Fibrin barriers limit vancomycin penetration into staphylococcal communities and impact S. aureus transcriptional responses

This study shows fibrin barriers protect staphylococcal communities from vancomycin and alter their transcriptional responses.

Staphylococcus aureus exhibits spatiotemporal heterogeneity in Sae activity during kidney abscess development

This paper investigates the spatiotemporal regulation of Sae and Agr systems in Staphylococcus aureus during kidney abscess formation, finding Sae activity is heterogeneous and required for abscess progression.

Yersinia pseudotuberculosis growth arrest during type-III secretion system expression is associated with altered ribosomal protein expression and decreased gentamicin susceptibility

This study shows that Yersinia pseudotuberculosis growth arrest during T3SS expression reduces ribosomal protein levels and increases gentamicin tolerance.
