Synthesis and cell-free cloning of DNA libraries using programmable microfluidics (2015)
Journal Article
Ben Yehezkel, T., Rival, A., Raz, O., Cohen, R., Marx, Z., Cámara, M., …Shapiro, E. (2016). Synthesis and cell-free cloning of DNA libraries using programmable microfluidics. Nucleic Acids Research, 44(4), e35. https://doi.org/10.1093/nar/gkv1087

Microfluidics may revolutionize our ability to write synthetic DNA by addressing several fundamental limitations associated with generating novel genetic constructs. Here we report the first de novo synthesis and cell-free cloning of custom DNA libra... Read More about Synthesis and cell-free cloning of DNA libraries using programmable microfluidics.

Clinical utilization of genomics data produced by the international Pseudomonas aeruginosa consortium (2015)
Journal Article
Freschi, L., Jeukens, J., Kukavica-Ibrulj, I., Boyle, B., Dupont, M., Laroche, J., …Levesque, R. C. (in press). Clinical utilization of genomics data produced by the international Pseudomonas aeruginosa consortium. Frontiers in Microbiology, 6(1036), https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2015.01036

The International Pseudomonas aeruginosa Consortium is sequencing over 1000 genomes and building an analysis pipeline for the study of Pseudomonas genome evolution, antibiotic resistance and virulence genes. Metadata, including genomic and phenotypic... Read More about Clinical utilization of genomics data produced by the international Pseudomonas aeruginosa consortium.

Biotic inactivation of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa quinolone signal molecule (2015)
Journal Article
Soh, E. Y., Chhabra, S. R., Halliday, N., Heeb, S., Müller, C., Birmes, F. S., …Williams, P. (2015). Biotic inactivation of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa quinolone signal molecule. Environmental Microbiology, 17(11), https://doi.org/10.1111/1462-2920.12857

In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, quorum sensing (QS) regulates the production of secondary metabolites, many of which are antimicrobials that impact on polymicrobial community composition. Consequently, quenching QS modulates the environmental impact of P.... Read More about Biotic inactivation of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa quinolone signal molecule.

Granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulatory factor enhances the pro-inflammatory response of interferon-?-treated macrophages to pseudomonas aeruginosa infection (2015)
Journal Article
Singh, S., Barr, H. L., Liu, Y., Robins, A., Heeb, S., Williams, P., …Martinez-Pomares, L. (2015). Granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulatory factor enhances the pro-inflammatory response of interferon-γ-treated macrophages to pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. PLoS ONE, 10(2), Article e0117447. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0117447

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that can cause severe infections at compromised epithelial surfaces, such those found in burns, wounds, and in lungs damaged by mechanical ventilation or recurrent infections, particularly in cystic...
