Disrupting cell-cell communication to suppress virulence in the bacterium Bacillus cereus
A major public health goal is to identify new strategies for fighting microbes. In Bacillus cereus, a human pathogen, the expression of virulence genes is synchronised and results from communication among bacteria. In a recent study, INRA researchers and Israeli scientists collaborated to develop synthetic peptides capable of interfering with this process. Published on August 14, 2018, in Chemical Communications, the results of this work should lead to novel methods for countering the virulence of bacterial pathogens.
