Reconstruction and analysis of genome-scale metabolic networks in single organisms and microbial communities
Microorganisms are a key component in the chain of life. They are essential for agriculture, produce a large proportion of oxygen, and play a central role in the cycle of elements. Microorganisms are widely used in the production of food and alcoholic beve ...
EPFL2024Recent advances in therapeutic targets identification and development of treatment strategies towards Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections
The opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the causal agent of a wide variety of infections. This non-fermentative Gram-negative bacillus can colonize zones where the skin barrier is weakened, such as wounds or burns. It also causes infecti ...
BMC2023Preparation and Analysis of Bacteria Surface-Modified with Polymer Nanoparticles
Cell-based drug carriers present an interesting approach to improve the targeted delivery of therapeutic drugs in vivo. Specifically, bacterial cells possess interesting properties such as motility and sensing that allow some strains to selectively target ...
EPFL2022Spatio-temporal modeling of the crowding conditions and metabolic variability in microbial communities
Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Liliana Angeles Martinez
The metabolic capabilities of the species and the local environment shape the microbial interactions in a community either through the exchange of metabolic products or the competition for the resources. Cells are often arranged in close proximity to each ...
PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE2021Molecular insights into Vibrio cholerae’s intra-amoebal host-pathogen interactions
Graham Knott, Melanie Blokesch, Sandrine Stutzmann, Candice Stoudmann, Catherine Maclachlan, Natalia Carolina Drebes Dorr, Tiziana Scrignari, Charles Ulric V Van der Henst, Audrey Sophie Vanhove
Vibrio cholerae, which causes the diarrheal disease cholera, is a species of bacteria commonlyfound in aquatic habitats. Within such environments, the bacterium must defend itselfagainst predatory protozoan grazers. Amoebae are prominent grazers, withAcant ...
2018Development of 3,5-Dinitrobenzylsulfanyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles and Thiadiazoles as Selective Antitubercular Agents Active Against Replicating and Nonreplicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Stewart Cole, Anthony Vocat, Edina Rita Székely
Herein, we report the discovery and structure activity relationships of 5-substituted-2-[(3,5-dinitrobenzyl)-sulfanyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles as a new class of antituberculosis agents. The majority of these compounds exhibited outstanding ...
American Chemical Society2016Bacteria inactivation during the drying of struvite fertilizers produced from stored urine
Tamar Kohn, Loïc Decrey, Simon Schindelholz, Manfred Schoger, Kai Udert
Human urine can be processed into market-attractive fertilizers like struvite; however, concerns regarding the microbial safety of such products remain. The present study evaluated the inactivation of in situ heterotrophs, total bacteria as observed by flo ...
Amer Chemical Soc2016Inactivation kinetics and mechanisms of viral and bacterial pathogen surrogates during urine nitrification
Tamar Kohn, Ariane Schertenleib, Kai Udert
This paper assesses the inactivation performance and mechanisms in urine nitrification reactors using bacteria and bacteriophages as surrogates for human pathogens. Two parallel continuous-flow moving bed biofilm reactors (MBBRs) were operated over a two-m ...
Royal Soc Chemistry2015Structure of viral membrane-penetrating machines by electron cryo-microscopy and tomography
My PhD thesis aims to obtain the structure of several bacteriophages, including so-called “jumbo” phages, using the electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) and to study the structural transformation of these viruses as they attach and infect the host cell. We a ...
