Transcriptional profiling of the primary cell envelope stress response (CESR) of Bacillus subtilis exposed to a range of cell wall‐targeting antimicrobials, combining RNAseq and high‐resolution tiling arrays. We revealed the complexity of the CESR, the contribution of extracytoplasmic function sigma factors (ECFs) and two‐component signal transduction ...

Biomimetic membranes (liposomes) were prepared from yeast phospholipids with variable concentrations of ergosterol and exposed to antimicrobial compounds. Dynamic and electrophoretic light scattering measured changes in size and ζ‐potential to study their interaction with the antimicrobial compounds.

Apple juice was prepared and treated using Lactococcus lactis fermentation combined with nisin‐assisted ohmic heating (60 V, 30 s). The combined treatment achieved complete inactivation of Bacillus cereus. This approach preserves juice quality while providing an energy‐efficient and sustainable processing method. ABSTRACT There is increasing demand for

Identification of essential amino acid residues in the nisin dehydratase NisB
Nisin is a posttranslationally-modified antimicrobial peptide that has the ability to induce its own biosynthesis. Serines and threonines in the modifiable core peptide part of precursor nisin are dehydrated to dehydroalanines and dehydrobutyrines by the

Expression of the lantibiotic mersacidin in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FZB42. [PDF]
UNLABELLED: Lantibiotics are small peptide antibiotics that contain the characteristic thioether amino acids lanthionine and methyllanthionine. As ribosomally synthesized peptides, lantibiotics possess biosynthetic gene clusters which contain the ...

Dysbiosis in the Pathogenesis of Atopic Dermatitis
ABSTRACT Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by epidermal barrier dysfunction and immune dysregulation. Recent research highlights cutaneous dysbiosis as a critical factor in its pathogenesis. In this review, we summarize the interplay between the skin microbiota and host immunity, contrasting the homeostatic ...
