Virulent Klebsiella oxytoca strains are associated with gut and lung pathologies, yet our understanding of the molecular signals governing pathogenesis remains limited. Here, we characterized a family of K. oxytoca pyrazine and pyrazinone autoinducers and explored their roles in microbial and host signaling.

Article Synopsis
  • Myxobacteria are tiny bacteria that can make complicated chemicals with many interesting uses, and this study focused on a special chemical called coralinone found in one type of myxobacteria named SDU70.
  • The researchers discovered how coralinone is made and that it helps myxobacteria stick together more by increasing a special substance they produce.
  • They also found a gene that helps myxobacteria protect themselves from the effects of coralinone, showing how these bacteria may evolve to keep their environment in balance.

isolates commonly inhabit the human microbiota, yet the majority of 's small-molecule repertoire remains uncharacterized. We previously employed erythromycin-induced translational stress to facilitate the characterization of autoinducer-3 (AI-3) and structurally related pyrazinones derived from "abortive" tRNA synthetase reactions in pathogenic, commensal, and probiotic isolates. In this study, we explored the "missing" tryptophan-derived pyrazinone reaction and characterized two other families of metabolites that were similarly upregulated under erythromycin stress.
