Overview
Maria Hadjifrangiskou (Vanderbilt U. Medical Center) together with all the guest editors listed below and Journal of Molecular Biology are organizing a special issue focused on the connections between commensalism and pathogenesis.
The issue will cover 2 major themes:
- Maria Hadjifrangiskou (Vanderbilt U. Medical Center), Matthew Mulvey (U. of Utah), Julie Bubeck-Wardenburg (Washington U. School of Medicine in Saint Louis) and junior editor John R. Brannon (Vanderbilt U. Medical Center) will co-edit the part which covers the progress in researching the molecular basis of how some microbes can inhabit some niches as commensals and other niches as pathogens.
- Andreas Baumler (U. of California, Davis) and Mariana Byndloss (Vanderbilt U. Medical Center) will co-edit the 2nd part which aims to define known interactions between resident microbiota and pathogens and how these interactions/activities influence infection establishment and progression.
The organizing editor would like to invite the researchers working in the field to join this special collection via a research article. The submissions are now open until December 1st, 2018.
The research article should be in line with JMB’s scope: a molecular mechanistic study having a biological or disease relevance and contributing to the understanding of a significant biological or biochemical mechanism. The work should be of interest to a broad biologically oriented readership of JMB.
