The effect of permethrin cream on staphylococcal infections and studies on methicillin sensitive and resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria are a serious threat to human health. With increasing antibiotic resistance in common human pathogens, fewer antibiotics remain effective.

A sequential co-extraction method for DNA, RNA and protein recovery from soil for future system-based approaches [PDF]
A co-extraction protocol that sequentially isolates core biopolymer fractions (DNA, RNA, protein) from edaphic microbial communities is presented. In order to confirm compatibility with downstream analyses, bacterial T-RFLP profiles were generated from

Muraymycins are antibacterial natural products from Streptomyces spp. that inhibit translocase I (MraY), which is involved in cell wall biosynthesis. Structurally, muraymycins consist of a 5′-C-glycyluridine (GlyU) appended to a 5″-amino-5″-deoxyribose ...

Investigating the Development of Alcohol Tolerance in the ESKAPE Pathogens [PDF]
Antiseptics and disinfectants are used globally to kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria to prevent infection. Considering the well-documented development of antibiotic resistance, the potential for evolved tolerance to alcohol-based antimicrobial ...

Theoretical Studies on Mechanism of Inactivation of Kanamycin A by 4′-O-Nucleotidyltransferase
This work is focused on mechanistic studies of the transfer of an adenylyl group (Adenoside-5′-monophosfate) from adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) to a OH-4′ hydroxyl group of an antibiotic.

Phenotypic Characterization of PNPase Mutation and Overexpression in C. elegans [PDF]
PNPase, polynucleotide phosphorylase, is a multifunctional exoribonuclease protein with 3` terminal oligonucleotide polymerase activity. Coded by the PNPT1 gene, the protein is associated with mitochondrial homeostasis and functions as a possible target ...
