Galleria mellonella as an infection model for the virulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (2022)
Journal Article
Asai, M., Li, Y., Spiropoulos, J., Cooley, W., Everest, D. J., Kendall, S., Martín, C., Robertson, B. D., Langford, P. R., & Newton, S. M. (2022). Galleria mellonella as an infection model for the virulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. Virulence, https://doi.org/10.1080/21505594.2022.2119657

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), is a leading cause of infectious
disease mortality. Animal infection models have contributed substantially to our understanding of
TB, yet their biological and non-biological limitation... Read More about Galleria mellonella as an infection model for the virulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv.

Defining the genes required for survival of Mycobacterium bovis in the bovine host offers novel insights into the genetic basis of survival of pathogenic mycobacteria (2022)
Journal Article
Gibson, A. J., Stiens, J., Passmore, I. J., Faulkner, V., Miculob, J., Willcocks, S., Coad, M., Berg, S., Werling, D., Wren, B. W., Nobeli, I., Villarreal-Ramos, B., & Kendall, S. L. (2022). Defining the genes required for survival of Mycobacterium bovis in the bovine host offers novel insights into the genetic basis of survival of pathogenic mycobacteria. mBio, https://doi.org/10.1128/mbio.00672-22

Tuberculosis has severe impacts in both humans and animals. Understanding the genetic basis of survival of both Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the human adapted species, and Mycobacterium bovis, the animal adapted species is crucial to deciphering the b...

Probing differences in gene essentiality between the human and animal adapted (2021)
Journal Article
Gibson, A. J., Passmore, I. J., Faulkner, V., Xia, D., Nobeli, I., Stiens, J., Clarke, T. G., Sobkowiak, B., Willcocks, S., Werling, D., Villarreal-Ramos, B., Wren, B. W., & Kendall, S. L. (2021). Probing differences in gene essentiality between the human and animal adapted. Frontiers in Veterinary Science,

Members of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) show distinct host adaptations, preferences and phenotypes despite being >99% identical at the nucleic acid level. Previous studies have explored gene expression changes between the members, ho... Read More about Probing differences in gene essentiality between the human and animal adapted.

Molecular basis for DarT ADP-ribosylation of a DNA base (2021)
Journal Article
Schuller, M., Butler, R., Ariza, A., Tromans-Coia, C., Jankevicius, G., Claridge, T., Kendall, S., Goh, S., Stewart, G., & Ahel, I. (2021). Molecular basis for DarT ADP-ribosylation of a DNA base. Nature, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-021-03825-4

ADP-ribosyltransferases (ARTs) utilise NAD+ to catalyse substrate ADP-ribosylation, thereby regulating cellular pathways or contributing to toxin-mediated pathogenicity of bacteria. Reversible ADP-ribosylation has traditionally been considered a prot... Read More about Molecular basis for DarT ADP-ribosylation of a DNA base.

The Structure of the Transcriptional Repressor KstR in Complex with CoA Thioester Cholesterol Metabolites Sheds Light on the Regulation of Cholesterol Catabolism in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Journal of Biological Chemistry, 291(14), 7256-7266. https://doi.org/10.1074/jbc.M115.707760

Cholesterol can be a major carbon source for Mycobacterium tuberculosis during infection, both at an early stage in the macrophage phagosome and later within the necrotic granuloma. KstR is a highly conserved TetR family transcriptional repressor tha...
