A Tad-like apparatus is required for contact-dependent prey killing in predatory social bacteria

S. Seef, J. Herrou, P. de Boissier, L. My, G. Brasseur, D. Robert, R. Jain, R. Mercier, E. Cascales, B. H. Habermann, T. Mignot

This study identifies a new type IV filament-like machinery, Kil, involved in contact-dependent prey killing by Myxococcus xanthus, showing its role in motility arrest and prey cell plasmolysis.

A divergent CheW confers plasticity to nucleoid-associated chemosensory arrays

A. Guiseppi, J.-J. Vicente, J. Herrou, A. Barneoud, A. Moine, L. Espinosa, M.-J. Basse, V. Molle, T. Mignot, P. Roche, E. Mauriello

The paper identifies FrzB, a divergent CheW in M. xanthus, which lacks the CheA-interacting region and functions upstream of FrzCD to enable distributed chemosensory arrays on the nucleoid, conferring plasticity to chemosensory systems.

Brucella periplasmic protein EipB is a molecular determinant of cell envelope integrity and virulence

J. Herrou, J. Willett, A. Fiebig, D. Czyz, J. Cheng, E. Ultee, A. Briegel, L. Bigelow, G. Babnigg, Y. Kim, S. Crosson

This study identifies EipB as a conserved periplasmic protein in Brucella that maintains cell envelope integrity and contributes to virulence, with structural and genetic interactions with TtpA.

Periplasmic protein EipA determines envelope stress resistance and virulence in Brucella abortus

J. Herrou, J. Willett, A. Fiebig, L. Varesio, D. Czyz, J. Cheng, E. Ultee, A. Briegel, L. Bigelow, G. Babnigg, Y. Kim, S. Crosson

This study identifies EipA as a periplasmic protein in Brucella abortus that enhances envelope stress resistance and virulence by maintaining cell envelope integrity and influencing cell division.

Molecular control of gene expression by Brucella BaaR, an IclR-family repressor

J. Herrou, D. M. Czyc, A. Fiebig, J. W. Willett, Y. Kim, R. Wu, G. Babnigg, S. Crosson

This study characterizes BaaR, an IclR-family repressor in Brucella abortus, showing it represses carboxylic acid oxidation operons and is activated by specific organic molecules.
