Expansion of KPC-producing klebsiella pneumoniae with various mgrB-mutations giving rise to colistin-resistance:the role of ISL3 on plasmids [PDF]
BACKGROUND: mcr-1 has been reported as first plasmid gene to confer colistin-resistance. In KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC-KP) isolates, however, colistin resistance is rapidly emerging through other mechanisms. This is frequently the result of

Advances in Double‐Stranded DNA Targeting Technologies
Double‐stranded DNA (dsDNA) plays a crucial role in genetic information storage and disease management, but its inherent stability limits access to internal bases. To overcome this challenge, various high‐specificity molecular targeting technologies have been developed to destabilize the DNA structure.

Heterogeneous hydrolytic features for OXA-48-like β-lactamases [PDF]
Objectives: Carbapenem-hydrolysing class D β-lactamases of the OXA-48 type are increasingly reported from Enterobacteriaceae. β-Lactamase OXA-48 hydrolyses penicillins very efficiently, but carbapenems only weakly and spares broad-spectrum ...

Sequencing of blaIMP-Carrying IncN2 Plasmids, and Comparative Genomics of IncN2 Plasmids Harboring Class 1 Integrons [PDF]
This work presents the complete nucleotide sequences of p0801-IMP from Klebsiella pneumoniae, p7121-IMP from K. oxytoca, and p17285-IMP from Citrobacter freundii, which are recovered from three different cases of nosocomial infection.

Microbial metabolites in tumor epigenetic regulation
The gut microbiome modulates tumor epigenetic regulation through bioactive metabolites derived from dietary substrates. Microbiota‐produced SCFAs, secondary BAs, one‐carbon metabolites, and tryptophan‐derived ligands regulate histone acetylation, DNA methylation, and chromatin remodeling via HDAC, DNMT, AhR, and metabolic cofactor‐dependent pathways ...
