Abstract Persistent bacteria subpopulations showing multidrug tolerance pose significant challenges to antibiotic therapy. While the HipBA toxin–antitoxin (TA) system is known to play a role in persister formation, existing studies predominantly focus on its kinase activity and intracellular regulatory pathways, with limited attention to the ...

ISAba1‐mediated crp‐osmC amplification enhances host‐associated fitness in Acinetobacter baumannii
Abstract Acinetobacter baumannii is a pathogen, highly adaptable to both hospital‐ and host‐associated environments. Understanding the genetic mechanisms underlying its adaptability is critical for controlling its persistence. Our study identified the crp‐osmC gene cluster, flanked by ISAba1 elements, as a significant genetic structure undergoing ...

ABSTRACT Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is effective against a variety of microorganisms. Here, we described effects on an Escherichia coli strain isolated from hospital wastewater caused by treatment with physical plasma. E. coli GW‐AmxH19 was incubated in artificial wastewater and treated for 15 min with CAP.
