Antibacterial activity of Xenopsylla cheopis attacins against Yersinia pestis

B. Mathew, K. L. Aoyagi, M. A. Fisher

This study investigates the antimicrobial activity of Xenopsylla cheopis attacins against Yersinia pestis, showing they inhibit colony formation and induce oxidative stress without causing immediate membrane damage.

Enterobacterial common antigen biosynthesis in Yersinia pestis is tied to antimicrobial peptide resistance

K. L. Aoyagi, B. Mathew, M. A. Fisher

The paper shows that ECA biosynthesis in Yersinia pestis affects antimicrobial peptide resistance by influencing lipid A modification and Und-P availability.

Yersinia pestis lipopolysaccharide remodeling confers resistance to a Xenopsylla cheopis cecropin

B. Mathew, K. L. Aoyagi, M. A. Fisher

This study shows that Yersinia pestis uses Ara4N modification of LPS to resist cheopin, an antimicrobial peptide from fleas.
