Abstract:
Clostridioides difficile est une cause majeure de diarrhée nosocomiale. La physiopathologie de C. difficile est régie par des réseaux de régulation complexes, incluant des mécanismes basés sur l'ARN tels que les riboswitches. Les riboswitches, situés dans la région 5' non traduite des ARNm, se lient à des ligands spécifiques, induisant des changements de conformation qui modulent l'expression du gène en aval. Chez C. difficile, 16 riboswitches répondent à la molécule de signalisation c-di-GMP. Le c-di-GMP est un régulateur contrôlant la transition d'un mode de vie planctonique libre à un mode

Abstract:
Bacterial water pollution is a significant problem because it is associated with reduction in the ‘quality’ of water systems with a potential impact on human health. Faecal indicator bacteria (FIB) are usually used to monitor the quality of water, and to indicate the presence of pathogens in water bodies. However, enumeration alone does not enable identification of the precise origin of these pathogens. This study aimed to monitor the quality of bathing water and associated fresh water in and out of the ‘bathing season’ in the UK, and to evaluate the use of microbial source tracking (MST) such
