Mutations generate variation, critical for #evolution, but #MutationBias restricts the choice of mutation type. @deepaagashe.bsky.social &co use #Ecoli strains with different mutation biases to show that changing an old bias should yield more beneficial mutations @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/46LjCRt

$Schematic of the key prediction tested in this work. As the transversion (Tv) mutation bias of WT E. coli is shifted away from the ancestral bias, the resulting distribution of fitness effects (DFE) is predicted to change. Specifically, it should shift left with a bias reinforcement, with a lower fraction of beneficial mutations. In contrast, reversing the ancestral bias is predicted to cause right-shifted DFEs with higher proportions of beneficial mutations.$

Not all persister bacteria are dormant! 🦠 Single-cell imaging of over a million #EColi shows that many antibiotic-resistant persisters were actively growing before drug exposure. Persistence appears to be more dynamic than once thought. buff.ly/04T4L1k

Could the key to fighting certain cancers lie in our gut? Scientists explore the role of E. coli strains and colibactin in cancer development. Vaccines and probiotics may offer new hope! #Ecoli #CancerTreatment

E.coli strains linked to cancer: new hope for treatment!

Certain cancers found in the UK may be linked to two particular strains of bacteria. This offers us new vaccine and treatment possibilities

How are bacterial transport machineries regulated by external cues? @brochadolab.bsky.social &co identify environmental chemicals that regulate #transporter transcription, identifying the TF Rob as a key modulator of #EffluxPump expression in #Ecoli #AMR @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/46pUM9Q

Left: Compound-promoter interaction network. Fifty-three significant compound-promoter interactions are shown as edges in a Sankey diagram connecting the compounds (left, source nodes) to the promoters (right, target nodes). Edge thickness represents mean Z-scores (n = 8), while node size represents the total number of interactions. Right: Proposed model for the molecular mechanism of caffeine-ciprofloxacin antagonism. Caffeine triggers expression of MicF small RNA in a Rob-dependent manner, which then binds to the 5′-UTR of ompF mRNA to inhibit and decrease OmpF protein levels. This ultimately prevents ciprofloxacin from entering the cell, resulting in caffeine-ciprofloxacin antagonism

In #ScienceTranslationalMedicine, researchers isolate a bacteriophage that switches off a key virulence mechanism in adherent #Ecoli that drive Crohn’s disease, and can attenuate colitis in mice and augment the efficacy of low doses of budesonide. scim.ag/4vSF2G5
