This study identified tyrosine phosphoprotein A (TypA) as a repressor that restricts expression of the T3SS in P. aeruginosa and reveals a novel molecular mechanism by which P. aeruginosa regulates T3SS.

Background:
Zoonotic diseases are illnesses that humans can contract from animals and vice versa. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic organism that makes treating infections challenging, particularly in individuals with underlying medical conditions and those with impaired immune systems. The increasing number o...

It is demonstrated that R-pyocins can be leveraged not merely as conventional biocides, but as precise selective forces to drive an evolutionary “checkmate” strategy, establishing a framework for using R-pyocins to force predictable evolutionary trade-offs, driving the reversion of multidrug resistance to an attenuated...

Genetic analysis of the SAUSA300_1739 to SAUSA300_1744 operon across several Staphylococcus aureus strains indicate that the operon is highly conserved, highlighting its importance for virulence.

Antibiotic resistance and expression of virulence factors can impact the outcome of infection by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Pathogenesis is often modelled using the P. aeruginosa PAO1 reference strain but laboratory lineages vary in the sequence and activity of MexT, a global regulator impacting virulence, biofilm formati...

It is demonstrated that Spongosorites sp-derived bisindole alkaloid (R)-6’-debromohamacanthin B (RDB) exerts dual bacterium-directed and host-directed activities, simultaneously attenuating virulence and biofilm formation while reinforcing host defense and controlling pathological inflammation.
