The rapid emergence of antimicrobial-resistant pathogenic microbes has accelerated the search for novel therapeutic agents. Here we report the discovery of antarmycin A (), an antibiotic containing a symmetric 16-membered macrodiolide core with two pendant vancosamine moieties, one of which is glucosylated, from deep-sea-derived SCSIO 07407. The biosynthetic gene cluster of was identified on a giant plasmid featuring transferable elements.

Cell death mediated by executioner caspases is essential during organ development and for organismal homeostasis. The mechanistic role of activated executioner caspases in antibacterial defense during infections with intracellular bacteria, such as Listeria monocytogenes, remains elusive. Cell death upon intracellular bacterial infections is considered altruistic to deprive the pathogens of their protective niche.

Predictions of drug-drug interactions resulting from time-dependent inhibition (TDI) of CYP3A4 have consistently overestimated or mispredicted (ie, false positives) the interaction that is observed in vivo. Recent findings demonstrated that the presence of the allosteric modulator progesterone (PGS) in the in vitro assay could alter the in vitro kinetics of CYP3A4 TDI with inhibitors that interact with the heme moiety, such as metabolic-intermediate complex forming inhibitors. The impact of the presence of 100 μM PGS on the TDI of molecules in the class of macrolides typically associated with metabolic-intermediate complex formation was investigated.

Inspired by the superhydrophobic characteristics of duck feathers this research introduced an intelligent, responsive, and eco-friendly food packaging film constructed from carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and gelatin (Gel). The film successfully mimics the asymmetric, bionic, barbed structure of a duck feather, offering outstanding hydrophobicity and moisture vapor resistance characteristics. Moreover, the bionic film demonstrated good mechanical strength, film-forming ability and biodegradability.

Opportunistic bacterial pathogens must compete with other bacteria and switch between host- and environment-adapted states. Type VI secretion systems (T6SSs) occur widely in gram-negative bacteria and can efficiently kill neighboring competitors. We determined the distribution of T6SSs across the genus Serratia and observed that a highly conserved antibacterial T6SS is differentially active between closely related clinical isolates of Serratia marcescens.
