#Actinobacteria living inside invertebrates in the Arctic Sea

#Prospecting novel habitats for promising new antibacterial drugs, to solve the global antibiotics crisis

#Global antibiotics crisis | More and more resistant strains of bacteria are evolving | Rate of discovery of fundamentally new antibiotics has been much slower

#Identifying antivirulence and antibacterial metabolites from actinobacteria extracts

#Discovering compound inhibiting enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) virulence without affecting its growth, and growth-inhibiting compound, both in actinobacteria from Arctic Ocean

#Automated testing for tantivirulence and antibacterial effect of hundreds of unknown compounds simultaneously

#EPEC strain | Causing severe diarrhea in children under five | EPEC causes disease by adhering to cells in human gut | Once adhered to these cells, EPEC injects virulence factors into host cell to hijack its molecular machinery, ultimately killing it

#Compounds with strong antivirulence or antibacterial activity: T091-5) in genus Rhodococcus, and another from T160-2 of Kocuria

#Inhibiting formation of actin pedestals by EPEC bacteria, key step by which this pathogen attaches to host gut lining

#Inhibiting binding of EPEC to Tir receptor on host cell surface, step necessary to rewire its intracellular processes and cause disease
