Communications Biology - Bacteroidota use the Type IX secretion system to secrete proteins with a conserved C-terminal domain (CTD) secretion signal domain. Type B CTDs require specific shuttle...

Mass spectrometry instrumentation continues to evolve rapidly, yet quantifying these advances beyond conventional peptide and protein detections remains challenging. Here, we evaluate a modified Orbit...

Gram-negative bacteria are particularly prone to developing antimicrobial resistance (AMR), as evidenced by the WHO's ESKAPEE list of high-priority pathogens. One strategy that has increased is the u...

Lipids play a critical role in the physiology, life cycle, and pathogenicity of mycobacteria. They largely participate in host–pathogen interactions and fulfill important functions ranging from cell w...

The constant emergence of drug-resistant mycobacteria, together with the lack of new antibiotics entering the market, has become a global public health problem that threatens the effective treatment o...

Background Mycobacterium abscessus is an emerging pathogen causing severe pulmonary infections, particularly in individuals with underlying conditions, such as cystic fibrosis or chronic obstructive p...
