This is a cool news!

Can membrane stress protect mycobacteria? https://t.co/A8UkCj1Ia0

[Hesper Rego @Rego_Lab]

@Kuldeep_R_Gupta, working together with @celenagwin, discovered that a protein of unknown function in mycobacteria (PgfA) is recruited to one side of the cell by our favorite protein LamA, where it coordinates lipid trafficking and fast polar growth

Great comprehensive and COMPLICATED research about M.abscessus came out!

They identify a few critical virulence gene by analyzing 331 clinical isolates! This is awesome!

Congrats @luc_boeck and @AndresFloto !!

Great optimization works of Bioimaging method in mycobacteria by @SiouxsieW !

I appreciate your experiments!

Beautiful 3D modeling of peptidoglycan layer!

Interesting paper came out from TAKAGI lab in @JaistMs

I did not know osmotic pressure help the Lo and Ld domain separation by altering line tension.

An interesting approach to understand the NTM diseases.

Most of infected people had mental health problems such as anxiety (29.4%), depression (18.8%), or sleep & diet problem (16.6%) because of the long duration of treatment.

We deserve a better drug! https://t.co/GyQH8VUbR1

Great paper by @shukla_rhythm in
@MarkusWeingarth lab!

This paper is exciting because make me speculate how mycobacteria maintain membrane integrity while Lipid II is concentrated on a particular membrane region!

Congrats!!
