Tmn blocks phage spread via plasmolysis and triggers synergistic defence responses

Yi Wu, Zhiying Zhang, Sofya K. Garushyants…·Franklin L. Nóbrega

This study identifies Tmn as a bacterial membrane protein that blocks phage spread by inducing plasmolysis and activates synergistic defence responses through ATP depletion.

Campycins are novel broad spectrum antibacterials killing Campylobacter jejuni by targeting the essential major outer membrane protein (MOMP)

Athina Zampara, Yilmaz Emre Gençay, Lone Brøndsted, Martine C. Holst Sørensen

This paper develops campycins, retargeted pyocins that kill Campylobacter jejuni by binding to MOMP, achieving over 3-log reductions under microaerobic conditions.
