Abstract The bactericidal activity of several antibiotics partially relies on the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which is generally linked to enhanced respiration and requires the Fenton reaction. Bacterial persister cells, an important

ABSTRACTTo infer the biological meaning from transcriptome data, it is useful to focus on genes that are regulated by the same regulator, i.e., regulons. Unfortunately, current gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) tools do not consider whether a gene

Abstract Background The bacterium Bacillus subtilis is extensively used for the commercial production of enzymes due to its efficient protein secretion capacity. However, the efficiency of secretion varies greatly between enzymes, and despite many ye

ABSTRACT The conserved protein WhiA is present in most Gram-positive bacteria and plays a role in cell division. WhiA contains a DNA-binding motif and is a transcription regulator of the key cell division gene ftsZ in actinomycetes. In Bacillus subti

Abstract Antimicrobial resistance is a major threat to human health. Basic knowledge of antimicrobial mechanism of action (MoA) is imperative for patient care and for identification of novel antimicrobials. However, the process of antimicrobial MoA i

Wenzel et al. developed a flat embedding method for TEM, which increases the fraction of appropriately orientated cells per image, making it easier to quantify cell morphology. They find that tetracycline-treated B. subtilis shows membrane lesions an

Bacteria can become dormant or form spores when starved for nutrients. Here, Gray et al. describe an alternative strategy, or ‘oligotrophic growth state’, showing that non-sporulating Bacillus subtilis cells can survive deep starvation conditions

Abstract The conserved cell division protein SepF aligns polymers of FtsZ, the key cell division protein in bacteria, during synthesis of the (Fts)Z-ring at midcell, the first stage in cytokinesis. In addition, SepF acts as a membrane anchor for the

In many bacteria, cell division begins before the sister chromosomes are fully segregated. Specific DNA translocases ensure that the chromosome is removed from the closing septum, such as the transmembrane protein FtsK in Escherichia coli. Bacillus s

Nucleoprotein complexes play an integral role in genome organization of both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Apart from their role in locally structuring and compacting DNA, several complexes are known to influence global organization by mediating long-r
