Identification and Characterization of a Novel d-Branched-Chain Amino Acids Importer from Lactobacillus fermentum. [PDF]
Certain lactic acid bacteria produce d‐branched‐chain amino acids (d‐BCAA) and encode isoleucine 2‐epimerase (ILEP) and an uncharacterized transporter (AAP). We demonstrate that the transporter is a novel, non‐stereospecific BCAA importer. The ILEP‐AAP operon likely aids in storing and utilizing BCAA in a form less accessible to other organisms ...

Functional characterization of unique enzymes in Xanthomonas euvesicatoria related to degradation of arabinofurano-oligosaccharides on hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins. [PDF]
In this study, we clarified the functions of three uncharacterized enzymes, XCV2724, XCV2728, and XCV2729, in Xanthomonas euvesicatoria, the causal agent of bacterial spot of tomato and pepper. The genes corresponding to the three enzymes are homologs of

Current Update on Intrinsic and Acquired Colistin Resistance Mechanisms in Bacteria
Colistin regained global interest as a consequence of the rising prevalence of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative Enterobacteriaceae. In parallel, colistin-resistant bacteria emerged in response to the unregulated use of this antibiotic.

An altered immune response, but not individual cationic antimicrobial peptides, is associated with the oral attenuation of Ara4N-deficient Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium in mice. [PDF]
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) uses two-component regulatory systems (TCRS) to respond to stimuli in the local microenvironment.
