New research reveals that nutrient starvation hinders antibiotic effectiveness, challenging previous theories and potentially leading to better treatments.
A new study shows how phages, viruses that kill bacteria, can coexist on a single bacterial strain. This offers valuable insights for developing more effective therapies against antibiotic-resistant infections.
Proximity labelling and single-particle tracking demonstrated that effectors in bacteria bind to mobile injectisome components.
Protein released by C. burnetti interacts with antioxidising enzyme GPX4 to prevent cell damage and death.
According to US researchers, insights from mouse models of salmonella could lead to better vaccines and immunity.
Researchers have revealed that the protein APOL3 acts as a detergent in human cells, potentially leading to new antibacterial treatments.
Exosomes containing salmonella antigens were administered to the mice, enabling the models to develop antibodies against the bacteria.
Biochemist and physician Professor Ivan Dikic and microbiologist Professor Volker Müller are very honoured that their pioneering research projects have been selected for this substantial financial support.
