This study identifies two mechanisms of cefiderocol resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii: cAMP signalling disruption and Hfq RNA-binding domain truncation, both linked to iron homeostasis and reduced drug activity.

This study shows that monounsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis is essential for streptococcal growth, stress tolerance, and virulence, with species-specific effects on pathogenesis.

This study shows glycerol inhibits lactose-dependent growth in Streptococcus pyogenes without affecting transcription, while lactose induces distinct transcriptional responses.

The paper identifies genetic variations in emm89 Streptococcus pyogenes associated with invasive infections using genome-wide association studies and validates one mutation's effect on bacterial growth.
