The striking feature of the ubiquitous protein EfTu (Thermo unstable ribosomal Elongation factor) is its moonlighting (multifunctional) activity. Beyond its function at the ribosomal level it should be exported to the bacterial surface and act as an environmental sensor. In Bacillus cereus, and other cutaneous bacteria, it serves as a Substance P (SP) receptor and is essential for bacterial adaptation to the host. However, the modus operandi of EfTu as a bacterial sensor remains to be investigated. Studies realized by confocal and transmission electron microscopy revealed that, in the absence of an exogenous signal, EfTu is not exposed on the bacterial surface but is recruited under the effect of SP. In addition, SP acts as a transcriptional regulator of the tuf gene encoding for EfTu. As observed using gadolinium chloride, an inhibitor of membrane mechanosensitive channels (Msc), Msc control EfTu export and subsequently the bacterial response to SP both in terms of cytotoxicity and biofilm formation activity. Microscale thermophoresis revealed that in response to SP, EfTu can form homopolymers. This event should occur after EfTu export and, as shown by proteo-liposome reconstruction studies, SP appears to promote EfTu polymers association to the membrane, leading subsequently to the bacterial response. Molecular modeling suggests that this mechanism should involve EfTu unfolding and insertion into the bacterial cytoplasmic membrane, presumably through formation of homopolymers. This study is unraveling the original mechanism action of EfTu as a bacterial sensor but also reveals that this protein should have a broader role, including in eukaryotes.

Because of the urgent need for new antibiotics to treat drug-resistant bacterial pathogens, we employed an assay that rapidly screens large quantities of compounds for their ability to interfere with bacterial protein synthesis, in particular, the delivery of amino acids to the ribosome via tRNA and elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu). We have identified a drug lead, named MGC-10, which kills Gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-resistant (MRSA), with a MIC of 6 µM, while being harmless to mammalian cells in that concentration range. The antibacterial activity of MGC-10 was broad against over 50 strains of antibiotic-resistant samples obtained from hospital infections, where MGC-10 inhibited all tested strains of MRSA.

Diabetes is attributed to an increased vulnerability to bacterial infection linked to unregulated hyperglycaemia. The present study highlights the formulation of nanoparticles with phyto-compound piperine (PIP) encapsulated within non-toxic biodegradable polymer poly-lactide co-glycolide (PLGA) which showed a variety in surface functionality, biocompatibility, and the ability to tailor an optimized release rate from its polymeric enclosure. The observations revealed that nanopiperine (NPIP) pre-treatment in mice inhibited alteration in hepatic tissue architecture and hepato-biochemical parameters in diabetes and its associated bacterial infections.

An attractive strategy for combating antibacterial resistance involves the development of new antibiotics whose mechanisms differ from those of existing ones in the clinic. Elfamycin antibiotics, whose prototypes include kirromycin and aurodox, are illustrative examples based on their ability to target EF-Tu, an essential component for protein translation in bacteria. Our efforts to revisit this antibiotic class were enabled by two developments.

Mycoplasma synoviae is an important avian pathogen that causes respiratory infections and arthritis symptoms in chickens and turkeys, resulting in significant economic damage to the poultry farming industry worldwide. Cell adhesion is a vital stage of Mycoplasma infection, and the proteins associated with this process play an important role in its pathogenesis. Elongation factor thermo stable (EF-Ts) is an important factor in prokaryotic biosynthesis that serves as a guanosine exchange factor for elongation factor thermo unstable (EF-Tu).
