Bacteriophage endolysins as a response to emerging foodborne pathogens [PDF]
, 2012 Continuous reports on foodborne outbreaks and increasing prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria call for the development of novel preservation techniques that assure the safety of food products.

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2025.ABSTRACT The evolving threat of new pathogen variants in the face of global environmental changes poses a risk to a sustainable crop production. Predicting and responding to how climate change affects plant‐pathosystems is challenging, as environment affects host–pathogen interactions from molecular to the community level, and with eco‐evolutionary ...

Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2023 Shigellosis remains a worldwide health problem due to the lack of vaccines and the emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains. Shigella (S.) dysenteriae has rigid peptidoglycan (PG), and its tight regulation of biosynthesis and remodeling is essential for bacterial integrity.

A proposed integrated approach for the preclinical evaluation of phage therapy in Pseudomonas infections [PDF]
, 2016 Bacteriophage therapy is currently resurging as a potential complement/alternative to antibiotic treatment. However, preclinical evaluation lacks streamlined approaches.

Modulation of the lytic apparatus by the FtsEX complex within the bacterial division machinery
FEBS Letters, Volume 598, Issue 23, Page 2836-2851, December 2024.Conformational changes involved in the mechano‐transmission activation of the lytic machinery by FtsEX. This model is based on the Gram‐negative bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa, highlighting the EnvC protein that facilitates the activation of the lytic enzyme AmiB during cell division.

mBioPseudomonas aeruginosa encodes the beta-lactamase AmpC, which promotes resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics. Expression of ampC is induced by anhydro-muropeptides (AMPs) released from the peptidoglycan (PG) cell wall upon beta-lactam treatment. AmpC can

Characterization of IsaA and SceD, Two Putative Lytic Transglycosylases of Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2007 ABSTRACT Bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan is a dynamic structure requiring hydrolysis to allow cell wall growth and division. Staphylococcus aureus has many known and putative peptidoglycan hydrolases, including two likely lytic transglycosylases. These two proteins, IsaA and SceD, were both found to have

Cell wall peptidoglycan in Mycobacterium tuberculosis: An Achilles’ heel for the TB-causing pathogen [PDF]
, 2019 Tuberculosis (TB), caused by the intracellular pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis, remains one of the leading causes of mortality across the world. There is an urgent requirement to build a robust arsenal of effective antimicrobials, targeting novel ...

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 122, Issue 5, Page 797-818, November 2024.Salmonella encodes two peptidoglycan synthases, PBP3 and PBP3SAL, which can promote cell division independently. This study shows by in vivo cross‐linking and proteomics that PBP3 and PBP3SAL do not interact in the division complex and that ~40 proteins may associate direct or indirectly to these enzymes, including expected divisome components and new ...

Brucella abortus Encodes an Active Rhomboid Protease: Proteome Response after Rhomboid Gene Deletion
Microorganisms, 2022 Rhomboids are intramembrane serine proteases highly conserved in the three domains of life. Their key roles in eukaryotes are well understood but their contribution to bacterial physiology is still poorly characterized.
