A <em>Photorhabdus</em> natural product inhibits insect juvenile hormone epoxide hydrolase (Publications)
Simple urea compounds ("phurealipids") have been identified from the entomopathogenic bacterium Photorhabdus luminescens, and their biosynthesis was elucidated. Very similar analogues of these compoun
Investing in justice: ethics, evidence, and the eradication investment cases for lymphatic filariasis and onchocerciasis (Publications)
It has been suggested that initiatives to eradicate specific communicable diseases need to be informed by eradication investment cases to assess the feasibility, costs, and consequences of eradication
Predominance of <em>dfrG</em> as determinant of trimethoprim resistance in imported <em>Staphylococcus aureus</em> (Publications)
To investigate the global occurrence of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole resistance and the genetic mechanisms of trimethoprim resistance, we analysed Staphylococcus aureus from travel-associated skin an
Structure elucidation and activity of kolossin A, the D-/L-pentadecapeptide product of a giant nonribosomal peptide synthetase (Publications)
The largest continuous bacterial nonribosomal peptide synthetase discovered so far is described. It consists of 15 consecutive modules arising from an uninterrupted, fully functional gene in the entom
Molecular and culture-based diagnosis of <em>Clostridium difficile</em> isolates from Côte d'Ivoire after prolonged storage at disrupted cold chain... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Although Clostridium difficile is a major cause of diarrhoea, its epidemiology in tropical settings is poorly understood. Strain characterisation requires work-up in specialised laboratori
The association of air pollution and depressed mood in 70,928 individuals from four European cohorts (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Exposure to ambient air pollution may be associated with impaired mental health, including depression. However, evidence originates mainly from animal studies and epidemiological studies i
Geographical and temporal structures of <em>Legionella pneumophila</em> sequence types in Comunitat Valenciana (Spain), 1998 to 2013 (Publications)
Legionella pneumophila is an accidental human pathogen associated with aerosol formation in water-related sources. High recombination rates make Legionella populations genetically diverse, and nearly
Synthesis and antiprotozoal activities of new 3-azabicyclo[3.2.2]nonanes (Publications)
Some antimalarial agents in use typically bear basic side chains as ligands. Such ligands were attached to the amino substituent of a bridgehead atom of already antiprotozoal active 3-azabicyclo[3.2.2
