ArgR regulates motility and virulence through positive control of flagellar genes and inhibition of diguanylate cyclase expression in Aeromonas veronii by Zucheng Wang, Yanqiong Tang, Hong Li, Juanjuan Li, Xue Chi, Xiang Ma, Zhu Liu

“…Thus, ArgR coordinated two distinct pathways to regulate flagellar assembly and motility, ultimately affecting adhesion, virulence, and biofilm formation. In summary, this study elucidates the molecular mechanism by which ArgR regulates motility, highlighting its crucial role in bacterial virulence and offering new insights for the prevention and control of pathogenic bacteria.…”

Genomic Changes in an Attenuated ZB Strain of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Serotype Asia1 and Comparison with Its Virulent Parental Strain by Aiguo Xin, Mingwang Zhu, Zhenqi Peng, Qi Hu, Chenhong Shi, Defang Liao, Jihua Wang, Huachun Li

“…To understand the genetic changes of attenuation, we compared the entire genomes of three different rabbit-passaged attenuated ZB strains (ZB/CHA/58(att), ZBRF168, and ZBRF188) and their virulent parental strains (ZBCF22 and YNBS/58). The results showed that attenuation may be brought about by 28 common amino acid substitutions in the coding region, with one nucleotide point mutation in the 5′-untranslated region (5′-UTR) and another one in the 3′-UTR. …”
