Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the greatest threats to human health that, by 2050,
will lead to more deaths from bacterial infections than cancer. New antimicrobial agents …

Glycosylation is a prevalent, yet heterogeneous modification with a broad range of
implications in molecular biology. This heterogeneity precludes enrichment strategies that …

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) constitute a heterogeneous group of microorganisms that produce
lactic acid as the major product during the fermentation process. LAB are Gram-positive …

Sulfur plays a critical role for the development and maintenance of life on earth, which is

Covering: 1988 to 2012 This review presents recommended nomenclature for the
biosynthesis of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) …

Bacteria use various strategies to compete in an ecological niche, including the production
of bacteriocins. Bacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized antibacterial peptides, and it has …

Microbial biocontrol agents are efficient and environment-friendly in eradicating plant
pathogenic bacteria. In recent years, Bacillus velezensis has gained popularity as a …

Glycosylation of proteins is one of the most prevalent post-translational modifications
occurring in nature, with a wide repertoire of biological implications. Pathways for the main …

Humans have been increasingly recognized as being superorganisms, living in close
contact with a microbiota on all their mucosal surfaces. However, most studies on the human …

Antimicrobial peptides are produced across all domains of life. Among these diverse
compounds, those produced by bacteria have been most successfully applied as agents of …
