Fast and visual detection of nucleic acids using a one-step RPA-CRISPR detection (ORCD) system unrestricted by the PAM

However, most Cas12a nucleic acid detection methods are limited by a PAM sequence requirement. Moreover, preamplification and Cas12a cleavage are separate. Here, we developed a one-step RPA-CRISPR detection (ORCD) system unrestricted by the PAM sequence with high sensitivity and specificity that offers one-tube, rapid, and visually observable detection of nucleic acids. In this system, Cas12a detection and RPA amplification are performed simultaneously, without separate...

Generating enhanced mucosal immunity against Bordetella pertussis: current challenges and new directions
Bordetella pertussis (Bp) is the highly transmissible etiologic agent of pertussis, a severe respiratory disease that causes particularly high morbidity and mortality in infants and young children. Commonly known as “whooping cough,” pertussis is one of the least controlled vaccine-preventable diseases worldwide with several countries experiencing recent periods of resurgence despite broad immunization coverage. While current acellular vaccines prevent severe disease in most cases, the immunity they confer wanes rapidly and does not prevent sub clinical infection or transmission of the bacterium to new and vulnerable h...

Modeling the Effect of Oxidative Stress on Bordetella pertussis Fermentations
AbstractA mathematical model is proposed forBordetella pertussis with the main goal to better understand and describe the relation between cell growth, oxidative stress and NADPH levels under different oxidative conditions. The model is validated with flask experiments conducted under different conditions of oxidative stress induced by high initial glutamate concentrations, low initial inoculum and secondary culturing following exposure to starvation. The model exhibited good accuracy when calibrated and validated for the different experimental conditions. From comparisons of model predictions to data with different model ...

Deep longitudinal multi-omics analysis of Bordetella pertussis cultivated in bioreactors highlights medium starvations and transitory metabolisms, associated to vaccine antigen biosynthesis variations and global virulence regulation
Bordetella pertussis is the bacterial causative agent of whooping cough, a serious respiratory illness. An extensive knowledge on its virulence regulation and metabolism is a key factor to ensure pertussis vaccine manufacturing process robustness. The aim of this study was to refine our comprehension of B. pertussis physiology during in vitro cultures in bioreactors. A longitudinal multi-omics analysis was carried out over 26 h small-scale cultures of B. pertussis. Cultures were performed in batch mode and under culture conditions intending to mimic industrial processes. Putative cysteine and proline starvations were, resp...

Novel murine model reveals an early role for pertussis toxin in disrupting neonatal immunity to Bordetella pertussis
The increased susceptibility of neonates to specific pathogens has previously been attributed to an underdeveloped immune system. More recent data suggest neonates have effective protection against most pathogens but are particularly susceptible to those that target immune functions specific to neonates. Bordetella pertussis (Bp), the causative agent of “whooping cough”, causes more serious disease in infants attributed to its production of pertussis toxin (PTx), although the neonate-specific immune functions it targets remain unknown. Problematically, the rapid development of adult immunity in mice has confounded our ...
