Treatment of staphylococcal infections with cyclic lipopeptides [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2008 Daptomycin is the first of a new class of antibiotics, the cyclic lipopeptides, for which a novel mechanism of action is hypothesised. Owing to its mode of action, daptomycin is rapidly bactericidal without being bacteriolytic, is active against static- and growing-phase bacteria, and has a low resistance rate in vitro.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.The osmoadapted B. amyloliquefaciens VFS2 showed strong antifungal activities against Vicia faba‐pathogenic fungi and produced significant amounts of cLPs isoforms, indole‐3‐acetic acid, and siderophores under osmotic stress. These properties were associated with a Vicia faba Fusarium‐wilt disease biocontrol under saline and water‐deficient conditions.

Nonribosomal peptides, key biocontrol components for Pseudomonas fluorescens In5, isolated from a Greenlandic suppressive soil. [PDF]
, 2015 UnlabelledPotatoes are cultivated in southwest Greenland without the use of pesticides and with limited crop rotation. Despite the fact that plant-pathogenic fungi are present, no severe-disease outbreaks have yet been observed.

Daptomycin: A cyclic lipopeptide antimicrobial agent
Clinical Therapeutics, 2004 The aims of this article were: to summarize the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of daptomycin; to explore its safety profile; and to discuss its current and potential roles as an antimicrobial therapy.A literature search was conducted using the MEDLINE (1966-August 2004) and International Pharmaceutical Abstracts (1970-August 2004 ...

Novel mutations in the toll like receptor genes cause hyporesponsiveness to Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis infection [PDF]
, 2008 Toll like receptors play a central role in the recognition of pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). Mutations in TLR1, TLR2 and TLR4 genes may change the PAMP reorganization ability which causes altered responsiveness to the bacterial pathogens.

Scalable downstream method for the cyclic lipopetide jagaricin
Engineering in Life Sciences, 2022 Cyclic lipopeptides are substances with a high potential to act as antimicrobial agents. Jagaricin, produced by Janthinobacterium agaricidamnosum DSM 9628 and discovered in 2012, is a new member of this class with promising antifungal properties. However,
