<i>Enterococcus faecalis</i> alters antibiotic susceptibility in <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> mixed species biofilms Open
SUMMARY Bacterial infections often occur in polymicrobial biofilms where nutrient limitation and interspecies interactions can profoundly shape microbial physiology. Enterococcus faecalis can antagonize Pseudomonas aeruginosa growth under …

Adaptation of <i>Enterococcus faecalis</i> to intestinal mucus revealed by a human colonic organoid model Open
The human gastrointestinal tract hosts a diverse population of microorganisms that have a significant impact on host health. Among this population, Enterococcus faecalis ( Ef ) represents a common member of intestinal microbiota colonizing…

<i>Pantoea ananatis</i> , a plant growth stimulating bacterium, and its metabolites isolated from <i>Hydrocotyle umbellata</i> (dollarweed) Open
A bacterium growing on infected leaves of Hydrocotyle umbellata, commonly known as dollarweed, was isolated and identified as Pantoea ananatis. An ethyl acetate extract of tryptic soy broth (TSB) liquid culture filtrate of th…

A Staphylococcal Glucosaminidase Drives Inflammatory Responses by Processing Peptidoglycan Chains to Physiological Lengths Open
The peptidoglycan of Staphylococcus aureus is a critical cell envelope constituent and virulence factor that subverts host immune defenses and provides protection against environmental stressors. Peptidoglycan chains of the S. aureus cell …

The Proteomic and Transcriptomic Landscapes Altered by Rgg2/3 Activity in Streptococcus pyogenes Open
Streptococcus pyogenes causes several important human diseases. This study evaluates how the induction or disruption of a cell-cell communication system alters S. pyogenes ’s gene expression and, in extreme conditions, its physiology.

The proteomic and transcriptomic landscapes altered by Rgg2/3 activity in <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i> Open
Streptococcus pyogenes , otherwise known as Group A Streptococcus (GAS), is an important and highly adaptable human pathogen with the ability to cause both superficial and severe diseases. Understanding how S. pyogenes senses and responds …

The context of the ribosome binding site in mRNAs defines specificity of action of kasugamycin, an inhibitor of translation initiation Open
Significance Several antibiotics targeting the large ribosomal subunit interfere with translation in a context-specific manner, preventing ribosomes from polymerizing specific amino acid sequences. Here, we reveal kasugamycin as a small ri…
