Identification and properties of a keratinase from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia N4 with potential application in biotechnology [PDF]
The bacterium Stenotrophomonas maltophilia N4 produces different extracellular proteases when cultured in a mineral medium with 1% of bird feathers. One of the enzymes was purified and characterized.

Involvement of Signal Peptidase I in Streptococcus sanguinis Biofilm Formation [PDF]
Biofilm accounts for 65%-80% of microbial infections in humans. Considerable evidence links biofilm formation to oral disease and consequently systemic infections. Eradication of biofilm-associated infections is important. Streptococcus sanguinis, a Gram-

NATURAL ANTIMICROBIALS IN THE PIPELINE AND POSSIBLE SYNERGISM WITH ANTIBIOTICS TO OVERCOME MICROBIAL RESISTANCE [PDF]
The unresponsive use of antibiotics led to the appearance of multiple drug-resistant bacteria strains. Studying the mechanism by which bacteria can resist antibiotics, the so called quorum sensing and biofilm formation, enabled the researchers to find ...

IDENTIFICATION OF PUTATIVE O-REPEAT BIOSYNTHETIC GENES IN NEISSERIA SICCA 4320 [PDF]
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and lipooligosaccharide (LOS) are important virulence determinants found in gram-negative bacteria. LOS differs from LPS in that it lacks the O-repeat characteristic of LPS.

A Soluble Aggregated Thermophile Metalloaminopeptidase Produced by an Alcalophile Strain of Bacillus halodurans [PDF]
: H4 strain isolated from Lake Bogoria was found to be Bacillus halodurans. The Bacteria produced an extracellular peptidase activity toward substrates Ile-pNA, Met-pNA and Val-pNA. It also hydrolyzed small peptides.
