New Linear Lipopeptides Produced by Pseudomonas cichorii SF1-54 Are Involved in Virulence, Swarming Motility, and Biofilm Formation

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2013
Pseudomonas cichorii is the causal agent of lettuce midrib rot, characterized by a dark-brown to green-black discoloration of the midrib. Formation of necrotic lesions by several plant-pathogenic pseudomonads is associated with production of phytotoxic ...

Sustainable Surfactin Production by Bacillus subtilis Using Crude Glycerol from Different Wastes

Molecules, 2021
Most biosurfactants are obtained using costly culture media and purification processes, which limits their wider industrial use. Sustainability of their production processes can be achieved, in part, by using cheap substrates found among agricultural and

Mitophagy and Bip–PERK–eIF2α–ATF4 Axis‐Mediated ER Stress Mediate Miriplatin‐Loaded Liposome's Anti‐Colorectal Cancer Action

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
LMPt enters the cell mainly through caveolin‐mediated endocytosis, and then fuses with endosomes and lysosomes to deliver MPt to mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum to induce mitophagy based on the fusion of lysosomes and mitochondria, and endoplasmic reticulum stress and subsequent apoptosis via the Bip–PERK–eIF2α–ATF4 axis to exert an anti ...

A Novel Cell‐Penetrating Lipopeptide for DNA Binding, Self‐Assembly, and Delivery Into HeLa and Pluripotent Stem Cells

Journal of Peptide Science, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
A lipopeptide is designed that contains an epitope from simian virus T‐antigen (SV40T, PKKKRKV) conjugated to an N‐terminal palmitoyl (C16‐) moiety, which acts as a cell‐penetrating lipopeptide, with additional aggregation propensity conferred by the lipid chain. The lipopeptide enables DNA delivery into the cytoplasm and nucleus.

Advancements and Challenges in the Production of Biosurfactants: A Path Toward Sustainable Surfactant Alternatives

ChemBioEng Reviews, Volume 13, Issue 1, February 2026.
Microorganisms generate versatile biosurfactants with a wide range of uses. Although cost issues still exist, industrial interest is growing because to the advantages of sustainability, which are enhanced by genetic engineering; life cycle evaluation is crucial for scalable, environmentally responsible production.
