Proud to share my latest publication! 🧬 We uncovered how Streptococcus dysgalactiae protects itself from a competence-induced murein hydrolase, ScrM, via a Fem-transferase-like immunity factor 🦠🔐onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

Kamala Harris told us exactly what was going to happen.

Our paper on Characterization of VldE (Spr1875), a Pneumococcal Two-State l,d-Endopeptidase with a Four-Zinc Cluster in the Active Site is available. Great collaborative work with @DanStreamer, @GrangeasseTeam and Mobashery lab @NotreDame. Hope you enjoy pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

@JanineLux @sdb_lab @unibern @snsf_ch Congratulations @JanineLux 🎊🍾

@sdb_lab @unibern @snsf_ch Thank you! It was great to present the research project and thank you for all the interesting discussions!

Great PhD defense by @JanineLux from Lucy J Hathaway‘s group @unibern @snsf_ch Congrats!! 💪🏼🎉🎓

CRISPRi-Tn-Seq! Great collaboration with @tvanop nature.com/articles/s4156…

This has to be some kind of record...

We found that pneumococci struggle to develop resistance to the cyclic lipopeptide viscosin. Exploring less toxic derivatives may unveil promising new antimicrobials. @Morten3891 @biocath journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/sp…

@MaritaMarli has studied competence in Strep dysgalactiae strains from bovines and humans - and found a method to make mutants using natural transformation! @DanStreamer @DPorcellato @UniNMBU Great collaboration with Oddvar Oppegaard @medofak_uib. mSphere journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ms…

Already available our review on the regulation of lytic machineries by FtsEX in bacterial division. In recent years, amazing structural information has been provided on this, nearly conserved, bacterial system. Hope you enjoy febs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/18…

🔔Job alert! 🔔 We are looking for a postdoc/researcher interested in characterizing enzymes at the interface of microbial denitrification and lignocellulose degradation🔬 Come join our #ERCfunded team! jobbnorge.no/en/available-j…

Have a look at our new paper on the role of CozE proteins in S. aureus @MariaBarbuti @GrangeasseTeam @CamiloPerezC6H6 @JWVeening @liuxuescience @DanStreamer @a_ducret

Finally online: @DennisWicke's paper on a strongly conserved bacterial protein that interacts with RNase P and modulates its activity in Bacillus subtilis! @uniGoettingen 🤝@uni_mr #moty @NAR_Open academic.oup.com/nar/article/do…

Our latest work on cell division is out. FtsEX:RipC in M. tuberculosis presents unique features compared with G(-) as a surprising inclined arrangement. A nice joint effort with Luo Min and Chris Sham Labs at @NUSingapore against this nefarious pathogen. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Fantastic transatlantic collaborative work between @pippomancia @dworkinlab @pstansfeld @LindaColumbus @OliBClark featuring the collective talent of @RieNygaard @ChrisLBGraham @meagandufrisne @chelseabrowncg & several others..@uniofwarwick @ColumbiaPS nature.com/articles/s4146…

Site-2-proteases trigger signaling cascades in response to external stimuli – as we learn more about them in different bacteria, they are emerging as #virulence regulators and targets for therapeutics. Read the review by Kristensen et al @Morten3891 📑 academic.oup.com/microlife/arti…
