The global public health burden of bacterial antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is intensified by
Gram-negative bacteria, which have an additional membrane, the outer membrane (OM) …

The β‐barrel assembly machinery (Bam) complex facilitates the assembly of outer
membrane proteins (OMPs) in gram‐negative bacteria. The Bam complex is conserved and …

The regulator of capsule synthesis (Rcs) system, an atypical two-component system
prevalent in numerous gram-negative bacteria, serves as a sophisticated regulatory …

The Rcs pathway is repressed by the inner membrane protein IgaA under non-stressed
conditions. This repression is hypothesized to be relieved by the binding of the outer …

The Rcs (regulator of capsule synthesis) phosphorelay is a conserved cell envelope stress
response mechanism in enterobacteria. It responds to perturbations at the cell surface and …

Adhesive-invasive E. coli has been suggested to be associated with the development of
Crohn's disease (CD). It is assumed that they can provoke the onset of the inflammatory …

The Rcs sensor system, comprising the RcsB/RcsC/RcsD and RcsF proteins, is used by
bacteria of the order Enterobacterales to withstand envelope damage. In non-stress …

Rhamnolipid (RL) can inhibit biofilm formation of Escherichia coli O157: H7, but the
associated mechanism remains unknown. We here conducted comparative physiological …

Escherichia coli cell envelope is crucial for stress sensing and signal transduction, mediated
by numerous protein–protein interactions to enable adaptation and survival. Interfering with …

The term “nanoparticles” being expressed in microbiology is coined from the Greek word
“nano” meaning “dwarf”. Nanoparticles range in size from 1-100nm. Nanoparticles vary in …
