Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A modular strategy was developed to synthesize tri‐, hexa‐, and nona‐saccharides representing repeating units of the conserved O‐polysaccharide backbone of Salmonella. Conjugates of these glycans to bacteriophage Qβ induced strong IgG responses in mice and rabbits. Antibodies elicited recognized native O‐polysaccharides and conferred protection against

Multiple facets of bacterial porins [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2001 Porins form channels allowing the transport of molecules across lipid bilayer membranes. Their structure, location and large number on the bacterial surface lend them multiple functions. Porin loops are potential targets for adhesion to other cells and binding of bactericidal compounds to the surface of Gram-negative bacteria.

Asymmetric conductivity of engineered porins [PDF]
Protein Engineering, Design and Selection, 2002 Positively charged peptide segments of 16 and 18 residues were inserted at a periplasmic turn of the porin from Rhodobacter blasticus in order to form an electric field-dependent plug. The X-ray diffraction analysis of a mutant confirmed that the structure of the porin had remained intact and that the insert was mobile.

Fluoroquinolone-Transition Metal Complexes: A Strategy to Overcome Bacterial Resistance
Microorganisms, 2021 Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are antibiotics widely used in the clinical practice due to their large spectrum of action against Gram-negative and some Gram-positive bacteria.

Dynamic rearrangement of nucleoporins during fungal "open" mitosis [PDF]
, 2008 Mitosis in animals starts with the disassembly of the nuclear pore complexes and the breakdown of the nuclear envelope. In contrast to many fungi, the corn smut fungus Ustilago maydis also removes the nuclear envelope.

Socialization of Providencia stuartii Enables Resistance to Environmental Insults
Microorganisms, 2022 Providencia stuartii is a highly social pathogen responsible for nosocomial chronic urinary tract infections. The bacterium indeed forms floating communities of cells (FCC) besides and prior-to canonical surface-attached biofilms (SAB).
