A phase-variable mechanism controlling the Campylobacter jejuni FlgR response regulator influences commensalismDavid R Hendrixson
Department of Microbiology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX 75390, USA
Mol Microbiol 61:1646-59. 2006..jejuni that is absent in other Campylobacter species and contribute to reasons why C. jejuni is more frequently found as a commensal organism in poultry and as the cause of disease in humans...
Restoration of flagellar biosynthesis by varied mutational events in Campylobacter jejuniDavid R Hendrixson
Department of Microbiology, The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX, USA
Mol Microbiol 70:519-36. 2008..jejuni and suggests that the bacterium may possess a repertoire of mutational mechanisms to overcome genetic lesions that impair production of virulence and colonization determinants while lacking a normal mismatch repair system...
Analysis of the LIV system of Campylobacter jejuni reveals alternative roles for LivJ and LivK in commensalism beyond branched-chain amino acid transportDeborah A Ribardo

J Bacteriol 193:6233-43. 2011..In contrast to other studies indicating a requirement and utilization of other specific amino acids for colonization, acquisition of branched-chain amino acids does not appear to be a determinant for C. jejuni during commensalism...
Characterization of two putative cytochrome c peroxidases of Campylobacter jejuni involved in promoting commensal colonization of poultryLacey K Bingham-Ramos
University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Department of Microbiology, 5323 Harry Hines Boulevard, Dallas, TX 75390 9048, USA
Infect Immun 76:1105-14. 2008..Our data suggest that DocA and Cjj0382 have characteristics of CCPs but likely perform different physiological functions for the bacterium in colonization that are not related to resisting oxidative stress...
Analysis of the roles of FlgP and FlgQ in flagellar motility of Campylobacter jejuniShawn M Sommerlad
Department of Microbiology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, 5323 Harry Hines Boulevard, Dallas, TX 75390 9048, USA
J Bacteriol 189:179-86. 2007..This study provides insight into features of FlgP and FlgQ, two proteins with previously undefined functions that are required for the larger, multicomponent flagellar system of C. jejuni that is necessary for motility...
Activation of the Campylobacter jejuni FlgSR two-component system is linked to the flagellar export apparatusStephanie N Joslin
University of Texas Southwestern Medical School, Department of Microbiology, 5323 Harry Hines Boulevard, Dallas, TX 75390 9048, USA
J Bacteriol 191:2656-67. 2009..This study indicates that these apparatuses have broader functions beyond flagellar protein secretion, including activation of essential two-component regulatory systems required for expression of sigma(54)-dependent flagellar genes...
Functional analysis of the RdxA and RdxB nitroreductases of Campylobacter jejuni reveals that mutations in rdxA confer metronidazole resistanceDeborah A Ribardo
University of Texas Southwestern Medical School, Department of Microbiology, Dallas, TX 75390 9048, USA

FlhF and its GTPase activity are required for distinct processes in flagellar gene regulation and biosynthesis in Campylobacter jejuniMurat Balaban
Department of Microbiology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, Texas 75390 9048, USA
J Bacteriol 191:6602-11. 2009..jejuni FlhF GTPase are required for distinct steps in flagellar gene expression and biosynthesis. Our findings are likely applicable to many polarly flagellated bacteria that utilize FlhF in flagellar biosynthesis processes...
Analysis of the Campylobacter jejuni FlgR response regulator suggests integration of diverse mechanisms to activate an NtrC-like proteinStephanie N Joslin
University of Texas Southwestern Medical School, Department of Microbiology, Dallas, TX 75390, USA
J Bacteriol 190:2422-33. 2008..Our results demonstrate that FlgR activation mechanisms are unusual among characterized NtrC-like proteins and emphasize that various means are utilized by the NtrC family of proteins to control the transcription of target genes...
