Exopolysaccharide Quantification for the Plant Pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
Soluble exopolysaccharide is a major virulence factor produced by the plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum. Its massive production during plant infection is associated with the arrest of water flow in xylem vessels leading eventually to plant death. The

σB Inhibits Poly-N-Acetylglucosamine Exopolysaccharide Synthesis and Biofilm Formation in Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2019
Due to its multifaceted lifestyle, Staphylococcus aureus needs a complex regulatory network to connect environmental signals with cellular physiology. One particular transcription factor, named σB (SigB), is involved in the general stress response and ...

Effect of Nanoparticles Type and Content on the Antimicrobial Activity of Magnetoelectric Polymer‐Based Composites

open access: yesMacromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
Magnetoelectric P(VDF‐TrFE) nanocomposites containing CFO or Fe3O4 nanoparticles were developed to generate electroactive microenvironments under magnetic stimulation. At 1 Hz, particularly with 20% CFO, strong antimicrobial effects were observed against E. coli and S. aureus. This approach highlights the potential of magnetically activated surfaces to

Identification of the Clostridial cellulose synthase and characterization of the cognate glycosyl hydrolase, CcsZ.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Biofilms are community structures of bacteria enmeshed in a self-produced matrix of exopolysaccharides. The biofilm matrix serves numerous roles, including resilience and persistence, making biofilms a subject of research interest among persistent ...

Glyco‐Nanogels for Modulating Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Nanogels presenting α‐galactose and β‐fucose can significantly alter Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm dynamics through their interaction with lectins. Application timing is crucial: pre‐treatment reduces biofilm, while treatment after biofilm initiation increases biomass.

The Effect of Cellulose Overproduction on Binding and Biofilm Formation on Roots by Agrobacterium tumefaciens

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2005
Agrobacterium tumefaciens growing in liquid attaches to the surface of tomato and Arabidopsis thaliana roots, forming a biofilm. The bacteria also colonize roots grown in sterile quartz sand.

Advancements in Mass Spectrometry‐Based Glycomics in Food and Nutritional Science

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review highlights advancements in mass spectrometry (MS)‐based glycomics in food and nutritional science. Carbohydrates, which are vital for human health, exhibit complex structures, making their analysis challenging. MS has become an indispensable tool for elucidating the structures of carbohydrates, including glycans, through soft ...

Single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas assays for point‐of‐need detection of Stewart's wilt pathogen (Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii) of corn and Maize dwarf mosaic virus

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1988-1999, April 2025.
Schematic diagram of the single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a/13a diagnostic assays for the detection of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii and Maize dwarf mosaic virus. The validated assays provide a useful and sensitive molecular tool for detecting two quarantine pathogens of maize within a minimal resource framework suitable for fast‐tracking the ...
