Chronic and recurrent bacterial infections are frequently associated with the formation of
biofilms on biotic or abiotic materials that are composed of mono-or multi-species cultures of …

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are important starter, commensal, or pathogenic microorganisms.
The stress physiology of LAB has been studied in depth for over 2 decades, fueled mostly by …

The clinical importance of the genus Enterococcus is directly related to its antibiotic
resistance, which contributes to the risk of colonization and infection. The species of the …

The bacterial communities in a wide range of environmental niches sense and respond to
numerous external stimuli for their survival. Primarily, a source they require to follow up this …

Streptomyces bacteria are ubiquitous in soil, conferring the characteristic earthy smell, and
they have an important ecological role in the turnover of organic material. More recently, a …

Two-component regulatory systems (TCSs) are a major mechanism by which bacteria sense
and respond to changes in their environment. TCSs typically consist of two proteins that …

Subsequent to binding pocket modifications designed to provide dual d-Ala-d-Ala/d-Ala-d-
Lac binding that directly overcome the molecular basis of vancomycin resistance, peripheral …

Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and their antimicrobial resistance pose exacerbating
global health threats and endangering everyone. Thus, the prevalence, molecular …

The bacterial cell envelope is the first and major line of defence against threats from the
environment. It is an essential and yet vulnerable structure that gives the cell its shape and …

Bacterial histidine kinases (HKs) are promising targets for novel antibacterials. Bacterial HKs
are part of bacterial two-component systems (TCSs), the main signal transduction pathways …
