Effect of a Defective Clamp Loader Complex of DNA Polymerase III on Growth and SOS Response in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Maria Concetta Spinnato et al.

Summary: DNA polymerase III is an important replicative enzyme in bacteria. This study investigates the specific properties and functioning of DNA polymerase III in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The findings show that a conditional mutant lacking the HolD subunit of DNA polymerase III in P. aeruginosa exhibits decreased growth, induction of the SOS response, and emergence of suppressor mutants. Interestingly, unlike in Escherichia coli, the growth of P. aeruginosa cells lacking HolD cannot be rescued by deleting specialized DNA polymerase genes. The study also highlights the essential role of homologous recombination in supporting replication by a psi-deficient Pol III enzyme in P. aeruginosa.

Targeting the bacterial SOS response for new antimicrobial agents: drug targets, molecular mechanisms and inhibitors

Thomas Lanyon-Hogg

Summary: The review explores the role of the bacterial SOS pathway in combating drug-resistant pathogens, potential targets for inhibition such as AddAB, RecBCD, RecA, and LexA, and efforts to develop selective small-molecule inhibitors. These inhibitors may serve as valuable tools for combating drug resistance and developing novel antibacterial therapeutics.

Colistin kills bacteria by targeting lipopolysaccharide in the cytoplasmic membrane

Akshay Sabnis et al.

Summary: Colistin is a last-resort antibiotic with poor efficacy due to growing resistance. Recent research has shown that colistin exerts bactericidal activity by targeting lipopolysaccharide in the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria. These findings offer insight into novel approaches for enhancing therapeutic outcomes.
