Members of the Omp85 superfamily of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) found in Gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria and chloroplasts are characterized by a distinctive 16-stranded β-barrel transmembrane domain and at least one periplasmic POTRA domain. All previously studied Omp85 proteins promote c...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an environmentally resilient bacterium and an important cause of both acute and chronic infections in people with impaired natural barriers or immunological defences. Chronic respiratory infection with P. aeruginosa is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in people with...

Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa often causes multidrug-resistant infections in immunocompromised patients and polymyxins are often used as the last-line therapy. Alarmingly, resistance to polymyxins has been increasingly reported worldwide recently. To rescue this last-resort class of antibiotics...

The basic biology of bacteriophage–host interactions has attracted increasing attention due to a renewed interest in the therapeutic potential of bacteriophages. In addition, knowledge of the host pathways inhibited by phage may provide clues to novel drug targets. However, the effect of phage on ba...

Polymicrobial infections involving Staphylococcus aureus are often more severe than single-species infections. S. aureus typically initiates the infection, creating conditions that allow secondary pathogens like Pseudomonas aeruginosa to establish. In this study, we investigate how coagulase prod...

While bacterial metabolism is known to impact antibiotic efficacy and virulence, the metabolic capacities of individual microbes in cystic fibrosis lung infections are difficult to disentangle from sputum samples. Here, we show that untargeted metabolomic profiling of supernatants of multiple str...

Rapid evaporative ionisation mass spectrometry (REIMS) is a novel technique for the real-time analysis of biological material. It works by conducting an electrical current through a sample, causing it to rapidly heat and evaporate, with the analyte containing vapour channelled to a mass spectrometer...

Polymyxins are the last-line antibiotics against multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa however, resistance to polymyxins has been increasingly reported. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of polymyxin activity and resistance is crucial for preserving their clinical usefulness. This study e...

Across diverse contexts, bacteria experience loss of electron acceptors due to fluctuating environmental conditions, requiring strategies to avoid metabolic arrest due to reductive stress. Yet, microbial metabolism has been primarily studied with cells growing aerobically under nutrient replete c...
