New preprint from us! The latest part of our C. difficile vancomycin resistance story. We identified a new two-component system (VnrRS) that can control expression of the vanG pathway - just needs one amino acid change @buddlejess.bsky.social @brockhurstlab.bsky.social @claireyt.bsky.social

A novel two-component system controls vancomycin resistance in epidemic Clostridioides difficile

The glycopeptide antibiotic vancomycin is the frontline treatment for C. difficile infection in the UK. There have been only sporadic reports of resistance in the clinic but testing is rare so the tru...

📢 Preprint - not peer-reviewed🤞: Development of #immunity to #StrepA in The Gambia. We assessed IgG to conserved and M protein antigens across the life course, exploring association with protection against infection: www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1... #IDSky #Immunosky

Early life serological profiles and the development of natural protective humoral immunity to Streptococcus pyogenes in a high burden setting

Streptococcus pyogenes leads to 500,000 deaths annually; many due to rheumatic heart disease in low-income settings. Limited understanding of natural protective immunity to S. pyogenes hinders vaccine...
