Overview
Mechanism of Escherichia coli resistance to Pyrrhocoricin.
The study identifies the sbmA gene as a critical factor in Escherichia coli resistance to pyrrhocoricin, with resistance arising from deletions in this gene.
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria show widespread collateral sensitivity to antimicrobial peptides.
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria exhibit widespread collateral sensitivity to antimicrobial peptides, particularly PGLA. Mutations in marR, ompC, and sbmA contribute to this sensitivity by altering membrane properties and efflux mechanisms.
Identification and Functional Analysis of Proline-Rich Cathelicidins from Camelidae Species
Intermittent antibiotic treatment of bacterial biofilms favors the rapid evolution of resistance.
The study identifies mutations in sbmA, fusA, and fimH genes that contribute to amikacin resistance in biofilm-forming E. coli. These mutations were selected during intermittent amikacin treatment, highlighting the role of biofilm environments in accelerating resistance evolution.
Genomic Insights into Bacterial Resistance to Proline-Rich Antimicrobial Peptide Bac7.
The study identifies the inactivation of the sbmA gene and a point mutation in the waaP kinase as mechanisms of resistance to Bac7 1-22 in E. coli MDR 1057. The waaP mutation also contributes to resistance to polymyxin B.
Rumicidins are a family of mammalian host-defense peptides plugging the 70S ribosome exit tunnel.
Rumicidins are a family of proline-rich cathelicidins that inhibit bacterial protein biosynthesis by targeting the 70S ribosome. They exhibit broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and resistance mechanisms involve the SbmA transporter and MacB efflux pump.
