Cyclic lipodepsipeptides produced by Pseudomonas spp.(Ps-CLPs) are biosurfactants that
constitute a diverse class of versatile bioactive natural compounds with promising …

Microorganisms produce active surface agents called lipopeptides (LPs) which are
amphiphilic in nature. They are cyclic or linear compounds and are predominantly isolated …

Several experimental and theoretical studies have extensively investigated the effects of a
large diversity of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) on model lipid bilayers and living cells …

Species of Burkholderia are highly versatile being found not only abundantly in soil, but also
as plants and animals' commensals or pathogens. Their complex multireplicon genomes …

Pseudomonas lipopeptides (Ps-LPs) play crucial roles in bacterial physiology, host–microbe
interactions and plant disease control. Beneficial LP producers have mainly been isolated …

In Pseudomonas lipopeptides, the D-configuration of amino acids is generated by
dedicated, dual-function epimerization/condensation (E/C) domains. The increasing …
