Congratulations to YuZhang He!

Congrats to Dr YuZhang He for the latest publication on Frontiers Pharmacology “A Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate Response Element-binding Protein Inhibitor Enhances the Antibacterial Activity of Polymyxin B by Inhibiting the ATP hydrolyzation activity of CrrB”. In this work, Dr He assisted the collaborator to prove that the P151L mutation of CrrB mediates the resistance of bacteria to the enhancement of 666-15 by precise genome editing of Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Welcome Yujie Sheng!

Yujie physically joined the group on 29th July, 2022, as a master student of Shenzhen University. He is the second master student of Liu group, and will explore the mechanism of Klebsiella pneumoniae caused liver abscesses. Good luck and enjoy the new journey!

Welcome Mingyue Luo!

Mingyue joined the group on 20th, June, 2022. He will work together with Dr He to develop new and efficient genetic manipulation tools for anaerobic bacteria. We wish him good luck to make powerful tools!

Cell culture room is ready!

Our cell culture room is fully equipped and ready to take off! We will use cell line and organoids to study pathogenesis of bacteria.
