The paper develops fluorescence-based and thermal shift assays to assess binding and activity inhibition of the PhoQ protein, aiding in the development of antibiotics against resistant infections.

This paper shows that cobalt and nickel ions induce gene duplication amplification in Shewanella oneidensis, enabling stable metal resistance without fitness cost.

This paper investigates how virulence inhibitors affect efflux pump expression in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and links this to changes in motility and virulence.

The paper develops a whole-cell assay to measure kinact/KI values for PBPs in Streptococcus pneumoniae, showing results consistent with in vitro data and supporting its validity as an in vivo method.
