Vaginal Microbiota Profile in first-trimester miscarriages cases.

Due to its rising prevalence, first-trimester miscarriage is getting more attention. Abortion etiology and pathology, especially in non-pathological cases, are unknown. In this study, 435 vaginal swabs were collected from aborted women in Maternity Teaching Hospitals in Erbil and Shahid Dr.

Transcriptional analysis of the cell division-related ssg genes in Streptomyces coelicolor reveals direct control of ssgR by AtrA.

SsgA-like proteins are a family of actinomycete-specific regulatory proteins that control cell division and spore maturation in streptomycetes. SsgA and SsgB together activate sporulation-specific cell division by controlling the localization of FtsZ. Here we report the identification of novel regulators that control the transcription of the ssgA-like genes.

A comparison of key aspects of gene regulation in Streptomyces coelicolor and Escherichia coli using nucleotide-resolution transcription maps produced in parallel by global and differential RNA sequencing.

Streptomyces coelicolor is a model for studying bacteria renowned as the foremost source of natural products used clinically. Post-genomic studies have revealed complex patterns of gene expression and links to growth, morphological development and individual genes. However, the underlying regulation remains largely obscure, but undoubtedly involves steps after transcription initiation.
