β-Lactam Antibiotics Representative Compounds: Penicillin, Cephalosporins Application: β-lactam antibiotics incorporate a nitrogen-containing β-lactam ring that plays a vital role in combating bacterial cell wall synthesis. Penicillin, for example, binds to bacterial cell wall synthesis enzymes, inhibiting their function and causing ...
Understanding Bacterial Genome Editing Bacterial genome editing is the process of changing the genes in a bacterium. ...
In addition, supplementation of conventionally reared mice with specific bacterial strains resulted in increased body weight, elevated LDL and cholesterol levels, and altered expression of some genes involved in lipid transport. ...

They exhibit antimicrobial activity against the same bacterial strain from which they are produced or against strains of closely related species. ...
The gut microbiota of a healthy individual consists of six phyla (Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Clostridium, and Microflora verrucosa) containing more than 100 species of bacteria and about 200 different bacterial strains. However, 90% of the gut microbiota is predominantly composed of members of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes. ...
Antibiotics, able to effectively treat bacterial infections in humans, animals and plants, have enabled some of the greatest advances in modern medicine. Now, however, the emergence of resistant bacterial strains is accelerating, rapidly depleting our arsenal of antibiotics – and with few if any new antibiotics in the pipeline. ...
A novel bacterial strain Klebsiella sp. Y1 was isolated from the soil of a constructed wetland, and it was identified based on the 16S rDNA sequence analysis. ...
Here we report a newly isolated bacterial strain BA11 from soil, capable of fermenting glycerol to 1,3 PDO, and has been identified to be a strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae. Strain BA11 was fast growing showing peak 1,3 PDO production in 6 h of cultivation with productivity of 1.2 g/L-h without the addition of Vitamin B12. ...
Characterisations were carried out by polymerase chain reaction of the 16S rRNA gene of bacterial strain. Using special culture media, two types of strong heavy metal–resistant bacterial strains were isolated. The first was a sulphate–reducing bacterium identified as Clostridium ganghwense strain HY–42–06. This ...
