The communities of marine bacteria that assemble around living microphytoplankton are predictably dominated by three taxonomic groups, each of which specializes in the use or transport of different components of the available metabolite pool: Rhodobacterales transport small and polar metabolites,...
Cadmium (Cd) poses a serious threat to plant growth, so the selection and breeding of Cd-tolerant pepper cultivars is an effective method to reduce Cd hazards. This study identified C. annuum G03 as a Cd-tolerant cultivar, evidenced by its superior leaf physiological activity under Cd stress comp...
The communities of marine bacteria that assemble around living microphytoplankton are predictably dominated by three taxonomic groups, each of which specializes in different components of the available metabolite pool: Rhodobacterales transport small and polar metabolites, Flavobacteriia use carb...
In this study, bacterial strains 'SL8', 'SL12', and the cocultured 'SL8+SL12' were cultivated in LB medium with or without 100 mg/L cadmium(II) for 48 hours (six replicates per treatment). After centrifugation, extracellular metabolites in the supernatant were extracted using a methanol acetonitr...
Multidrug-resistant bacteria present a major threat to public health. Therefore, new drugs or approaches are urgently needed to manage and mitigate this threat. Here, we screen the molecular candidates that allow the survival of mice upon Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection by integrated p...
Staphylococcus aureus is a major human pathogen responsible for severe infections. While traditionally described as extracellular, increasing evidence establishes S. aureus as a facultative intracellular pathogen. Intracellularity contributes to immune evasion, dissemination, and antibiotic failu...
The lack of new drugs that are effective against antibiotic-resistant bacteria has caused increasing concern in global public health. Based on this study, we report development of a modified antimicrobial drug through structure-based drug design (SBDD) and modular synthesis. The optimal modified ...
