The bacterial phosphotransferase system-mediated rifampicin phosphorylation: ancestral links to rifampicin-inactivating enzyme

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionThe bacterial phosphotransferase system (PTS) transports and phosphorylates sugars. Some PTS proteins share structural motifs with rifampicin phosphotransferases (RPHs), which inactivate rifampicin by phosphorylation.

Molecular evolution of rifampicin resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae

Rifampicin resistance has arisen in several different species of bacteria because of alterations to one or more regions in the target of the antibiotic, the beta-subunit of RNA polymerase encoded by rpoB, Nucleotide sequence analysis of a 270 bp fragment

A nanobiotechnological approach to control non‐persistent aphid‐transmitted plant viruses, based on functionalized virus‐like particles

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 3, November 2026.
A potyvirus‐derived virus‐like nanoparticle (VLP) interferes in the transmission by aphids of the non‐circulative plant viruses turnip mosaic virus (TuMV, Potyvirus), zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV, Potyvirus), and cucumber mosaic virus (CMV, Cucumovirus) is also observed. The construct, that consisted of a fusion between a modified TuMV HC‐Pro and

The Paediatric BCG Vaccine Century: From Historical Success to Future Innovations

Acta Paediatrica, Volume 115, Issue 11, Page 2433-2440, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The tuberculosis (TB) vaccine, Bacille‐Calmette‐Guérin (BCG), protects infants against severe forms of primary TB. Yet, it does not protect against pulmonary reactivation TB in adults. Methods A literature review was conducted between 1st January and 28th February 2025 using PubMed, Google Scholar and reports of the World Health ...

Knocking Out Two Polyphenol Oxidase Genes Significantly Improves Recombinant Protein Purification in Nicotiana benthamiana

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 5588-5596, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Efficient purification remains a key technical challenge affecting the recovery efficiency of recombinant proteins in plant‐based systems. Complex metabolites, particularly polyphenols, often cause recombinant protein aggregation during purification.

Tonoplast‐Localized ABCC Transporters Enhance Heterologous Production of the Antidiabetic Montbretin A and Its Analogues in Nicotiana benthamiana

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 5991-6006, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The plant‐derived specialized metabolite montbretin A (MbA) is under development as an improved treatment for Type 2 diabetes, a worldwide epidemic. MbA is an acylated flavonol glycoside so far only found in small amounts in montbretia (Crocosmia × crocosmiiflora) corms.

A Lambda Red Recombinase‐Assisted CRISPR/Cas9 System for Efficient and Precise Genome Editing in Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 6010-6027, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a powerful delivery tool for plant genetic transformation and a pivotal platform for agricultural biotechnology. However, laboratory strains of Agrobacterium have remained genetically unoptimized for decades, with genome engineering hindered by inefficient, endogenous homologous recombination systems.
