A Postbiotic‐Inducing Ganoderma applanatum Polysaccharide Repairs the Intestinal Barrier via a Phocaeicola vulgatus ‐ Tridecylic Acid Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies GAP2, a bioactive polysaccharide fraction derived from Ganoderma applanatum, as a postbiotic inducer that repairs intestinal barrier damage in a gut microbiota‐dependent manner. GAP2 enriches Phocaeicola vulgatus, which degrades GAP2 and promotes tridecylic acid production, triggering Rho/CDC42 signaling and tight‐junction ...

Chemical Inhibition of Pyocyanin Biosynthesis Attenuates Virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Anti‐virulence strategies disarm pathogens rather than killing them directly. A β‐lactone reduces pyocyanin production without affecting growth. Chemical proteomics identified PqsC as the primary target via binding to Cys129. Crystallography revealed the binding mode, and SAR yielded a chloroacetamide inhibitor with improved enzymatic potency and anti ...

Eugenol inhibits quorum sensing and biofilm of toxigenic MRSA strains isolated from food handlers employed in Saudi Arabia

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2017
Food handlers are important component in assessment and maintenance of food quality as they are carriers of food pathogens causing spoilage. Food spoilage is attributed to quorum sensing (QS) controlled development of biofilms.

Noncanonical Peloruside A Biosynthesis by an Uncultivated Verrucomicrobiota Symbiont

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Noncanonical biochemistry of the peloruside PKS characterized in this work, comprising double bond generation by a noncanonical tridomain (blue), acetyl‐CoA recycling (orange), and proofreading systems (purple and yellow). The Z‐double bond is installed by TEB1 through O‐acetylation and acetate elimination. The acyl ligase PelB (AL, orange) selectively

Porcupine‐Quill‐Inspired Shape‐Morphing Biointerfaces Disassemble Biofilms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A porcupine‐spine‐inspired dynamic offensive bio‐interface is developed for active biofilm disassembly. By coupling electrically driven nano‐dagger penetration with light‐triggered ROS generation, the surface overcomes the passive limitations of conventional mechano‐bactericidal topographies, achieving near‐complete biofilm eradication, strong ...

pH‐Driven Two‐Stage Conformational Switching Activates an Acid‐Responsive Chaperone

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
AchC is an ATP‐independent, pH‐responsive chaperone. AchC functions as a molecular switch, sensing pH changes and undergoing a two‐stage conformational transition: C‐terminal extension (colored in yellow) loosening at mild pH 4.0–5.5 and monomerization at strong acidic pH 3.0.

A Chiral Virus‐Like Nanoplatform That Broadly Mediates Antibiotic Delivery to the Brain for Bacterial Meningitis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chiral virus‐mimicking mesoporous silica nanostructures (CVSNs) efficiently transport diverse antibiotics across the blood–brain barrier (BBB) into brain parenchyma and cerebrospinal fluid. By enhancing delivery to microglia and astrocytes, CVSNs improve antibiotic bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy against both Gram‐negative and Gram‐positive ...
