PBP1A and LdtJ support cell envelope homeostasis and impact selection of Colistin-resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii

Berenice Furlan, Sinjini Nandy, Hanling Gong, Michael Bernard Whalen, Nicolò Mattei, Roberto Jhonatan Olea‐Ozuna, Daniela Vollmer, Waldemar Vollmer, Joseph M. Boll, Orietta Massidda

This study identifies the functional interplay between PBP1A and LdtJ in Acinetobacter baumannii, showing that disrupting their coordination weakens the cell envelope and increases colistin resistance.

Outer membrane remodeling via lipid-peptidoglycan crosstalk enables lipooligosaccharide-deficient colistin resistance

Roberto Jhonatan Olea‐Ozuna, Berenice Furlan, Hanling Gong, Orietta Massidda, Joseph M. Boll

The paper shows that disrupting phospholipid homeostasis in Gram-negative bacteria enables LOS-deficient, colistin-resistant variants by altering outer membrane structure and peptidoglycan synthesis.

Environmental context reveals a conditional role of the Tol-Pal system in envelope organization in Acinetobacter baumannii

Roberto Jhonatan Olea‐Ozuna, Berenice Furlan, Suman Tiwari, Hanling Gong, Augusto César Hunt-Serracín, Michael Bernard Whalen, Orietta Massidda, Nicholas Allen Dillon, Joseph M. Boll

This study shows that the Tol-Pal system in Acinetobacter baumannii is conditionally required for envelope organization under specific environmental stresses but not under standard lab conditions.
