The ColR/S two-component system is a conserved determinant of host association across Pseudomonas species

C. L. Wiesmann, Y. Zhang, M. Alford, D. Thoms, M. Dostert, A. Wilson, D. Pletzer, R. E. W. Hancock, C. H. Haney

This study shows the ColR/S two-component system is conserved in Pseudomonas species and required for host association, but its regulon diverges between strains with different lifestyles.

The stringent stress response controls proteases and global regulators under optimal growth conditions in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

D. Pletzer, T. M. Blimkie, H. Wolfmeier, Y. Li, A. Baghela, A. H. Lee, R. Falsafi, R. E. W. Hancock

This study shows that the stringent stress response, mediated by ppGpp, regulates proteases and global regulators in Pseudomonas aeruginosa under optimal growth conditions, revealing its broad physiological role.
