Journal Article
Willis, A. R., Moore, C., Mazon-Moya, M., Krokowski, S., Lambert, C., Till, R., …Sockett, R. E. (2016). Injections of Predatory Bacteria Work Alongside Host Immune Cells to Treat Shigella Infection in Zebrafish Larvae. Current Biology, 26(24), 3343-3351. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2016.09.067

Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus are predatory bacteria that invade and kill a range of Gram-negative bacterial pathogens in natural environments and in vitro [ 1 and 2]. In this study, we investigated Bdellovibrio as an injected, antibacterial treatment i...

Tuning the electrical conductance of metalloporphyrin supramolecular wires (2016)
Journal Article
Noori, M., Aragones, A. C., Di Palma, G., Darwish, N., Bailey, S. W., Al-Galiby, Q., …Colin J., L. (in press). Tuning the electrical conductance of metalloporphyrin supramolecular wires. Scientific Reports, 6, Article 37352. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep37352

In contrast with conventional single-molecule junctions, in which the current flows parallel to the long axis or plane of a molecule, we investigate the transport properties of M(II)-5,15-diphenylporphyrin (M-DPP) single-molecule junctions (M=Co, Ni,...

Interrupting peptidoglycan deacetylation during Bdellovibrio predator-prey interaction prevents ultimate destruction of prey wall, liberating bacterial-ghosts (2016)
Journal Article
Lambert, C., Lerner, T. R., Bui, N. K., Somers, H., Aizawa, S., Liddell, S., …Sockett, R. E. (2016). Interrupting peptidoglycan deacetylation during Bdellovibrio predator-prey interaction prevents ultimate destruction of prey wall, liberating bacterial-ghosts. Scientific Reports, 6:26010(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/srep26010

The peptidoglycan wall, located in the periplasm between the inner and outer membranes of the cell envelope in Gram-negative bacteria, maintains cell shape and endows osmotic robustness. Predatory Bdellovibrio bacteria invade the periplasm of other b...
