Beneath the Bark: Molecular Determinants of Adaptation and Infection in Bacterial Pathogens of Woody Hosts

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Bacterial pathogens colonise woody hosts by integrating metabolic adaptation, effector‐mediated immune suppression, cell wall remodelling and EPS‐ and toxin‐supported persistence. ABSTRACT Bacterial pathogens of woody plants represent a pervasive yet underexplored threat to global agriculture and forestry, causing devastating diseases in fruit trees ...

Legionella hijacks the host Golgi-to-ER retrograde pathway for the association of Legionella-containing vacuole with the ER.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2021
Legionella pneumophila (L. pneumophila) is a gram-negative bacterium that replicates in a compartment that resembles the host endoplasmic reticulum (ER). To create its replicative niche, L.

Synthetic Ligands of Myeloid C‐Type Lectin Receptors

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Binding of ligands to C‐type lectin receptors (CLRs) on myeloid cells can lead to an array of cellular responses. Exploitation of these receptors for therapeutic purposes requires high‐affinity ligands. This review surveys the diversity of synthetic ligands of myeloid CLRs in the context of binding, signaling, and downstream effects, as well as ...

Cytotoxicity of extracellular Legionella pneumophila [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1994
Legionella pneumophila, the causative agent of Legionnaire's disease and Pontiac fever, is known to produce a cytopathic effect on macrophages. The capacity of extracellular L. pneumophila to mediate toxicity for guinea pig peritoneal macrophages and J774 mouse macrophages was assessed.

PHLPP is neither a Phosphatase nor a Tumor Suppressor

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 7, July 2026.
PH domain leucine‐rich repeat protein phosphatases (PHLPP) have been described as Akt phosphatases and tumor suppressors for more than 20 years. Recent evidence, however, indicates that they are pseudophosphatases that lost catalytic activity more than 450 Mya. This article argues that new hypotheses are urgently needed to reorient the field.

Legionella affects biofilm structural response to detachment upon shear stress increase

open access: yesBiofilm
Poor hydraulic management at water systems is associated with an increased risk of Legionnaires' disease caused by Legionella. Stagnation periods, followed by sudden water flow, can promote biofilm detachment and the release of Legionella into the bulk ...

The Establishment of an Indigenous‐Led Drinking Water Monitoring Program Leveraging qPCR and Metagenomics Testing in New Zealand

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 7, July 2026.
An Indigenous‐led monitoring program was established in the South Island of New Zealand to improve local drinking water safety. Advanced sampling techniques were used to identify public health risks and provide assurance that remedial interventions were effective.
