We discovered that S. epidermidis attaches glucose to its wall teichoic acids, which determines the binding behaviour of several bacteriophages. Now in @mbiojournal: https://t.co/xjz8Rmf1I8
Thanks to @AndreasPeschel1 @JanesKrusche, Cristina De Castro, Christoph Mayer and others.
Are you interested in bacteriophage-host interactions?
- Please have a look at our recently published review on S. epidermidis phages: https://t.co/053gCbQMZu
Thanks to @JanesKrusche @XinDu17, Ahmed Elsherbini and @AndreasPeschel1
If you are interested in phages interacting with wall teichoic acid of Staphylococci, check out our new preprint from the @AndreasPeschel1 lab on S. epidermidis GroP wall teichoic acid glycosylation with glucose. https://t.co/WwbeFeu6EZ
Prior #Saureus exposure—a pitfall to vaccine success. New work finds that prior #Staphylococcus aureus infection preprograms the host immune system to respond poorly to vaccines, with antibody competition further reducing efficacy https://t.co/RN2OTEl244
Fresh from the paper mill - excited to present our new paper on the incredible activity of linker-modified endolysins against #Staphylococcus on skin - many thanks to #FritzEichenseher, #MathiasSchmelcher, many other co-authors, and support from @Micreos !

For anyone who's spent way too long creating posters in PPT at 4000% zoom🔎😭
BioRender Poster Builder is officially launched! Magically resize columns, customize colors, vector export, and more🙌🏽 It's free to use and currently in beta. Lmk your thoughts! https://t.co/YWhw1aFnQD
Our work on SmdA - a new protein affecting cell division in staphylococci - has now been published in @mbiojournal. @OlgaShapaval@DanStreamer

Paper by Pawel Markwitz (University of Wroclaw, Poland) and colleagues in @ISMEJournal: Genome-driven elucidation of #phage-host interplay and impact of phage resistance evolution on #bacterial fitness

Fresh from the press ! Cool work by Leandra Knecht and colleagues from the Lars Fieseler lab @ZHAW shows that #Erwinia#amylovora#phage S6 requires bacterial #cellulose for infection and encodes a #cellulase to degrade it - recycling done the phage way !

We are pleased to see the growing interest in attending VoM2022. However taking into account this time of extreme uncertainties and sadness for Europe and the World we have been able to extend the abstract submission deadline please check the new dates: https://t.co/cB9FPBSqSP
