Rhizobacteria‐Induced Systemic Priming Against Fungal Pathogens Involves Hydroxycinnamic Acid Amides
ABSTRACT The rhizosphere, a narrow region of soil surrounding roots, contains diverse microorganisms with a composition that is distinct from the surrounding soil. Some rhizosphere bacteria can trigger a heightened state of immunity in the whole plant, termed Induced Systemic Resistance (ISR).

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

This show the biodegradation of spent lubricating oil by Bacillus sp. and a marine bacterial consortium. The consortium showed higher growth, biosurfactant production and oil removal efficiency than the isolated strain, highlighting its potential for bioremediation ABSTRACT Spent automotive lubricating oil contains complex hydrocarbons and heavy metals,

Nanostructure and Collagen‐Stimulating Activity of Cationic Pentapeptide Lipopeptides
The self‐assembly in aqueous solutions, cytocompatibility and collagen production of lipopeptide C16–KTTKS (C16: hexadecyl) and a variant with arginine substitution for lysine, C16–RTTRS, are compared. ABSTRACT The self‐assembly in aqueous solutions, cytocompatibility, and collagen production of lipopeptide C16–KTTKS and a variant with arginine ...

This review highlights biocatalytic prenylation as a versatile strategy for tailoring the functional properties of peptides and proteins. By comparing branched isoprenoids with linear lipids, we illustrate how specific prenyl architectures modulate the behaviors of lipidated proteins within membrane environments.
