Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Sharmily Khanam's research focuses on the role of calcium in the pathogenesis and virulence of the bacterium *Pseudomonas aeruginosa*. Her work investigates how calcium influences bacterial homeostasis, gene expression, and the production of virulence factors. Khanam has published studies examining the regulatory targets of two-component regulators, such as CarSR, and their impact on calcium-induced virulence. Her research also explores the mechanisms by which calcium affects bacterial resistance to antibiotics like tobramycin and polymyxin B, including the regulation of efflux pumps. Additionally, Khanam has investigated epigenetic regulation of host defense peptide synthesis and the pathogenesis of HCoV-NL63 in human epithelial cells. She has a h-index of 5 with 10 total publications and 182 total citations.
