-rich EPS during biofilm formation process.

Presence of the ica operon in clinical isolates of Staphylococcus epidermidis and its role in biofilm production.

In Gram-negative bacteria, the PhoQ/PhoP two-component system activates expression of the pmrCAB operon, which encodes proteins responsible for cationic modifications of LPS [18].

The tetrathionate resistance genes were unique to pY546, while the chromosome of S43 carried the ter operon, but the MEM chromosome did not (Figure 4).

Biofilm formation has been associated with the presence of the ica operon that encodes for the production of a polysaccharide intercellular adhesin (PIA).

However, this insertion mapped to a different chromosomal location in a region encoding a defective lambdoid prophage inserted between the molybdate ABC transporter operon (modABC) and the biotin biosynthesis operon (bioABCDF) (bp 1662140-1716472).

But their juxtaposition would produce a critical breakthrough for our understanding of life'-namely, the concept of an 'operon,' a cluster of genes whose expression is regulated by an adjacent regulatory gene.

HawkPoint Technologies, formerly Operon Systems, has launched a new comprehensive resource planning (MRP II) software program that helps manufacturers within the converting and label industry streamline their current workflow process from receiving to shipping.

aureus with vancomycin minimum inhibitory concentration [MIC] >16 [micro]g/mL) arises when vancomycin resistance genes (e.g., the vanA operon, which codes for enzymes that result in modification or elimination of the vancomycin binding site) from vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are transferred to S.
