Genetic and functional characterization of the gene cluster directing the biosynthesis of putisolvin I and II in Pseudomonas putida strain PCL1445 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Pseudomonas putida PCL1445 secretes two cyclic lipopeptides, putisolvin I and putisolvin II, which possess a surface-tension-reducing ability, and are able to inhibit biofilm formation and to break down biofilms of Pseudomonas species including ...

Broad‐Spectrum, Cell Envelope‐Active Marinocyclin Antibiotics From a Coral‐Derived Bacterium Are Effective Against Colistin‐Resistant Bacteria

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Marinocyclins, polycationic macrocyclic depsipeptides, were discovered by genome mining from the marine coral‐derived bacterium Aquimarina megaterium. The compounds have broad‐spectrum activity against gram‐positive and gram‐negative ESKAPE bacteria.

The Hydrophobicity and Antifungal Potentiation of Burkholdine Analogues

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
The burkholdines are a family of cyclic lipopeptides reported to exhibit antifungal activity. We synthesized a series of 18 burkholdine analogues in good yield by conventional Fmoc-SPPS followed by cyclization with DIPCI/HOBt in the solution phase ...

Peptidoglycan-Associated Cyclic Lipopeptide Disrupts Viral Infectivity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2019
In this article, we consider a role for bacteria in shaping coronavirus infection. Taking cues from studies of enteric viruses, we initially investigated how bacterial surface components might improve CoV infection. Instead, we found that peptidoglycan-associated surfactin is a potent viricidal compound that disrupts virion integrity with broad ...

Insights into the Defense-Related Events Occurring in Plant Cells Following Perception of Surfactin-Type Lipopeptide from Bacillus subtilis

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2009
Multiple strains of Bacillus subtilis were demonstrated to stimulate plant defense responses, and cyclic lipopeptides may be involved in the elicitation of this induced systemic resistance phenomenon.

Versatile role of Pseudomonas fuscovaginae cyclic lipopeptides in plant and microbial interactions

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Pseudomonas fuscovaginae is the most prominent bacterial sheath rot pathogen, causing sheath brown rot disease in rice. This disease occurs worldwide and it is characterized by typical necrotic lesions on the sheath, as well as a reduction in the number ...
