Simple and effective remediation strategies of Martian perchlorates

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Martian surface minerals have abundant perchlorate salts existing in both solid and liquid phases that will impair agricultural operations, biological life‐support systems, and in situ resource utilization due to their toxicity. Thus, simple and effective perchlorate remediation strategies will be necessary for the successful use of Martian ...

The mechanism of action of auranofin analogs in B. cenocepacia revealed by chemogenomic profiling

Microbiology Spectrum
Drug repurposing efforts led to the discovery of bactericidal activity in auranofin, a gold-containing drug used to treat rheumatoid arthritis. Auranofin kills Gram-positive bacteria by inhibiting thioredoxin reductase, an enzyme that scavenges reactive ...

The Effect of 2-Thiocyanatopyridine Derivative 11026103 on Burkholderia Cenocepacia: Resistance Mechanisms and Systemic Impact

Antibiotics, 2019
Bacteria of the Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) are associated with significant decline of lung functions in cystic fibrosis patients. Bcc infections are virtually impossible to eradicate due to their irresponsiveness to antibiotics.

Cis‐2‐decenoic acid modulates Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence through a noncanonical transcriptional regulator

mLife, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 623-637, December 2025.
Abstract Diffusible signal factor (DSF)‐family quorum sensing (QS) signals are widely utilized by many pathogenic bacteria to modulate various biological functions and virulence. Previous studies showed that cis‐2‐decenoic acid (cis‐DA) is involved in the modulation of biofilm dispersion in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, but the regulatory mechanism is ...

Structural basis for type VI secreted peptidoglycan DL-endopeptidase function, specificity and neutralization in Serratia marcescens [PDF]

, 2013
Some Gram-negative bacteria target their competitors by exploiting the type VI secretion system to extrude toxic effector proteins. To prevent self-harm, these bacteria also produce highly specific immunity proteins that neutralize these antagonistic ...

Sustainable biofuel production from fish processing waste: lipase‐catalyzed hydroesterification of tilapia residual oil

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 19, Issue 6, Page 1948-1969, November/December 2025.
Abstract Fishing waste and byproducts, whether naturally occurring or from industrial processing, are important sources of high‐value compounds. Fertilizers, biomaterials, cosmetics, biolubricants, and biodiesel are some of the substances that can be obtained from these residues. The objective of this study was to conduct a theoretical and experimental

Glycoproteomics and Its Role in Understanding Bacterial O‐Linked Glycosylation

PROTEOMICS, Volume 25, Issue 21-22, Page 160-176, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Protein glycosylation is now recognized as a ubiquitous process observed in all domains of life. Within bacterial species, carbohydrates can be attached to multiple residues with glycosylation of serine, threonine, or tyrosine residues via their hydroxyl side chains referred to as O‐linked glycosylation.
