Identification and Characterization of a Novel Prophage Lysin against Streptococcus dysgalactiae [PDF]

open access: yesMolecules
Streptococcus dysgalactiae infection can cause bovine mastitis and lead to huge economic losses for the dairy industry. The abuse of antibiotics has resulted in growing drug resistance of S.

How phagocytic cells kill bacteria: Lessons from a professional killer. [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio
How phagocytic cells ingest and kill bacteria has been studied for more than a century, but many questions remain unanswered. The study of the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum brings new answers, and new questions. Professional phagocytic cells such as neutrophils and macrophages, as well as free‐living soil amoebae like Dictyostelium discoideum, employ

Bacteriolysis by a Species of Streptomyces [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1951
SUMMARY: The lysis of dead Bacterium coli by concentrates prepared from filtrates of a Streptomyces sp. is probably due to proteolysis. In any event the lysis can be accounted for by proteolysis, even if the action of other bacteriolytic enzymes cannot be excluded.

Dual Inhibitory Activity of Petroselinic Acid Enriched in Fennel Against Porphyromonas gingivalis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Increasing evidence has shown that a major periodontal pathobiont, Porphyromonas gingivalis, triggers oral dysbiosis leading to deterioration not only of periodontal health, but also of several systemic conditions.

Molecular basis of IRGB10 oligomerization and membrane association for pathogen membrane disruption

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Ha et al. present a crystal structure of mouse IRGB10, a mouse interferon-inducible GTPase that mediates bacteriolysis in cell autonomous immunity. With further mutagenesis studies, they show that IRGB10 bound to GDP forms an inactive head-to-head dimer,

Induction of Bacteriolysis by Cysteamine and Its Derivatives [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1958
Cysteamine and certain closely related derivatives induced lysis in a majority of 28 strains of Bacillus; cultures of all other genera tested were resistant. Forty-three additional sulphur and/or nitrogen containing compounds were unable to induce lysis. Optimum conditions for cysteamine activity included exposure of metabolizing post-log.

Image-Based Dynamic Phenotyping Reveals Genetic Determinants of Filamentation-Mediated β-Lactam Tolerance

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Antibiotic tolerance characterized by slow killing of bacteria in response to a drug can lead to treatment failure and promote the emergence of resistance.

Model-Driven Controlled Alteration of Nanopillar Cap Architecture Reveals its Effects on Bactericidal Activity

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Nanostructured surfaces can be engineered to kill bacteria in a contact-dependent manner. The study of bacterial interactions with a nanoscale topology is thus crucial to developing antibacterial surfaces.
