Mashup Score: 1The evolution of colistin resistance increases bacterial resistance to host antimicrobial peptides and virulence - 11 month(s) ago
Resistance genes that spread as a result of the use of an antimicrobial peptide (colistin) in agriculture (MCR) protect bacteria against key components of human and animal immune systems.

Mashup Score: 0Early midcell localization of Escherichia coli PBP4 supports the function of peptidoglycan amidases - 2 year(s) ago
Author summary Peptidoglycan biosynthesis is a major target for antibacterials. The covalently closed peptidoglycan mesh, called sacculus, protects the bacterium from lysis due to its turgor. Sacculus growth is facilitated by the balanced activities of synthases and hydrolases, and disturbing this balance leads to cell lysis and bacterial death. Because of the large number and possible redundant…

Author summary Escherichia coli is a human gut commensal but also a main opportunistic pathogen responsible for extra-intestinal infections such as bloodstream infections. These infections are particularly severe and have been increasing in frequency. Furthermore, E. coli has become more resistant to antibiotics, rendering treatment difficult. To decipher whether bacterial genetic traits are…

Mashup Score: 0Assembly dynamics of FtsZ and DamX during infection-related filamentation and division in uropathogenic E. coli - Nature Communications - 2 year(s) ago
A subset of uropathogenic Escherichia coli are able to halt division and grow into highly filamentous cells during infection of bladder epithelial cells. Here, authors aim to determine the mechanism, and understand the dynamics of cell division machinery during infection-related filamentation.
