Journal ArticleDOI

An interbacterial toxin inhibits target cell growth by synthesizing (p)ppApp.

TL;DR: A previously undescribed mechanism for interbacterial antagonism is revealed and a physiological role for the metabolite (p)ppApp in bacteria is demonstrated in bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacterial type VII secretion: An important player in host-microbe and microbe-microbe interactions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare the molecular architectures and substrate repertoires of the well-studied mycobacterial Type VII secretion systems (T7SSa) to that of recently characterized T7SSb pathways and highlight how these differences may explain the observed biological functions of this understudied protein export machine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overcoming Acquired and Native Macrolide Resistance with Bicarbonate.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that macrolide resistance, observed in the clinical microbiology laboratory using standard culturing techniques, is a poor predictor of efficacy in the clinic and that observed resistance should not necessarily hamper the use of macrolides.
