The tRNase domain of colicin D, which cleaves only tRNA(Arg)s at the 3' side of their anticodon loops, has been expressed in Escherichia coli with its inhibitor protein and purified to a form free from the inhibitor using a low-pH buffer. Crystals were obtained by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method at 278 K from a buffer containing 100 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.5, 22% PEG MME 2000 and 1 mM nickel(II) chloride. Diffraction data to 1.05 A resolution were collected at BL41XU, SPring-8. The crystals belong to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 34.7, b = 65.5, c = 96.5 A.

The development of new medicines with unique methods of antimicrobial action is desperately needed due to the emerging multidrug-resistant bacteria, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Therefore, antimicrobial peptoids have emerged as potential new antimicrobials. Thirteen peptoid analogues have been designed and synthesized via solid phase synthesis.

is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen and is a common cause of nosocomial infections. The increasing development of antibiotic resistance in this organism is a global health concern. The clinical isolate AB307-0294 produces a type VI secretion system (T6SS) that delivers three antibacterial effector proteins that give this strain a competitive advantage against other bacteria in polymicrobial environments.

The reliability of ceftriaxone for inferring susceptibility to higher-generation oral cephalosporins is unknown. Overall, ceftriaxone susceptibility predicted susceptibility to cefuroxime (89%), cefdinir (86%), cefpodoxime (90%), and cefixime (94%) based on disk diffusion results for 409 consecutive Enterobacterales bloodstream isolates from unique patients. Susceptibility percentages to the four oral cephalosporins ranged from 92% to 99% when limited to , isolates susceptible to ceftriaxone.
