The paper identifies a regulatory complex in mycobacteria that coordinates cell envelope assembly by linking arabinogalactan and mycolic acid biosynthesis.

This study investigates how cardiolipin modulates MmpL3 function in mycobacteria, revealing its role in regulating proton translocation and MA transport.

This study identifies a two-component system signaling hub that controls membrane remodeling in Enterococcus faecalis in response to daptomycin, linking lipid changes to antibiotic resistance.

The paper identifies AbjA, a bacterial protein that blocks plasmid conjugation by targeting the T4SS ATPase TrbE, inducing cell death and preventing horizontal gene transfer.

This study investigates the role of trehalose in mycolic acid biosynthesis in mycobacteria, showing its essentiality through Pks13 specificity and demonstrating that trehalose dimycolate is dispensable for growth.

The paper identifies DedD as an interacting partner of YhdP and shows that AsmA-superfamily proteins are enriched at Escherichia coli cell poles, suggesting spatial restriction of phospholipid transport.

This study solves the structure of the E. coli TolQRA complex using cryo-EM to elucidate the mechanism of force transduction across the cell envelope.

This study identifies a direct interaction between TolB and cardiolipin, revealing a lipid-binding role for TolB in maintaining outer membrane homeostasis in E. coli.

The paper uncouples Tol-Pal complex function in maintaining outer membrane lipid homeostasis from its role in cell division in E. coli.
