Timing is everything – impact of naturally occurring Staphylococcus aureus AgrC cytoplasmic domain adaptive mutations on auto-induction (2019)
Journal Article
Sloan, T. J., Murray, E., Yokoyama, M., Massey, R. C., Chan, W. C., Bonev, B., & Williams, P. (2019). Timing is everything – impact of naturally occurring Staphylococcus aureus AgrC cytoplasmic domain adaptive mutations on auto-induction. Journal of Bacteriology, 201(20), Article e00409-19. https://doi.org/10.1128/jb.00409-19

Mutations in the polymorphic Staphylococcus aureus agr locus responsible for quorum sensing (QS) dependent virulence gene regulation occur frequently during host adaptation. In two genomically closely related S. aureus clinical isolates exhibiting ma...

Prevalence of feline lungworm Aelurostrongylus abstrusus in England (2019)
Journal Article
Elsheikha, H. M., Wright, I., Wang, B., & Schaper, R. (2019). Prevalence of feline lungworm Aelurostrongylus abstrusus in England. Veterinary parasitology (Amsterdam), 16, 100271. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vprsr.2019.100271

Infection of cats with lungworm Aelurostrongylus abstrusus has recentlbeen documented in the UK. Here, we aimed to study the prevalence of A. abstrusus in fecal samples from cats across England. A total of 950 fecal samples were collected from cats t... Read More about Prevalence of feline lungworm Aelurostrongylus abstrusus in England.
