Structural and Functional Siderophore Remodeling by Enzymatic Delipidation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A surprising functional switch in bacterial siderophores was discovered through genome mining and the analysis of environmental and pathogenic Pandoraea species. Pandorachelin B, a lipocyclopeptide that promotes swarming motility, is cleaved by a specialized acylase, yielding a ring‐contracted, homodetic cyclopeptide, pandorachelin A, which exhibits ...

Conformational Snapshots of CydDC in a Native Lipid Bilayer Coupling Heme Transport to Antibiotic Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Phylogenetic and biochemical analyses of the heme transporter CydDC reveal its functional conservation throughout bacterial evolution and demonstrate its unique asymmetric allosteric mechanism. Furthermore, impairment of CydDC function directly affects bacterial antibiotic resistance and likely compromises antibiotic efficacy through drug efflux.

Utility of beta-lactam allergy assessment in patients receiving vancomycin for surgical prophylaxis

Surgery in Practice and Science
Background: Beta-lactam antibiotics are first-line agents for most patients receiving antimicrobial prophylaxis in surgical procedures. Despite evidence showing low cross-reactivity between penicillins and cephalosporins, patients with beta-lactam ...

Nanomaterials for Allergy Diagnosis and Treatment: Advances, Opportunities and Translational Challenges

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanomaterials offer dual applications in allergy management. For diagnosis, nanomaterials enhance analytical sensitivity and improve detection in specific IgE and functional assays such as the basophil activation test (BAT). For allergen‐specific immunotherapy, nanomaterials enable allergen masking and controlled release, and effectively modulate the ...

A Novel Class of “Super‐Strained” Spiro Heterocycles: Gateway to 1‐Azaspiro[3.3]heptane Derivatives, and Biological Validation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A new class of “super‐strained” spiro heterocycles—spirocyclic 1‐azabicyclo[1.1.0]butanes—was synthesized via insertion of cyclobutane‐, oxetane‐, and azetidine‐containing sulfonium reagents into substituted azirines. The stability of this new class of compounds was studied.

Surfactant-free purification of membrane protein complexes from bacteria: application to the staphylococcal penicillin-binding protein complex PBP2/PBP2a. [PDF]

, 2014
Surfactant-mediated removal of proteins from biomembranes invariably results in partial or complete loss of function and disassembly of multi-protein complexes. We determined the capacity of styrene-co-maleic acid (SMA) co-polymer to remove components of

Hypersensitivity Reactions to Beta-lactam Antibiotics [PDF]

, 2021
The incidence of hypersensitivity reaction with the use of beta-lactam antibiotics ranges from 5-18%. The prescribing tendency of other antibiotic groups in patients with beta-lactam hypersensitivity causes an increase in the incidence of resistant ...

A Comprehensive Microbial Gene Catalog of the Human Airway Microbiome Across Anatomical Sites and Geographic Regions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated Human Airway Microbiome Gene Catalog (iHAMGC) is constructed from 12,273 metagenomic airway samples, providing a high‐resolution reference of respiratory microbial genes. The catalog enables systematic exploration of taxonomic and functional variation across airway niches and geographic regions, revealing site‐specific and region ...
