Vesicular Delivery of the Antifungal Antibiotics of Lysobacter enzymogenes C3. [PDF]

Appl Environ Microbiol, 2018
Abstract Lysobacter enzymogenes C3 is a predatory strain of gram-negative gliding bacteria that produces antifungal antibiotics by the polyketide synthetic pathway. Outer membrane vesicles (OMV) are formed as a stress response and can deliver virulence factors to host cells.

Interspecies and Intraspecies Signals Synergistically Regulate Lysobacter enzymogenes Twitching Motility. [PDF]

Appl Environ Microbiol, 2019
The mechanism underlying bacterial twitching motility is an important research area because it is closely related to social and pathogenic behaviors. The mechanism mediating cell-to-cell perception of twitching motility is largely unknown.

Identification of atypical T4SS effector proteins mediating bacterial defense

mLife, 2023
To remain competitive, proteobacteria use various contact‐dependent weapon systems to defend against microbial competitors. The bacterial‐killing type IV secretion system (T4SS) is one such powerful weapon.

Biosynthesis of the Polycyclic System in the Antifungal HSAF and Analogues from Lysobacter enzymogenes. [PDF]

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl, 2018
AbstractThe biocontrol agent Lysobacter enzymogenes produces polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PoTeMs), including the antifungal HSAF. To elucidate the biosynthesis of the cyclic systems, we identified eleven HSAF precursors/analogues with zero, one, two, or three rings through heterologous expression of the HSAF gene cluster.
