A molecular systems approach to unravel mechanisms and targets in antifolate-resistant bacteria and cancers
Antifolates such as trimethoprim (TMP) and methotrexate (MTX) widely used for treating bacterial infections and certain cancers respectively, inhibit dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) in the folate pathway. However, the use ... -
Regulation of RecA nucleoprotein filament stability by RecX and the effects of RecA-membrane interaction on the activities of RecA in mycobacteria
E. coli RecA is a multifunctional protein known to be associated with the cell membrane, forming foci often located at the cell poles, which gets redistributed along the length of the cell during SOS response. Several lines ... -
Studies on the roles of Lon protease and its substrates during antibiotic resistance in Escherichia coli: modulatory effects of nitroaromatics and nitrofurantoin
Bacteria adapt to environmental stresses, including antibiotic stress, by regulating various genes and metabolic pathways. In prokaryotes, the energy-dependent protein degradation is controlled primarily by two ...
