Comparative genomics of DNA-binding transcription factors in archaeal and bacterial organisms Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Archaea represent a diverse phylogenetic group that includes free-living, extremophile, mesophile, symbiont, and opportunistic organisms. These prokaryotic organisms share a high significant similarity with the basal transcriptional machinery of Eukarya, and they share regulatory mechanisms with Bacteria, such as operonic organization and DNA-binding transcription factors (TFs). In this work, we identified the repertoire of TFs in 415 ...
Detection of anorectal and cervicovaginal Chlamydia trachomatis infections following azithromycin treatment: prospective cohort study with multiple time-sequential measures of rRNA, DNA, quantitative load and symptoms Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
BACKGROUND: Determination of Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) treatment success is hampered by current assessment methods, which involve a single post-treatment measurement only. Therefore, we evaluated Ct detection by applying multiple laboratory measures on time-sequential post-treatment samples.
METHODS: A prospective cohort study was established with azithromycin-treated (1000 mg) Ct patients (44 cervicovaginal and 15 anorectal cases). ...
