Structure of the lipopeptide antibiotic tsushimycin

Acta Crystallographica Section D Biological Crystallography, 2005
The amphomycin derivative tsushimycin has been crystallized and its structure determined at 1.0 A resolution. The asymmetric unit contains 12 molecules and with 1300 independent atoms this structure is one of the largest solved using ab initio direct methods.

Molecular mechanism of lipopeptide presentation by CD1a.

, 2005
CD1a is expressed on Langerhans cells (LCs) and dendritic cells (DCs), where it mediates T cell recognition of glycolipid and lipopeptide antigens that contain either one or two alkyl chains.

Lichenysin Production by Bacillus licheniformis Food Isolates and Toxicity to Human Cells

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Bacillus licheniformis can cause foodborne intoxication due to the production of the surfactant lichenysin. The aim of this study was to measure the production of lichenysin by food isolates of B.

Resistant Peanut Genotype Reprograms Rhizosphere Metabolism to Enhance Bacterial Wilt Suppression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The resistant peanut genotype selectively recruits beneficial bacteria, which coincides with the activation of salicylic acid (SA)‐dependent systemic acquired resistance (SAR) against Ralstonia solanacearum. Keystone rhizosphere metabolites are positively correlated with both beneficial microbiome assembly and SAR gene expression.

Diversity and functional analysis of LuxR-type transcriptional regulators of cyclic lipopeptide biosynthesis in Pseudomonas fluorescens

, 2009
Cyclic lipopeptides (CLPs) are produced by many Pseudomonas species and have several biological functions, including a role in surface motility, biofilm formation, virulence, and antimicrobial activity.

Exploitation and engineering of lipopeptide biosynthesis in myxobacteria [PDF]

, 2017
To gain a deep understanding of the lipopeptide biosynthesis in myxobacteria, a comprehensive screening of myxobacterial genomes was initially carried out in the course of this thesis leading to the identification and characterization of novel ...

Fungal Antimicrobial Resistance: Mechanisms, Drivers, and Global Clinical Burden

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungal antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern for world health caused by an increase in multidrug‐resistant infections, an increase in environmental reservoirs, and the ineffectiveness of current antifungal treatments. Fungal infections continue to be largely excluded from AMR initiatives while causing over 1.6 million deaths ...
