The efficient separation of Corynebacterium glutamicum cells from culture medium by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) is presented. Residue analysis demonstrated that this method effectively depletes extracellular compounds. For evaluation, SEC was compared with the common methods cold methanol treatment, fast centrifugation and fast filtration. For this purpose, samples of C. glutamicum cells from fermenter cultures were harvested and subjected to a metabolome analysis. In particular, the wild type strain C. glutamicum ATCC13032 and the lysine production strain C. glutamicum DM1730 were grown in a minimal or in a complex medium. Comparison of metabolite pool sizes after harvesting C. glutamicum cells by the methods mentioned above by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) revealed that SEC is the most suitable method when intracellular metabolite pools are to be measured during growth in complex media or in the presence of significant amounts of secreted metabolites. In contrast to the other methods tested, the SEC method turned out to be fast and able to remove extracellular compounds almost completely.

Peptidoglycan (PGN) is a unique component of prokaryotic cell walls with immune-enhancing capacities. Here, we extracted PGN from , a by-product of amino acid fermentation, using the trichloroacetic acid (TCA) method. SDS-PAGE analysis confirmed the presence of PGN, with a band of approximately 28 kDa.

exhibits intrinsic resistance to most antibiotics, hence leading to infections that are difficult to treat. To address this issue, the identification of new molecular targets is essential for the development or repositioning of therapeutic agents. This study demonstrated that the -knockout strain, Mab, became significantly susceptible to a range of antibiotics, not only but also exhibited susceptibility to rifabutin, bedaquiline, and linezolid .

Protein mycoloylation is a recently identified unusual post-translational modification (PTM) exclusively observed in Mycobacteriales, an order of bacteria that includes several human pathogens. These bacteria possess a distinctive outer membrane, known as the mycomembrane, composed of very long-chain fatty acids called mycolic acids. It has been demonstrated that a few mycomembrane proteins undergo covalent modification with mycolic acids in the model organism through the action of mycoloyltransferase MytC.
