Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Evolutionary dynamics of the chloroplast genome in Daphne (Thymelaeaceae): comparative analysis with related genera and insights into phylogenetics

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Comparative analysis of chloroplast genomes from 14 genera of Thymelaeaceae revealed variation in gene content, ranging from 128 to 142 genes, primarily influenced by IR expansion/contraction events and pseudogenization of ndhF, ndhI, and ndhG. Two large inversions were detected within the large single‐copy region, including a synapomorphic inversion ...

Single-cell phenotypic profiling and backtracing exposes and predicts clinically relevant subpopulations in isogenic Staphylococcus aureus communities

Communications Biology
Isogenic bacterial cell populations are phenotypically heterogenous and may include subpopulations of antibiotic tolerant or heteroresistant cells. The reversibility of these phenotypes and lack of biomarkers to differentiate functionally different, but ...

Development of an inducer-free, virulence gene promoter-controlled, and fluorescent reporter-labeled CRISPR interference system in Staphylococcus aureus

Microbiology Spectrum
The dCas9-based Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) interference (CRISPRi) gene regulation technique requires two components: a catalytically inactive Cas9 protein (dCas9) and a single-guide RNA that targets the gene of ...
