Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a prominent opportunistic pathogen whose virulence is closely linked to its Type III Secretion System (T3SS), a specialized apparatus that injects effector proteins into host cells. T3SS chaperones are essential for stabilizing, delivering, and regulating T3SS expression.

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.bymBDZ accelerates early regrowth of persister‐derived E. coli and potentiates antibiotic killing. Its activity requires the MdtL–DcrB axis and is associated with envelope‐linked transport changes that increase intracellular small‐molecule exposure during recovery, thereby enhancing clearance in early treatment windows. ABSTRACT Persister cells survive

Bacterial type I toxin-antitoxin systems [PDF]
RNA Biology, 2012 Toxin-antitoxin (TA) loci encode two-component systems that consist of a stable "toxin" whose ectopic overexpression either kills cells or confers growth stasis, and an unstable "antitoxin". TA systems have been initially discovered on plasmids, where they confer stability of maintenance through post-segregational killing (PSK). Plasmid loss results in

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Background and Aims Cirrhosis favours infections that can lead to liver decompensation and death. Some of these infections can be prevented by vaccination. This study aimed to evaluate the immune response after HBV, pneumococcal, diphtheria, and tetanus vaccination in cirrhotic patients.

Viable but Nonculturable State, a Survival Strategy for Salmonella in Aquatic Environments
Water and Environment Journal, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 183-202, May 2026.Transition of Salmonella from a culturable state to a viable but nonculturable state under various environmental stresses and current methods for detecting viable Salmonella in environmental samples. ABSTRACT In the relentless battle for survival, Salmonella has evolved mechanisms to withstand harsh conditions such as extreme temperatures, fluctuating ...

Phage ϕC2 mediates transduction of Tn6215, encoding erythromycin resistance, between Clostridium difficile strains [PDF]
, 2013 UNLABELLED: In this work, we show that Clostridium difficile phage ϕC2 transduces erm(B), which confers erythromycin resistance, from a donor to a recipient strain at a frequency of 10(-6) per PFU.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 14, 10 April 2026.Antimicrobial peptide (AMP)‐loaded nanocarriers provide a multifunctional strategy to combat drug‐resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. By enhancing intracellular delivery, bypassing efflux pumps, and disrupting bacterial membranes, this platform restores phagolysosome fusion and macrophage function.

Identification and characterisation of toxin-antitoxin systems (TA) in Burkholderia pseudomallei [PDF]
, 2013 The aim of this study was to identify and characterise type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems in Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causative agent of the human disease melioidosis. 8 putative TA systems were identified within the genome of B. pseudomallei

Stabilization of the Virulence Plasmid pSLT of Salmonella Typhimurium by Three Maintenance Systems and Its Evaluation by Using a New Stability Test [PDF]
, 2016 Certain Salmonella enterica serovars belonging to subspecies I carry low-copy-number virulence plasmids of variable size (50–90 kb). All of these plasmids share the spv operon, which is important for systemic infection.
