Genome-wide identification of essential genes in the invasive Streptococcus anginosus strain
Streptococcus anginosus, part of the Streptococcus anginosus group (SAG), is a human commensal increasingly recognized as an opportunistic pathogen responsible for abscesses formation and infections, also invasive ones.

Maturation of Pseudo-Nucleus Compartment in P. aeruginosa, Infected with Giant phiKZ Phage
The giant phiKZ phage infection induces the appearance of a pseudo-nucleus inside the bacterial cytoplasm. Here, we used RT-PCR, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), electron tomography, and analytical electron microscopy to study the morphology of ...

Bacterial DNA amplifies neutrophilic inflammation in IL-17-exposed airways
Background Neutrophilic asthma (NA) is associated with increased airway interleukin (IL)-17 and abnormal bacterial community such as dominance of nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi), particularly during asthma exacerbations.

The origin of extracellular DNA in bacterial biofilm infections in vivo
Extracellular DNA (eDNA) plays an important role in both the aggregation of bacteria and in the interaction of the resulting biofilms with polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) during an inflammatory response.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Osmotic pressure: resisting or promoting DNA ejection from phage [PDF]
Recent in vitro experiments have shown that DNA ejection from bacteriophage can be partially stopped by surrounding osmotic pressure when ejected DNA is digested by DNase I on the course of ejection.

Multiple ETS family transcription factors bind mutant p53 via distinct interaction regions
Mutant p53 gain‐of‐function is thought to be mediated by interaction with other transcription factors. We identify multiple ETS transcription factors that can bind mutant p53 and found that this interaction can be promoted by a PXXPP motif. ETS proteins that strongly bound mutant p53 were upregulated in ovarian cancer compared to ETS proteins that ...

The emerging role of DNA methylation in the pathogenicity of bacterial pathogens
Uncovering the mechanisms regulating the pathogenicity of bacterial pathogens can help improve diagnostic capabilities and aid the development of new drugs, both of which are crucial for reducing the burden caused by bacterial infections. In recent years,
