The multifarious roles of Tol-Pal in Gram-negative bacteria
In the 1960s several groups reported the isolation and preliminary genetic mapping of Escherichia coli strains tolerant towards the action of colicins. These pioneering studies kick-started two new fields in bacteriology; one centred on how bacteriocins ...

Extended-spectrum ß-lactamases in gram negative bacteria
Extended-spectrum ß-lactamases (ESBLs) are a group of plasmid-mediated, diverse, complex and rapidly evolving enzymes that are posing a major therapeutic challenge today in the treatment of hospitalized and community-based patients.

Genome sequences of nine gram-negative vaginal bacterial isolates [PDF]
The vagina is home to a wide variety of bacteria that have great potential to impact human health. Here, we announce reference strains (now available through BEI Resources) and draft genome sequences for 9 Gram-negative vaginal isolates from the taxa ...

The outer membrane is an essential load-bearing element in Gram-negative bacteria
Gram-negative bacteria possess a complex cell envelope that consists of a plasma membrane, a peptidoglycan cell wall and an outer membrane. The envelope is a selective chemical barrier1 that defines cell shape2 and allows the cell to sustain large ...

Isolation of Gram-negative Bacteria From Metacarpal Injury of Panthera Tigris Sumatrae Trapped in Subulussalam, Indonesia [PDF]
The present study aimed to isolate gram-negative bacteria infected metacarpal of Panthera tigris sumatrae trapped in Subulussalam, Aceh Province. Swab sample was obtained from metacarpal injury of P. tigris sumatrae.

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

Can the Gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli colonize the gut of Lone Star Tick (Amblyomma americanum)? [PDF]
Ticks are obligate blood feeding ectoparasites and vectors of several mammalian pathogens (Williams-Newkirk et al, 2014). In addition to pathogens they also carry a bacterial community with commensal and symbiotic relationships (Bonnet et al, 2017 ...
