ABSTRACT Like other members of the phylum Bacteroidetes, the oral anaerobe Porphyromonas gingivalis synthesizes a variety of sphingolipids, similar to its human host. Studies have shown that synthesis of these lipids (dihydroceramides [DHCs]) is invo

The periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis strain W83 displays at least three different surface glycans, specifically two types of lipopolysaccharides (O-LPS and A-LPS) and K-antigen capsule. Despite the importance of K-antigen capsule to the

ABSTRACT Cell division is the ultimate process for the propagation of bacteria, and FtsZ is an essential protein used by nearly all bacteria for this function. Chlamydiae belong to a small group of bacteria that lack the universal cell division prote

After losing their protective peptidoglycan, bacterial spheroplasts can resynthesize a cell wall to recreate their normal shape. In Escherichia coli , this process requires the Rcs response. In its absence, spheroplasts do not revert to rod shapes bu

Peptidoglycan is a vital component of nearly all cell wall-bearing bacteria and is a valuable target for antibacterial therapy. However, despite decades of work, there remain important gaps in understanding how this macromolecule is synthesized and m

Interactions with immune responses or exposure to certain antibiotics can remove the peptidoglycan wall of many Gram-negative bacteria. Though the spheroplasts thus created usually lyse, some may survive by resynthesizing their walls and shapes. Norm

The Staphylococcus aureus cid and lrg operons are known to be involved in biofilm formation by controlling cell lysis and the release of genomic DNA, which ultimately becomes a structural component of the biofilm matrix. Although the molecular mechan

Our lab has isolated hexameric peptides that are structure-selective ligands of Holliday junctions (HJ), central intermediates of several DNA recombination reactions. One of the most potent of these inhibitors, WRWYCR, has shown antibacterial activit
