Assembly, architecture and functional roles of microbial surface layers - Nature Reviews Microbiology
Surface layers (S-layers) are ubiquitous protein assemblies that coat prokaryotic cells, with their functional roles increasingly coming into focus. In this Review, Isbilir and colleagues discuss rece...

Bedaquiline resistance driven by the MmpS5L5 efflux pump is threatening the drug regimens used to treat MDR-TB.

In our new preprint, we used structural and genetic approaches to better understand how MmpS5L5 effluxes bedaquiline and how future resistance may evolve. 🧵🔽

Structural and functional analysis of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis MmpS5L5 efflux pump presages a pathway to increased bedaquiline resistance
Bedaquiline, an antitubercular drug that targets ATP-synthase, is a key component of a new oral drug regimen that has revolutionized the treatment of multi drug resistant tuberculosis. Clinical bedaqu...
