Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance: Data Harmonisation and Data Selection within Secondary Data Use

Antibiotics
Resistance to last-resort antibiotics is a global threat to public health. Therefore, surveillance and monitoring systems for antimicrobial resistance should be established on a national and international scale.

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

Purification and preparation of Marchantia polymorpha Auxin Response Factor 2 for phase separation studies

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe detailed protocols for the purification and preparation of Marchantia polymorpha Auxin Response Factor 2 (MpARF2). This protein is fused to an MBP solubility tag and an mNG fluorescent tag and is purified from Escherichia coli. The presented procedures make it possible to study MpARF2 assemblies, which could arise from phase separation ...

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 ...

Results on the mandatory notification of carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, Hesse, Germany, January 2012 – April 2013

GMS Infectious Diseases, 2014
Carbapenems are important therapeutic agents for treating infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Mandatory reporting of carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (CR-GN) can allow for a better understanding of the changing CR ...

Gram-positive bacterial lipoglycans based on a glycosylated diacylglycerol lipid anchor are microbe-associated molecular patterns recognized by TLR2 [PDF]

, 2013
Innate immune recognition is the first line of host defense against invading microorganisms. It is a based on the detection, by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), of invariant molecular signatures that are unique to microorganisms.

Identification and characterization of a gene conferring stress resistance in Escherichia coli and cyanobacteria

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Functional screening identified PcSyn14890, a cyanobacteria‐specific protein that enhances growth and stress resistance in E. coli and Synechocystis PCC6803. Although we expected it to function as a molecular chaperone, it was unable to protect against thermal aggregation of GAPDH.
