Structural variations of the cell wall precursor lipid II in Gram-positive bacteria — Impact on binding and efficacy of antimicrobial peptides [PDF]
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are natural antibiotics produced by virtually all living organisms. Typically, AMPs are cationic and amphiphilic and first contacts with target microbes involve interactions with negatively charged components of the cell ...

A self‐assembling, aggregation‐enhanced tetrahedral DNA nanostructure (tFNA), termed TACs, enables localized accumulation and sustained release of ceftriaxone while co‐delivering antisense oligonucleotides that silence mecA, reduce PBP2a expression, and restore β‐lactam susceptibility in MRSA.

Concomitant induction of the cell surface expression of Ia determinants and accessory cell function by a murine macrophage tumor cell line. [PDF]
This study demonstrates that an uncharacterized soluble factor produced in concanavalin A-induced rat spleen cell suspensions has the capacity to induce the increased expression of cell surface H-2K and H-2D molecules and the expression of I-region gene ...

Cross‐linked protein crystals are introduced as a novel class of nontraditional luminescent materials (NLMs) exhibiting tunable full‐color photoluminescence. Three polymorphic lysozyme crystals establish a clear, definitive structure–emission relationship, revealing that emission originates from intermolecular through‐space interactions (TSI).

Alternate Germinants of C. Difficile, a Leading Hospital Pathogen
Clostridium difficile infections (CDI) are the leading nosocomial infections worldwide. Humans are asymptomatic carriers of C. difficile spores in the intestinal tract. The process known as germination occurs when otherwise harmless C.
