Streptococcus pneumoniae colonizes the mucin-rich environment of the nasopharynx. As colonization may be the first stage of infection, investigation was carried out as to whether the pneumococcus could utilize mucin as a source of nutrient and whether ...

Liquid atmospheric pressure matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization (LAP‐MALDI) mass spectrometry (MS) provides multiplexed biotyping of microbial cultures using a fast and simple workflow. This is demonstrated for clinically relevant bacteria, resulting in accurate antimicrobial resistance (AMR) detection, speciation by MS/MS sequencing and ...

Artificial Intelligence‐Guided Phenotypic Drug Repurposing Against Streptococcus pneumoniae
Integrated artificial intelligence (AI) ensembles identify highly potent repurposed drugs against Streptococcus pneumoniae. Prospective virtual screening of 6747 drugs uncovers nine active candidates, including thiostrepton. This drug exhibits low picomolar potency and bypasses established resistance in multidrug‐resistant strains, demonstrating an ...

pH‐Driven Two‐Stage Conformational Switching Activates an Acid‐Responsive Chaperone
AchC is an ATP‐independent, pH‐responsive chaperone. AchC functions as a molecular switch, sensing pH changes and undergoing a two‐stage conformational transition: C‐terminal extension (colored in yellow) loosening at mild pH 4.0–5.5 and monomerization at strong acidic pH 3.0.

Contribution of Pili of S. Pneumoniae in the Onset of Meningitis
Bacterial meningitis is a devastating worldwide disease. Half of the survivors of meningitis remain with permanent neurological sequelae. The pathogenesis of meningitis is based on a complex host-pathogen interaction.

A Microcapsule‐Integrated smRandom‐seq Platform Enables Fixation‐Free Single Microbe RNA Sequencing
We developed a microcapsule‐integrated high‐throughput fixation‐free single‐microbe RNA‐seq workflow in which microbes are encapsulated in aqueous two‐phase microcapsules for physical confinement of nucleic acids. This platform enables co‐encapsulation with barcoded beads for sequencing and reveals that fixation‐free processing enhances transcriptomic ...

Engineered macrophages programmed in situ by LNP‐delivered IL‐6/4 fusion and LL37 mRNAs simultaneously dampen cytokine storm, promote M2‐like repair, and enhance direct bacterial killing in sepsis. This combinatorial strategy restores T cell and macrophage function, lowers organ bacterial burden, and improves survival, highlighting a precision, host ...
