Scant information is available regarding fimbrillins within the genus , with the notable exception of those belonging to , which have been extensively researched for several years. Besides and , a third adhesin called filament-forming protein 1 (Ffp1) has recently been described and seems to be pivotal for outer membrane vesicle (OMV) production. We aimed to investigate the distribution and diversity of type V fimbrillin, particularly Ffp1, in the genus .

In bacteria, -translation is the major quality control system for rescuing stalled ribosomes. It is mediated by tmRNA, a hybrid RNA with properties of both a tRNA and a mRNA, and the small protein SmpB. Because -translation is absent in eukaryotes but necessary for bacterial fitness or survival, it is a promising target for the development of novel antibiotics.

is the leading cause of the human bacterial foodborne infections in the developed countries. The perception cues from biotic or abiotic environments by the bacteria are often related to bacterial surface and membrane proteins that mediate the cellular response for the adaptation of to the environment. These proteins function rarely as a unique entity, they are often organized in functional complexes.

Article Synopsis
  • - Maternal consumption of high levels of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), like linoleic acid, during pregnancy and nursing can increase the risk of metabolic diseases such as obesity in their offspring later in life.
  • - In a study involving pregnant rats, it was found that a diet rich in linoleic acid led to inflammation and increased fat in offspring at 3 months, while their intestinal and fat tissue health was more influenced by their diet after weaning at 6 months.
  • - The research indicates that maternal diets high in linoleic acid can change the gut microbiota and affect metabolic responses in their offspring, suggesting that early dietary influences have lasting effects on health.
