c-di-GMP-mediated pause behavior enables Pseudomonas aeruginosa navigation in porous environments

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Bacteria frequently encounter porous environments in nature and clinical settings, yet how single-flagellated pathogens navigate such confined spaces remains unclear.

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

The influence of motility on bacterial accumulation in a microporous channel

Soft Matter, 2021
We study the transport of bacteria in a porous media modeled by a square channel containing one cylindrical obstacle via molecular dynamics simulations coupled to a lattice Boltzmann fluid.

Bacterial Motility in Biofilm Under Shear Flow

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2022
A key role in bacteria surfaces contamination and biofilm development is played by cell motility and adhesion, that can be heavily dependent on flow conditions.

Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Antimicrobial surfaces based on self-assembled nanoreactors : from block copolymer synthesis to bacterial adhesion study [PDF]

, 2010
The aim of this work is to develop a new strategy for the prevention of biofilm growth. For this purpose, we prepared bioactive surfaces resulting from the surface-immobilization of nanoreactors self-assembled from amphiphilic poly(isobutylene)-block ...
