Targeting of Regulators as a Promising Approach in the Search for Novel Antimicrobial Agents

Davide Roncarati et al.

Summary: Since the discovery of penicillin, antibiotics have played a crucial role in fighting bacterial infections but the rise of antibiotic-resistant pathogens has made it increasingly difficult to treat these infections. This article highlights the potential of bacterial transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulators as targets for developing new drugs and discusses recent advances in finding compounds that can inhibit their biological activity.

Enhancement of Acinetobacter baumannii biofilm growth by cephem antibiotics via enrichment of protein and extracellular DNA in the biofilm matrices

Kaoru Yamabe et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effects of eight cephem and carbapenem antibiotics on the biofilm formation of Acinetobacter baumannii cells. The results showed that certain cephems increased the biomass of pre-established biofilms and the enhanced biofilms exhibited more virulent characteristics.

Effect of bacterial quorum sensing and mechanism of antimicrobial resistance

Dantuluri Veerabhadra Raju et al.

Summary: Biofilm provides protection for microcolonies and enables the development of antimicrobial resistance through quorum sensing. Microbes develop resistance to antimicrobial agents by modifying their cell walls, pumping out the drugs, or acquiring resistance from other microbes. The overuse of antibiotics and improper prescriptions are contributing factors to antimicrobial resistance.

Systematic analysis of the underlying genomic architecture for transcriptional-translational coupling in prokaryotes

Richa Bharti et al.

Summary: Transcriptional-translational coupling in prokaryotes is fundamental for gene expression, and this study identified three highly frequent gene cassettes containing genes that link transcription and translation in bacteria. The presence of these cassettes was found to be enriched in pathogenic bacterial phyla, potentially providing new insights for future biotechnological approaches.

Summary: The study shows that mutations affecting efflux pumps can directly increase P. aeruginosa virulence. Mutations in different efflux pump systems affect the toxic behavior of P. aeruginosa differently. Using an efflux pump inhibitor can dose-dependently increase the expression of rhamnolipid genes.
