Antibiotics and other agents that perturb the synthesis or integrity of the bacterial cell
envelope trigger compensatory stress responses. Focusing on Bacillus subtilis as a model …

The function of many bacterial processes depends on the formation of functional membrane
microdomains (FMMs), which resemble the lipid rafts of eukaryotic cells. However, the …

The invasive plant pathogen Xylella fastidiosa currently threatens European flora through
the loss of economically and culturally important host plants. This emerging vector-borne …

The ability of lipids to drive lateral organization is a remarkable feature of membranes and
has been hypothesized to underlie the architecture of cells. Models for lipid rafts and related …

The economic viability of bioprocesses is constrained by the limited range of operating
conditions that can be tolerated by the cell factory. Engineering of the microbial cell …

Many eukaryotic membrane-dependent functions are often spatially and temporally
regulated by membrane microdomains (FMMs), also known as lipid rafts. These domains …

Cell membranes are not homogenous but compartmentalized into lateral microdomains,
which are considered as biochemical reaction centers for various physiological processes in …

ABSTRACT The bacterial HflK-HflC membrane complex is a member of the highly
conserved SPFH protein family, which is found throughout all domains of life and includes …

Extended-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant Escherichia coli (ESCR E. coli) with plasmids
carrying the bla CMY-2 resistance gene have been isolated from the Norwegian broiler …

Cell membranes laterally segregate into microdomains enriched in certain lipids and
scaffold proteins. Membrane microdomains modulate protein–protein interactions and are …
