A novel exopolysaccharide pathway from a freshwater Sphingomonas isolate

A. G. Goetsch, D. Ufearo, G. Keiser, C. Heiss, P. Azadi, D. M. Hershey

The paper identifies a novel exopolysaccharide (EPS) pathway in Sphingomonas sp. LM7, showing it produces a unique linear polymer with 3- and 4-linked glucose, galactose, and glucuronic acid residues.

A cryptic transcription factor regulates Caulobacter adhesin development

M. McLaughlin, D. M. Hershey, L. M. Reyes Ruiz, A. Fiebig, S. Crosson

This paper identifies RtrC, a transcription factor regulated by the adhesion TCS system in Caulobacter crescentus, which represses hfiA to activate holdfast development and influences biofilm formation.

Flagellar perturbations activate adhesion through two distinct pathways in Caulobacter crescentus

D. M. Hershey, A. Fiebig, S. Crosson

This study identifies two distinct pathways by which flagellar perturbations in Caulobacter crescentus enhance adhesion through holdfast production.

Discovering the Molecular Determinants of Phaeobacter inhibens susceptibility to Phaeobacter phage MD18

G. Urtecho, D. E. Campbell, D. M. Hershey, R. J. Whitaker, G. A. O'Toole

This paper identifies Phaeobacter phage MD18, a novel phage infecting Phaeobacter inhibens, and finds that type IV pili serve as receptors for phage adsorption.
