Sources and survival of Listeria monocytogenes on fresh, leafy produce (2018)
Journal Article
on fresh, leafy produce. Journal of Applied Microbiology, 125(4), 930-942. https://doi.org/10.1111/jam.14025

Listeria monocytogenes in an intracellular human pathogen which enters the body through contaminated food stuffs and is known to contaminate fresh leafy produce such as spinach, lettuce and rocket. Routinely, fresh leafy produce is grown and processe... Read More about Sources and survival of Listeria monocytogenes on fresh, leafy produce.

Listeria monocytogenes (2017)
Book Chapter
Rees, C., Doyle, L., & Taylor, C. (2017). Listeria monocytogenes. In Foodborne Diseases (253-276). (3rd). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/b978-0-12-385007-2.00012-7

Listeria monocytogenes was first described in 1923. Before 1982, L. monocytogenes was recognized as a cause of abortions and encephalitis in many animals (particularly cattle and sheep) and was thought to be associated with contaminated animal feed o... Read More about Listeria monocytogenes.

Non-contact injury incidence and warm-up observation in hockey in Scotland (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Johnston, T., Brown, S., Kaliarntas, K., & Taylor, C. (2016, August). Non-contact injury incidence and warm-up observation in hockey in Scotland. Poster presented at International Sports Science + Sports Medicine Conference 2016

Noncontact injuries occur during manoeuvres such as landing, accelerating and the side-cut. This investigation has assessed the prevalence and manoeuvres associated with noncontact injuries and the current warm up practice. An online questionnaire wa...

Differential expression from two iron-responsive promoters in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium reveals the presence of iron in macrophage-phagosomes (2008)
Journal Article
Taylor, C. M., Osman, D., & Cavet, J. S. (2009). Differential expression from two iron-responsive promoters in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium reveals the presence of iron in macrophage-phagosomes. Microbial Pathogenesis, 46(2), 114-118. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.micpath.2008.11.001

The metal status of macrophage-phagosomes during Salmonella infection is largely unknown. In this study, we have precisely calibrated the metal-specificities of two metal-responsive promoters, PiroBCDE and PsodB, from Salmonella enterica serovar Typh...

Characterization of relA and codY mutants of Listeria monocytogenes: identification of the CodY regulon and its role in virulence (2007)
Journal Article
Bennett, H. J., Pearce, D. M., Glenn, S., Taylor, C. M., Kuhn, M., Sonenshein, A. L., Andrew, P. W., & Roberts, I. S. (2007). Characterization of relA and codY mutants of Listeria monocytogenes: identification of the CodY regulon and its role in virulence. Molecular Microbiology, 63(5), 1453-1467. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2958.2007.05597.x

Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive intracellular parasite and the causative organism of human listeriosis. In this article we demonstrate that L. monocytogenes encodes a functional member of the CodY family of global regulatory proteins that i...

Listeria monocytogenes relA and hpt Mutants Are Impaired in Surface-Attached Growth and Virulence (2002)
Journal Article
Taylor, C. M., Beresford, M., Epton, H. A. S., Sigee, D. C., Shama, G., Andrew, P. W., & Roberts, I. S. (2002). Listeria monocytogenes relA and hpt Mutants Are Impaired in Surface-Attached Growth and Virulence. Journal of Bacteriology, 184(3), 621-628. https://doi.org/10.1128/JB.184.3.621-628.2002

We describe here the identification and characterization of two Listeria monocytogenes (Tn917-LTV3) relA and hpt transposon insertion mutants that were impaired in growth after attachment to a model surface. Both mutants were unable to accumulate (p)... Read More about Listeria monocytogenes relA and hpt Mutants Are Impaired in Surface-Attached Growth and Virulence.
