Ink-jet 3D printing as a strategy for developing bespoke non-eluting biofilm resistant medical devices (2021)
Journal Article
He, Y., Luckett, J., Begines, B., Dubern, J. F., Hook, A. L., Prina, E., …Wildman, R. D. (2022). Ink-jet 3D printing as a strategy for developing bespoke non-eluting biofilm resistant medical devices. Biomaterials, 281, Article 121350. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biomaterials.2021.121350

Chronic infection as a result of bacterial biofilm formation on implanted medical devices is a major global healthcare problem requiring new biocompatible, biofilm-resistant materials. Here we demonstrate how bespoke devices can be manufactured throu... Read More about Ink-jet 3D printing as a strategy for developing bespoke non-eluting biofilm resistant medical devices.

NirA Is an Alternative Nitrite Reductase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa with Potential as an Antivirulence Target (2021)
Journal Article
Fenn, S., Dubern, J., Cigana, C., De Simone, M., Lazenby, J., Juhas, M., …Cámara, M. (2021). NirA Is an Alternative Nitrite Reductase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa with Potential as an Antivirulence Target. mBio, 12(2), Article e00207-21. https://doi.org/10.1128/mbio.00207-21

The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces an arsenal of virulence factors causing a wide range of diseases in multiple hosts and is difficult to eradicate due to its intrinsic resistance to antibiotics. With the antibacterial pipelin... Read More about NirA Is an Alternative Nitrite Reductase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa with Potential as an Antivirulence Target.

AbaM Regulates Quorum Sensing, Biofilm Formation and Virulence in Acinetobacter baumannii (2021)
Journal Article
López-Martín, M., Dubern, J., Alexander, M. R., & Williams, P. (2021). AbaM Regulates Quorum Sensing, Biofilm Formation and Virulence in Acinetobacter baumannii. Journal of Bacteriology, 203(8), Article e00635-20. https://doi.org/10.1128/jb.00635-20

Acinetobacter baumannii possesses a single divergent luxR/luxI-type quorum sensing (QS) locus named abaR/abaI. This locus also contains a third gene located between abaR and abaI which we term abaM that codes for an uncharacterized member of the RsaM...
