Two defence systems eliminate plasmids from seventh pandemic Vibrio cholerae
Melanie Blokesch, David William Adams, Milena Jadwiga Jaskolska
Horizontal gene transfer can trigger rapid shifts in bacterial evolution. Driven by a variety of mobile genetic elements—in particular bacteriophages and plasmids—the ability to share genes within and across species underpins the exceptional adaptability o ...
2022A single nucleotide polymorphism determines constitutive versus inducible type VI secretion in Vibrio cholerae
Melanie Blokesch, Sandrine Stutzmann, Alexis Joseph Proutière, Loriane Bader, Milena Jadwiga Jaskolska
Vibrio cholerae is a well-studied human pathogen that is also a common inhabitant of marine habitats. In both environments, the bacterium is subject to interbacterial competition. A molecular nanomachine that is often involved in such competitive behavior ...

2022QstR-dependent regulation of natural competence and type VI secretion in Vibrio cholerae
Melanie Blokesch, Sandrine Stutzmann, Candice Stoudmann, Milena Jadwiga Jaskolska
During growth on chitinous surfaces in its natural aquatic environment Vibrio cholerae develops natural competence for transformation and kills neighboring non-immune bacteria using a type VI secretion system (T6SS). Activation of these two phenotypes requ ...
