MEMBRANE TRANSPORTERS OF THE MAJOR FACILITATOR SUPERFAMILY ARE ESSENTIAL FOR LONG-TERM MAINTENANCE OF PHENOTYPIC TOLERANCE TO MULTIPLE ANTIBIOTICS IN E. COLI

Membrane Transporters of the Major Facilitator Superfamily Are Essential for Long-Term Maintenance of Phenotypic Tolerance to Multiple Antibiotics in E. coli

ABSTRACT Antibiotic tolerance is not only the key underlying the cause of recurrent and chronic bacterial infections but it is also a factor linked to exacerbation of diseases, such as tuberculosis, cystic fibrosis-associated lung infection, and candidiasis.This phenomenon was previously attributed to a switch to physiological dormancy in a bacteri

The GTPase Rab26 links synaptic vesicles to the autophagy pathway

Small GTPases of the Rab family not only regulate target recognition in membrane traffic but also control other cellular functions such as cytoskeletal transport and autophagy.Here we show that Rab26 is specifically associated with clusters of synaptic vesicles in neurites.Overexpression Boxing - Gloves of active but not of GDP-preferring Rab26 enh
