Suppression of gut colonization by multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli clinical isolates through cooperative niche exclusion

Nature Communications
Human gut colonization by multi-drug resistant Enterobacterales (MDR-E) poses a risk for subsequent infections. Because of the collateral damage antibiotics cause to the microbiota, microbiome-based interventions aimed at promoting decolonization have ...

Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria – analysis of the data obtained through a mandatory reporting system in the Rhine-Main region, Germany, 2012–2015

GMS Hygiene and Infection Control, 2016
Background: Multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (MRGN) and the infections they cause are a serious threat and a challenge to the healthcare system. This particularly applies to carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (CRGN).

Protamine-like proteins have bactericidal activity. The first evidence in Mytilus galloprovincialis. [PDF]

, 2018
The major acid-soluble protein components of the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis sperm chromatin consist of the protamine-like proteins PL-II, PL-III and PL-IV, an intermediate group of sperm nuclear basic proteins between histones and protamines.
