Antibiotic resistance evolved via inactivation of a ribosomal RNA methylating enzyme. [PDF]
, 2016 Modifications of the bacterial ribosome regulate the function of the ribosome and modulate its susceptibility to antibiotics. By modifying a highly conserved adenosine A2503 in 23S rRNA, methylating enzyme Cfr confers resistance to a range of ribosome ...

The conjunctival microbiome in health and trachomatous disease: a case control study. [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: Trachoma, caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, remains the world's leading infectious cause of blindness. Repeated ocular infection during childhood leads to scarring of the conjunctiva, in-turning of the eyelashes (trichiasis) and corneal ...

A cfr-Like Gene from Clostridium difficile Confers Multiple Antibiotic Resistance by the Same Mechanism as the cfr Gene [PDF]
, 2015 The Cfr RNA methyltransferase causes multiple resistances to peptidyl transferase inhibitors by methylation of A2503 23S rRNA. Many cfr-like gene sequences in the databases code for unknown functions.

Thermostable Bacterial Esterases From Lipase Family 1.5 Degrade Compostable Polyesters PBAT and PBSA
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.This study highlights that there is a broader diversity of enzymes with polyester depolymerase activity to be discovered from nature, beyond the well‐known PETases. We demonstrate that uncharacterized bacterial lipases possess polyesterase activity and thermostability, offering promising candidates for industrial plastic recycling without extensive ...
