Excited to share our newest work on the role of #phage on #Listeria virulence - phage-resistant #Listeria ivanovii feature lack of #teichoic acid glycosylation, but loose #InternalinB - a classical trade-off ! Nice work from Eric Sumrall & @shenyang84 👏

@biorxiv_micrbio I guess more people like sweet and sour taste. Well, this is also the case for virulent bacteria and their predatory phages. Our new study shows how Listeria's surface carbohydrate plays a role in interaction with phage and mammalian host. Check it out!!!

Glucose decoration on wall-teichoic acid is required for phage adsorption and InlB-mediated virulence in Listeria ivanovii https://t.co/Aten3o3HnL #biorxiv_micrbio
Yeah ! Really excited that our work on the atomic structure of #Listeria#bacteriophage#endolysin CBD500 and molecular recognition of #teichoic acid ligands has now been published in Chem Sci - amazing work by Yang Shen and many coauthors - thank you ! 👏

A 7-year endeavor is now published in Chemical Science https://t.co/KfdHWqA0xu Check out our newest publication which describes the molecular details on how a phage endolysin recognizes the bacterial surface to enable targeted killing.
Excited to present LUX-MS!
Now enabling light-controlled detection of cell surface signalling architectures of (small-molecule) drugs, host-pathogen interactions and Immunosynapses for theranostic discovery.
Thanks to all collaborators @ETH_en and @bwollsch@nesvilab@biognosys
The story has evolved so much (in a positive way) along the journey, but we finally found a way to put everything together. You will see how smart a protein is when trying to secure its sugar partner.
Finally !!! After many years and many efforts of many students 🤓, we can now explain the atomic details of super selective recognition of the #Listeria cell wall by a #bacteriophage#endolysin - amazing work by Yang Shen and coauthors now on #bioRxiv !
