    Antibiotic potentiation and inhibition of cross-resistance in pathogens associated with cystic fibrosis

    Nikol Kadeřábková, R Christopher D Furniss ... Despoina AI Mavridou
    Targeting disulfide bond formation disables multiple antibiotic resistance mechanisms and prevents cross-protection between pathogens associated with cystic fibrosis lung infections, restoring antibiotic efficacy in polymicrobial settings.

    Global transcription factors analyses reveal hierarchy and synergism of regulatory networks and master virulence regulators in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

    Jiadai Huang, Yue Sun ... Xin Deng
    Systematic ChIP-seq profiling of 172 transcription factors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa reveals a hierarchical regulatory architecture governing virulence and establishes a searchable database to guide antimicrobial drug discovery.

    Epigenetics and chromatin structure regulate var2csa expression and the placental-binding phenotype in Plasmodium falciparum

    Todd Lenz, Madle Sirel ... Ulf Ribacke
    Placenta-binding parasites show that chromatin-based mechanisms regulate placental malaria virulence gene, var2csa, and requires loss of H3K9me3-mediated heterochromatic silencing and 3D nuclear repositioning away from telomeric-repressive clusters.

    Synaptotagmin 1 and Synaptotagmin 7 promote MR1-mediated presentation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens

    Se-Jin Kim, Jessie C Peterson ... David Lewinsohn
    Synaptotagmin 1 and Synaptotagmin 7 promote MAIT cell activation during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection by facilitating MR1 trafficking and antigen presentation.
