Molecular basis of antibiotic sensing by the TetR family regulator CecR – a structural perspective
Escherichia coli CecR, a member of the TetR family regulators, senses selected antibiotics and activates the expression of a putative drug efflux pump. Although present in many pathogenic Enterobacteriales strains, CecR remains poorly characterized. We present the first CecR crystal structure, which reveals a unique tunnel‐like ligand‐binding cavity ...

Shikimate pathway disruption in yeast induces metabolite self‐assembly into toxic aggregates
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, shikimate pathway disruption induces toxic metabolite assemblies. Deleting ARO4 plus phenylalanine (Phe) feeding causes Phenylalanine accumulation, lowers ARO3 activity, and triggers amyloid‐like fibril formation. Deleting ARO3 plus tyrosine (Tyr) feeding leads to Tyrosine buildup and similar fibril assembly.

C57BL/6 mice from Charles River Laboratories (CR) have enhanced mucosal immune action relative to C57BL/6 mice from Jackson Laboratories (JAX). CR mice are more susceptible to severe DSS‐induced colitis than JAX mice. Co‐housing transfers colitis susceptibility from CR mice to JAX mice.

Reduction of trimethylamine N-oxide to trimethylamine by the human gut microbiota: supporting evidence for ‘metabolic retroversion’ [PDF]
Dietary sources of methylamines such as choline, trimethylamine (TMA), trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), phosphatidylcholine (PC) and carnitine are present in a number of foodstuffs, including meat, fish, nuts and eggs.
