Porcupine‐Quill‐Inspired Shape‐Morphing Biointerfaces Disassemble Biofilms

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...

Methacrylated Gelatin and Graphene Oxide Hybrid Hydrogels Composed‐Bioinks for 3D Tissue Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Bioinks made from hydrogels, such as methacrylated gelatin (GelMA), serve as the base material for bioprinted tissues, offering versatility and biocompatibility for a range of applications. Additional components however are still needed to improve functionality and mechanical stability of hydrogels. One of these components is graphene oxide (GO), added

Structure and Function of a Multi‐Megadalton Virus‐Like Proteolytic Dodecahedron

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Zuzalysin, a virulence metallopeptidase of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, is secreted as a latent, flexible ≈95‐kDa monomer. Calcium triggers cysteine‐switch activation and hierarchical assembly into pentamers, bipentamers, tripentamers, and a ≈5.6‐MDa, ≈355‐Å dodecahedron. Structures at 1.8–3.6 Å reveal a virus‐sized catalytic cage

Broad‐Spectrum, Cell Envelope‐Active Marinocyclin Antibiotics From a Coral‐Derived Bacterium Are Effective Against Colistin‐Resistant Bacteria

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Marinocyclins, polycationic macrocyclic depsipeptides, were discovered by genome mining from the marine coral‐derived bacterium Aquimarina megaterium. The compounds have broad‐spectrum activity against gram‐positive and gram‐negative ESKAPE bacteria.

Rational Design of a Synthetic Galliphore for the Diagnostic Nuclear Imaging and Treatment of Bacterial Infections

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
KO‐NH2 is a synthetic metallophore that preferentially binds Ga3+ over Fe3+ and is recognized by bacterial transporters. Photocrosslinking identifies CirA and Fiu as key uptake proteins in E. coli. KO‐NH2 enables targeted imaging and treatment of E. coli soft tissue infections.
