    Single-cell RNA-seq reveals trans-sialidase-like superfamily gene expression heterogeneity in Trypanosoma cruzi populations

    Lucas Inchausti, Lucia Bilbao ... Pablo Smircich
    Transcriptomic heterogeneity in infective-stage surface proteins of Trypanosoma cruzi, particularly trans-sialidase-like superfamily members, suggests distinct expression profiles among individual parasites that may enhance immune evasion and infection adaptability.

    Peptidoglycan recycling is critical for cell division, cell wall integrity, and β-lactam resistance in Caulobacter crescentus

    Pia Richter, Anna Merz ... Martin Thanbichler
    Peptidoglycan recycling is essential for proper cell growth and intrinsic ampicillin resistance in Caulobacter crescentus, highlighting PG recycling enzymes as potential antibacterial targets.

    A conserved mycobacterial nucleomodulin hijacks the host COMPASS complex to reprogram pro-inflammatory transcription and promote intracellular survival

    Liu Chen, Baojie Duan ... Aizhen Guo
    Mycobacterium tuberculosis deploys nucleomodulins to suppress COMPASS-dependent H3K4 methylation, dampening pro-inflammatory gene expression to enhance intracellular survival and uncovering an epigenetic immune-evasion strategy.

    Human genetic ancestry, Mycobacterium tuberculosis diversity, and tuberculosis disease severity in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

    Michaela Zwyer, Zhi Ming Xu ... Daniela Brites
    The severity of active tuberculosis in a high-burden population is not explained by host or pathogen genetic variation, suggesting a dominant role for social and environmental factors.

    4-Aminoquinolines block heme iron reactivity and interfere with artemisinin action

    Melissa Rosenthal, Daniel E Goldberg
    Chloroquine interferes with artemisinin activation, and such interactions should be considered when formulating antimalarial drug combinations.
