The Interplay of Multivalence and Amphiphilicity in Antimicrobial Bottle Brush Copolymers
Antimicrobial polymers based on tert‐butyl acrylamide and aminoethyl acrylamide are varied in composition and architecture (bottle brush vs. linear copolymers). Linear copolymers show drastically increased selectivities, which is likely a result of differing self‐assembly behavior, as bottle brushes form strong intramolecular associations limiting ...

Listeria monocytogenes—Can We Reduce or Eliminate It From Food Commodities?
Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen responsible for listeriosis. Traditional control methods include heat treatment, high‐pressure processing, irradiation, and acidification, all aimed at reducing bacterial load in foods. Emerging strategies include gene expression, CRISPR‐Cas9, bacteriophage, competitive exclusion via beneficial microbes ...

Abstract High‐temperature requirement A (HtrA) proteases are a conserved family of serine proteases central to protein quality control and bacterial virulence. While Gram‐negative and human HtrAs are structurally well studied, Gram‐positive homologs remain essentially uncharacterized.
