Brucella NyxA and NyxB dimerization enhances effector function during infection
Brucella abortus thrives inside cells thanks to the translocation of effector proteins that fine‐tune cellular functions. NyxA and NyxB are two effectors that destabilize the nucleolar localization of their host target, SENP3. We show that the Nyx proteins directly interact with each other and that their dimerization is essential for their function ...

"Alternative" endocytic mechanisms exploited by pathogens: new avenues for therapeutic delivery? [PDF]
Some pathogens utilize unique routes to enter cells that may evade the intracellular barriers encountered by the typical clathrin-mediated endocytic pathway.

Recovery of a medieval Brucella melitensis genome using shotgun metagenomics [PDF]
Shotgun metagenomics provides a powerful assumption-free approach to the recovery of pathogen genomes from contemporary and historical material. We sequenced the metagenome of a calcified nodule from the skeleton of a 14th-century middle-aged male ...

Phylogenetic analysis reveals an ancient gene duplication as the origin of the MdtABC efflux pump. [PDF]
The efflux pumps from the Resistance-Nodulation-Division family, RND, are main contributors to intrinsic antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. Among this family, the MdtABC pump is unusual by having two inner membrane components.

MOLECULAR MECHANISMS OF BRUCELLA PERSISTENCE
Brucellosis is an infectious, especially dangerous zoonotic disease of agricultural and wild animals, from which it is transmitted to humans and characterized by a chronic course with disability of working-age patients. Bacteria of the genus Brucella are

tRNA signatures reveal polyphyletic origins of streamlined SAR11 genomes among the alphaproteobacteria [PDF]
Phylogenomic analyses are subject to bias from compositional convergence and noise from horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Compositional convergence is a likely cause of controversy regarding phylogeny of the SAR11 group of Alphaproteobacteria that have ...

This graphical abstract text can be better represented through illustrations for milk samples, bacteria, risk factors (e.g., handwashing, containers), and antibiotic resistance patterns for clearer understanding and to increase engagement. ABSTRACT Background Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a versatile pathogen that causes diseases. Raw milk is an
