Plasmid-borne macrolide resistance in Micrococcus luteus a aThe GenBank accession number for the sequence reported in this paper is AF462611. [PDF]

Microbiology, 2002
A plasmid designated pMEC2 which confers resistance to erythromycin, other macrolides, and lincomycin was detected in Micrococcus luteus strain MAW843 isolated from human skin. Curing of this approximately 4.2 kb plasmid from the host organism resulted in erythromycin sensitivity of the strain. Introduction of pMEC2 into a different M.

Pharmacological Potential and Bioactive Components of Wild Anatolian Sage (Salvia aethiopis L.)

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
The ethanol extract of Salvia aethiopis, collected from Karaman, was found to be rich in phenolic compounds through LC–MS/MS analysis, and it demonstrated potent antibacterial effects, particularly against Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus, and Klebsiella pneumoniae, as well as a dose‐dependent cytotoxic effect on H‐460 lung cancer cells. These

Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus Predation in Dual-Species Biofilms of E. coli Prey and M. luteus Decoys [PDF]

arXiv, 2010
Biofilms are matrix-enclosed microbial communities that grow at interfaces. They exhibit significant phenotypic changes that render them resistant to many antibacterial agents that can kill their free-swimming counterparts. Biofilms in the environment can consist of either a single or multiple microbial species.

Peptides From Animal and Fishery Byproducts: Uplifting the Functionality of Fifth Quarter

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
Recovery of peptide reduces pollution, increases return, and functionality of products. Meat byproducts and processing techniques raise the sustainability of the meat industry. These peptides can also be used as active components of the packaging system. Umami peptides are used as taste enhancers for the development of new products.

Chemical structure and antioxidant activity of a new exopolysaccharide produced from Micrococcus luteus

Journal of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, 2014
An exopolysaccharide (EPS) reaching a maximum of 13 g/L was isolated from Micrococcus luteus by ethanol precipitation. The crude EPS was purified by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and Sephacryl S-200, affording a polysaccharide active fraction (AEP ...

Some Biological Applications and Mechanistic Insights of Benzaldehyde‐Substituted Thiosemicarbazones and Their Metal Complexes: A Review

Natural Sciences, Volume 5, Issue 1-2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Thiosemicarbazones (TSCs) and their metal complexes have been subjected to study over several decades. Their medicinal importance as anticancer, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and antidiabetic has been explored. Continual efforts have been made toward activity enhancement that can be achieved by making suitable structural alterations or by ...

Adaptive response orMicrococcus luteusto alkylating chemlcals

Nucleic Acids Research, 1984
Wild type M. luteus cells have been adapted by a step-wise treatment with sub-lethal concentrations of MNNG. The adapted cells exhibit 5.7 fold increased resistance to the killing effects of the mutagen and a simultaneous efficient removal of various base modifications present in cellular DNA.

Mining the UniProtKB/Swiss‐Prot database for antimicrobial peptides

Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract The ever‐growing global health threat of antibiotic resistance is compelling researchers to explore alternatives to conventional antibiotics. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are emerging as a promising solution to fill this need. Naturally occurring AMPs are produced by all forms of life as part of the innate immune system.

Feed containing heat‐killed lactic acid bacteria as a single species or multispecies combination improves feeding, defense, and stress in coho salmon

Physiological Reports, Volume 13, Issue 7, April 2025.
Abstract There are few reports examining the effects of simultaneous administration of multiple killed lactic acid bacteria with different physiological properties to fish. In this study, we fed three heat‐sterilized lactic acid bacteria, Lactobacillus delbrueckii (Lac‐b‐d), Leuconostoc mesenteroides (Leu‐m), and Lactococcus lactis (Lac‐c‐l), either ...

Turning Waste into Treasure: Functionalized Biomass‐Derived Carbon Dots for Superselective Visualization and Eradication of Gram‐Positive Bacteria

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 11, March 20, 2025.
This research develops a type of purple rice lixivium‐derived biomass carbon dots (BCDs), which present excellent affinity to Gram‐positive bacteria due to the presence of WGA‐like residues. Inspired by this finding, this research further fabricates FITC‐labeled and PpIX‐modified BCDs to achieve superselective visualization and eradication of Gram ...
