@MaritaMarli has studied competence in Strep dysgalactiae strains from bovines and humans - and found a method to make mutants using natural transformation! @DanStreamer@DPorcellato @UniNMBU Great collaboration with Oddvar Oppegaard @medofak_uib.

Our work on genetic determinants for S. aureus fitness in milk is now available online. The study also exemplifies how milk can modulate antibiotic susceptibility. Congrats @MaritaMarli and thanks to all collaborators (@DPorcellato@JWVeening@vincentdebakker@liuxuescience)!
Great collaboration with @Morten3891 to figure out which genes are required for Staphylococcus aureus to live in milk. Important to know due to Staphs ability to cause bovine mastitis and food poisoning https://t.co/dA8CQcqgTI

Checkout @Bevika2 preprint! She used CRISPRi-seq to determine antibiotic-stress signatures, specifically of pneumococci treated with fluoroquinolone antibiotics. It's a really powerful approach revealing a surprising antibiotic combination therapy. 1/9 https://t.co/ClAZgaJokO
@felixrl_ took on a ~50-yr-old mystery in #Staph aureus cell biology and came out on top! Check out his paper on how #Staphylococcus aureus chooses its cell division plane, how it forms clusters, and why all this matters during infection...

Fly-fishing for flagella... Check out the lovely perspective by Andrew Lovering and @SimonCaulton 🙏🙏 about our findings on bacterial predation via ixotrophy. https://t.co/M5lru1orQx
A fishy tale about the the Salmon Microbial Genome Atlas is now out in @NatureMicrobiol. We hope this culture and genome biobank provides a functional resource to the community and supports the next generation of salmon gut microbiome projects. https://t.co/ChalIbuuhO
Congratulations @LambertClara6 and everyone on “The double-edged role of FASII regulator FabT in Streptococcus pyogenes infection” @NatureComms https://t.co/DTmPP5rBsD
I am very happy to be a part of this work! 🥰

New article out in Comm Biol by 1st authors @HiraJonathan and Bhupender Singh. Check out if interested in a) Cellular phenotypic heterogeneity in bacterial pathogen populations & how cell individuality shapes pop. behavior b) S. aureus c) new applications for chemical probes.
Excited to share this preprint! Our multiscale approach has finally shed light on the essential roles of the structural protein HU in pneumococcal nucleoid dynamics. Thanks to all co-authors for their contribution to this collaborative work.
Self-immunity towards a novel competence-induced streptococcal murein hydrolase is mediated by a Fem-transferase-like protein https://t.co/nim4m58sLr #biorxiv_micrbio
What does DivIVA do? New research in @mbiojournal reveals that, in Streptococcus pneumoniae, this structural protein is a key player in the orchestration of cell division and elongation. Get the details, including how scientists think DivIVA works, here: https://t.co/HjEll6BKWS
Congratulations to @vincentdebakker for receiving a 'Prix de Faculté' @FBM_UNIL@unil for his PhD thesis!
Amazing thesis, and student! Wishing you all the best in Boston! #ProudPI
📢Join us at the #NFM annual meeting October 22, 2024 @NMBU. Abstracts and registrations are now open. Dive into the latest research on fundamental and applied #microbiology#infection & gut #microbiome 👇(🧵1/2)
Very excited to share our latest preprint: a breakthrough in surface protein trafficking that we've studied for a long time. Perhaps more important is, the beauty of synchronized cell envelope biogenesis.
