Distinct contributions of O‐acetylserine sulfhydrylases to cysteine biosynthesis in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Cysteine biosynthesis in bacteria proceeds primarily via the de novo pathway, involving serine acetyltransferase (CysE) and O‐acetylserine sulfhydrylase (OASS). This pathway is absent in humans, and its inhibition impairs microbial fitness, virulence, and antibiotic resistance, making its enzymes attractive antimicrobial targets. Most bacteria

From Membrane Composition to Antimicrobial Strategies: Experimental and Computational Approaches to AMP Design and Selectivity

Small, Volume 22, Issue 16, 17 March 2026.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.

Biofilm Associated Persistence and Drug Tolerance in Mycobacteria Within Host Microenvironments

APMIS, Volume 134, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Biofilms formed by mycobacteria, particularly Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), represent a major challenge in tuberculosis (TB) treatment due to their highly organized structure and their capacity to induce phenotypic drug tolerance. These three‐dimensional bacterial aggregates are embedded in a self‐produced extracellular matrix that ...
