Pathogenic intracellular bacteria pose a significant threat to global public health due to the barriers presented by host cells hindering the timely detection of hidden bacteria and the effective delivery of therapeutic agents. To address these challenges, we propose a tandem diagnosis-guided treatment paradigm. A supramolecular sensor array is developed for simple, rapid, accurate, and high-throughput identification of intracellular bacteria.

Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are becoming a major challenge in human and veterinary medicine, as well as in food processing. In this study, the protein diversity in antibiotic-sensitive and -resistant strains of and was investigated by exposing them to varying doses of gamma irradiation, with and without antibiotic presence. Changes in bacterial protein profiles were characterized using MALDI-TOF MS to reveal dose-dependent adaptations and potentiation effects under combined irradiation and antibiotic treatments.

Unlabelled: Cell wall-anchored surface proteins of Gram-positive bacteria, harboring a highly conserved YSIRK/G-S signal peptide (SP), are deposited at cell division septum and anchored to septal peptidoglycan. The mechanisms supporting YSIRK protein septal trafficking remain elusive. Previously, we identified that LtaS-mediated lipoteichoic acid (LTA) synthesis restricts septal trafficking of YSIRK+ proteins in .
