Bacteria from the Neisseriaceae family come in different shapes and flavors. Check out our new preprint, that describe some buccal symbionts with a strange way of dividing ()()()().@inrsciences

Our paper on lytic transglycosylases out in @eLife! Dispelling myths about LTG physiological role in a great collaboration with @CavaLab_MIMS. As a side note (unsurprising, but heretofore not firmly established): LTGs are indeed essential for viability.

What do we know about peptidoglycan editing in intracellular Salmonella?https://t.co/IDdniIvU3F This work has been the result of a fantastic collaboration with our friends from the Garcia del Portillo "twitter-less" lab at the CNB in Spain.😉💪@mims_umea @CNB_CSIC @smcastanheira

Look who's on the cover of @Dev_Cell:the humble soil bacterium #Bacillus subtilis,in the act of sporulating,depicted using marbles and wooden blocks! Our paper tackles a ~50 yr old mystery of how the cell coordinates assembly of 2 supramolecular structures:https://t.co/Okj9zcvHd3

Happy to share my latest work in @MarioFeldman9 lab . We discovered a bifunctional PGase effector in A. baumannii that can digest the CW of both Gram (-) and (+) bacteria. Big thanks to co-author @JuvenalLopez20 and collaborators at @FelipecavaM lab.
