A Portable Colorimetric Device for Rapid Bacterial Detection with Cleavable Functional Nucleic Acid Probes for A Common Bacterial Endoribonuclease

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A simple, rapid, and portable gold‐coated filter tip‐based assay (GFTA) is developed for bacterial detection. The GFTA leverages cleavable functional nucleic acid probes as molecular recognition elements to target RNase H2, a highly conserved bacterial endoribonuclease, enabling sensitive and specific colorimetric detection of bacterial pathogens ...

Importance of SigB for Listeria monocytogenes static and continuous flow biofilm formation and disinfectant resistance

open access: yes, 2010
Listeria monocytogenes is a food-borne pathogen that is able to form biofilms in food processing facilities. Biofilms are generally more resistant to antimicrobial agents, making it difficult to eradicate them during cleanup procedures. So far, little is

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.
