Small, EarlyView.Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.

The Signature of God in Medicine and Microbiology An Apologetic Argument for Declarative Design in the Discoveries of Alexander Fleming [PDF]
, 2016 In logic and reasoning, a signature indicates the presence of an author; likewise, the characteristics of staphylococci indicate the presence of a Creator.

Transcriptional profiling of colicin-induced cell death of Escherichia coli MG1655 identifies potential mechanisms by which bacteriocins promote bacterial diversity [PDF]
, 2004 We report the transcriptional response of Escherichia coli MG1655 to damage induced by colicins E3 and E9, bacteriocins that kill cells through inactivation of the ribosome and degradation of chromosomal DNA, respectively. Colicin E9 strongly induced the

Allergy, EarlyView.Integrating skin barrier measurements with omics and machine learning, we found that postbiotics and NAM regulate skin homeostasis through distinct, strain‐ and dose‐dependent mechanisms. Postbiotics primarily modulate skin barrier function by promoting keratinocyte differentiation and suppressing inflammation.

Bacteriocins, spite and virulence [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2004 There has been much interest in using social evolution theory to predict the damage to a host from parasite infection, termed parasite virulence. Most of this work has focused on how high kinship between the parasites infecting a host can select for more prudent exploitation of the host, leading to a negative relationship between virulence and parasite

A genomic view of food-related and probiotic Enterococcus strains [PDF]
, 2017 The study of enterococcal genomes has grown considerably in recent years. While special attentionis paid to comparative genomic analysis among clinical relevant isolates, in this study we performedan exhaustive comparative analysis of enterococcal ...

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Infectious diseases significantly impact equine health and welfare, causing illness and death, and loss of productivity globally. One such disease is ‘strangles’, a highly contagious upper respiratory condition in horses caused by Streptococcus equi subspecies equi (SEE).

Revisiting the application, current trends, and prospect of bacteriocins in food preservation
Discover FoodBacteriocins, naturally produced antimicrobial peptides from bacteria, are emerging as crucial tools in modern food preservation. They effectively inhibit spoilage and pathogenic bacteria, offering a natural alternative to traditional preservatives.

Current Applications of Bacteriocin
International Journal of Microbiology, 2020 Bacteriocins are multifunctional, ribosomally produced, proteinaceous substances with pronounced antimicrobial activity at certain concentrations. They are produced by bacteria and certain members of archaea to inhibit the growth of similar or closely related bacterial strains.
