This study identifies dalberoside, a glycolipid that inhibits bacterial surface attachment and biofilm formation by remodeling the outer membrane interface without killing bacteria.

The paper introduces a model to simulate E. coli division site morphology by coupling mechanochemical processes with mechanical stress.

This study identifies PBP1b's specialized role in E. coli division site fortification against osmotic rupture, showing it functions independently of LpoB and requires an extended N-terminus for recruitment by FtsA.

The paper uses high-resolution imaging and biophysical methods to show that Lewy pathology in Parkinson's disease consists mainly of a crowded membranous medley of vesicles and dysmorphic organelles, with only a small fraction containing proteinaceous filaments.
