Acidic pH Restricts Non‐Tuberculous Mycobacteria Replication

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 125, Issue 5, Page 375-388, May 2026.
Different nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species display unique replication profiles in acidic pH in vitro which correlates to their replication within human macrophages. Inhibition of the acidic environments within the macrophage enhances bacterial viability emphasising the role of acidic pH during NTM infections.

The Ti Plasmid‐Encoded VirJ Functions as a Lysyl‐Phosphatidylglycerol Hydrolase in Agrobacterium tumefaciens

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 125, Issue 5, Page 426-441, May 2026.
We identify the long‐known virulence factor VirJ as a lysyl‐phosphatidylglycerol (L‐PG) hydrolase. Like the chromosomally encoded virulence factor AcvB, it prevents excessive accumulation of L‐PG in the membrane, thereby maintaining efficient T‐DNA transfer via the Type IV secretion system (T4SS) in Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

The Hemoprotein Hhy1 Promotes Heme‐Dependent Catalase Activity of Ctt1

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 125, Issue 5, Page 389-411, May 2026.
A Schizosaccharomyces pombe strain deficient in heme (hem1Δ) and siderophore (Fc) biosynthesis, as well as high‐affinity iron (Fe) uptake (blue), was used to uncover the hemoprotein Hhy1 that promotes the heme‐dependent activity of the catalase Ctt1. In contrast, hhy1Δ cells exhibit reduced Ctt1 activity and increased sensitivity to oxidative stress ...

Gut Microbiota‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles in Patients With Obesity Undergoing Gastric Bypass Surgery

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 125, Issue 5, Page 412-425, May 2026.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been suggested to participate in gut microbiota–host communication. While obesity and bariatric surgery have been shown to alter the gut microbiota composition, changes in gut microbiota‐EVs have not been investigated.

Equipped for success: genomes and metabolomes of the European Amanita muscaria are conserved in its novel South African range

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1863-1883, May 2026.
Summary Plants and soils have been moved around the world for centuries, but invasive mushrooms receive scant attention. The Amanita muscaria species complex was introduced to South Africa in the context of forestry, but its origins, ecology and recent evolution are unstudied. We sequenced the genomes of 24 Northern and Southern Hemisphere A. muscaria,

Postoperative Antibiotics Do Not Prevent Surgical Site Infections After Routine Ophthalmic Soft Tissue Surgeries in Dogs—A Retrospective Study

open access: yesVeterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 29, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose To compare the incidence of surgical site infections (SSI) following routine ophthalmic soft tissue surgeries in dogs receiving (AB) and not receiving (noAB) postoperative antibiotics. Methods Clinical records of dogs that underwent enucleations, wedge resections, medial canthoplasties, and simple and complicated eyelid surgeries with ...
