Disruptions in outer membrane-peptidoglycan interactions enhance bile salt resistance in O-antigen-producing E. coli

mBio
Bile salts (BS) are antimicrobials that disrupt bacterial cell membranes and induce oxidative stress. The gut bacterium Escherichia coli is naturally resistant to BS, including the model strain K12 MG1655 that produces a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) without ...

An N4-like Caulobacter phage requires host smooth lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis for infection

Journal of Bacteriology
Caulobacter species are Alphaproteobacteria that commonly inhabit plant-associated and aquatic microbial communities. Although Caulobacter is widespread and has long served as a model for the study of bacterial cell biology, our understanding of viruses ...

A two-step screen identifies a small molecule that disrupts membrane voltage and is effective against growing and persister gram-negative bacteria

Microbiology Spectrum
New antibiotics effective against gram-negative bacteria are difficult to discover because many small molecules are excluded by the cell envelope. There is a growing consensus that the proton motive force (PMF) represents a key target for the development

A multilayered cell envelope of a member of the Chloroflexota offers an anchoring platform for the archaellum

Frontiers in Microbiology
In a previous study, we discovered that Litorilinea aerophila, a member of the bacterial phylum Chloroflexota, had acquired a bona fide archaellum gene cluster through horizontal gene transfer from Archaea, a surprising finding given that the archaellum ...
