Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Wanfeng Guo's research focuses on microbial genetics and biotechnology, specifically investigating bacterial pathogens. Guo has published work examining the role of the Yersinia pestis BipA protein in regulating pesticin and type VI secretion systems, as well as the regulation of Yersinia pestis plasminogen activator protease by the PhoP/PhoQ two-component system. Additionally, Guo has contributed to the development and validation of genetic manipulation systems for the spirochete Borrelia duttonii, a causative agent of tick-borne relapsing fever. Guo collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Jon S. Blevins, Madeleine G. Scott, Kenneth T. Appell, and Daniel E. Voth.
