Bacterial glycobiology: rhamnose-containing cell wall polysaccharides in Gram-positive bacteria.
The composition of the Gram-positive cell wall is typically described as containing peptidoglycan, proteins and essential secondary cell wall structures called teichoic acids, which comprise approximately half of the cell wall mass.

The genome of Rhodococcus erythropolis D‐1 was analyzed by bioinformatic tools to mine a novel nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) gene cluster. A nonribosomal peptide analog ZURJC5 associated with the NRPS was chemically synthesized. Through structure‐activity relationship studies, ZURJC28 was ultimately obtained and showed antibacterial activity ...

Two Screening Assays to Detect Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus spp.
Enterococci have become major nosocomial pathogens. An increasing number of these infections are as a result of vancomycin-resistant enterococci. Accurate detection of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) is important, so that appropriate therapy and ...

This study investigates the regulatory effects of lactulose and polyethylene glycol (PEG) on the composition of gut microbiota in elderly constipation patients with chronic renal insufficiency by comparing the changes in microbial abundance. Both lactulose and PEG significantly modulate the gut microbiota structure, though their specific mechanisms and

Effect of probiotics on the viability of porcine and human neutrophils in vitro
Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium and Enterococcus cultures are increasingly used as probiotics for humans and pigs. The aim of this study was to investigate if co-cultivation of porcine and human neutrophils with probiotics can lead to increased apoptosis ...

Enterococcus spp.: Is It a Bad Choice for a Good Use—A Conundrum to Solve?
Since antiquity, the ubiquitous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) Enterococci, which are just as predominant in both human and animal intestinal commensal flora, have been used (and still are) as probiotics in food and feed production. Their qualities encounter

Production of biogenic amines by Enterococci
Enterococci were presented in all tested samples of raw cow milk (six samples) at the level 103-105 CFU/ml, fresh cheeses (five samples) at the level 102-106 CFU/g and semi-hard cheeses (five samples) at the level 103-105 CFU/g.

Enterococcus avium osteomyelitis [PDF]
Eriterocorcrrs avium, has rarely been reported as a human pathogen. Having reviewed the literature, Patel et a1 reported nine cases of E. aviirm bacteremia. These enterococcal bacteremia episodes were usually polymicrobial and associated with gastrointestinal diseases [ 1 ,?I. Recently a case of E. avirim bacteremia secondary to a venous thrombosis was
