TypA Interacts with ExsA to Suppress Type III Secretion System in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

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.

Relationship between quorum-sensing and virulence genes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from patients, and their association with antimicrobial resistance

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...

R-pyocin-mediated selection reverses pan-drug resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

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...

Plasticity in a bacterial global regulatory switch that drives a shift in antibiotic resistance and 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...

A quorum sensing antagonist with dual bacterium- and host-directed anti-pathogenic activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa

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.
