One‐Step Curcumin‐Mediated Multiphoton Lithography for Bioactive 3D Scaffolds
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Curcumin‐mediated multiphoton lithography enables one‐step fabrication of highly architected complex gelatin methacryloyl scaffolds by exploiting curcumin as a multifunctional bioactive photoinitiator. The resulting 3D structures support mesenchymal stem cell adhesion, proliferation, and migration, while exhibiting dual antibacterial activity through ...

Peptidoglycan in walls of Butyribacterium rettgeri [PDF]
Biochemistry, 1969 The wall peptidoglycan in Butyribacterium rettgeri is composed of Nα-(L-seryl-γ-D-glutamyl)-L-ornithyl-D-alanine subunits. The peptide subunits are cross-linked by means of a D-lysine or a D-ornithine residue, extending from the α-carboxyl group of the glutamic acid of one peptide subunit, to which D-lysine is linked through its є-amino group or D ...

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Recent Advances in Ferrite‐Based Materials for Biomedical Applications: A Comprehensive Review
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Ferrite nanoplatforms are presented as tunable biomedical materials in which synthesis control, cation engineering, defect/morphology regulation, and surface functionalization govern structure–property–bioactivity relationships. These design strategies enable multifunctional applications including MRI contrast, magnetic hyperthermia, targeted drug ...

Genetics of Peptidoglycan Biosynthesis
Microbiology Spectrum, 2014 ABSTRACT The complex cell envelope is a hallmark of mycobacteria and is anchored by the peptidoglycan layer, which is similar to that of Escherichia coli and a number of other bacteria but with modifications to the monomeric units and other structural complexities that are likely related to a role for the ...
