A Chirality‐Converted Bacteriolytic Dodecapeptide Regulates Vibrio‐Induced Polymicrobial Infection and Ameliorates Invasion‐Associated Gut Microbiota Disequilibrium
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Multidrug‐resistant Vibrio infections are rising rapidly and threaten coastal populations worldwide. This study introduces D‐zp37, a chirality‐engineered antimicrobial peptide with exceptional potency against resistant Vibrio species. D‐zp37 kills planktonic cells, blocks mixed‐species biofilms, disrupts essential bacterial stress responses, and shows ...Ping Zeng, Qipeng Cheng, Xiaoxu Zhang, Honglan Wang, Jinghan Zhang, Xinyi Ding, Pengfei Zhang, Lanhua Yi, Kwok‐Yin Wong, Kin‐Fai Chan, Sheng Chen, Sharon Shui Yee Leung +11 morewiley +1 more sourceGac two-component system in Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci is required for virulence but not for hypersensitive reaction
, 2008 Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci 6605 causes wildfire disease on host tobacco plants. To investigate the regulatory mechanism of the expression of virulence, Gac two-Component system-defective mutants, Delta gacA and Delta gacS, and a double mutant, Delta Ichinose, Yuki, Marutani, Mizuri, Ogawa, Yujiro, Yoshishige, Inagaki, Toyoda, Kazuhiro, Shiraishi, Tomonori, Taguchi, Fumiko, Hossain, Mijan Md. +7 morecore +1 more sourceThe Host Cell Factor Phosphatase‐2A Subunit PR130 Restricts Replication of Herpes Simplex Virus Type‐1
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Molecular, genetic, virological, and biochemical analysis in combination with global proteome and phosphoproteome profiling and functional assays were applied to study the role of PR130 in the context of HSV‐1 replication. The observations reveal that host‐intrinsic mechanisms regulate HSV‐1 replication and highlight PR130 as a susceptibility factor of Johannes Jungwirth, Christoph F.

The chromosome of O157 consists of 4.1 Mb backbone sequences shared by benign E.Nougayrède, Jean-Philippe, Tashiro, Kousuke, Ogura, Y, Nakayama, K, Terajima, Jun, Oswald, Eric, Ogura, Yoshitoshi, Tobe, T, Hayashi, T, Ooka, T, Asadulghani, -, Kuhara, Satoru, Watanabe, Haruo, Kurokawa, Ken, Tashiro, K, Watanabe, H, Asadulghani, XX, Ooka, Tadasuke, Kurokawa, K, Nakayama, Keisuke, Hayashi, Tetsuya, Kuhara, S, Tobe, Toru, Terajima, J +23 morecore +1 more sourceEngineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...Yuting Li, Yunjie Lu, Ziyan Huang, Jianjiang Chen, Yanbin Liu, Lei Qin, Chao Wang, Yumin Wu +7 morewiley +1 more sourceEvolutionary trade-offs underlie the multi-faceted virulence of Staphylococcus aureus
, 2015 Date of Acceptance: 20/07/2015Bacterial virulence is a multifaceted trait where the interactions between pathogen and host factors affect the severity and outcome of the infection. Toxin secretion is central to the biology of many bacterial pathogens and Williams, Barnabas, Uhlemann, Anne-Catrin, Edward Feil, Recker, Mario, Maisem Laabei (311431), Lowy, FD, Clarke, SR, Janina Dordel (250569), Janina Dordel, Votintseva, Antonina A., Lowy, Franklin D., Votintseva, AA, Austin, ED, Wilson, Daniel J, Bowden, Rory, Wilson, Daniel J., Daniel J.
