Systematic identification of gene families for use as markers for phylogenetic and phylogeny- driven ecological studies of bacteria and archaea and their major subgroups [PDF]
With the astonishing rate that the genomic and metagenomic sequence data sets are accumulating, there are many reasons to constrain the data analyses.

Recognition of Ribosomal RNA Sites in DNA, I. Analysis of the E. coli System [PDF]
The evidence recently presented of specific hybridization between bacterial ribosomal RNA and homologous DNA1-3 has indicated the possibility of a biochemical approach to the problem of the identification of ribosomal RNA sites in DNA.

Taxonomy of anaerobic digestion microbiome reveals biases associated with the applied high throughput sequencing strategies [PDF]
In the past few years, many studies investigated the anaerobic digestion microbiome by means of 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. Results obtained from these studies were compared to each other without taking into consideration the followed procedure for ...

Ribosomal Protein S12 Hastens Nucleation of Co-Transcriptional Ribosome Assembly
Ribosomal subunits begin assembly during transcription of the ribosomal RNA (rRNA), when the rRNA begins to fold and associate with ribosomal proteins (RPs). In bacteria, the first steps of ribosome assembly depend upon recognition of the properly folded

IL-4Rα Blockade by Dupilumab Decreases Staphylococcus aureus Colonization and Increases Microbial Diversity in Atopic Dermatitis. [PDF]
Dupilumab is a fully human antibody to interleukin-4 receptor α that improves the signs and symptoms of moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD). To determine the effects of dupilumab on Staphylococcus aureus colonization and microbial diversity on the ...

Optimizing PCR primers targeting the bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA gene
Background Targeted amplicon sequencing of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene is one of the key tools for studying microbial diversity. The accuracy of this approach strongly depends on the choice of primer pairs and, in particular, on the balance between ...

Transcriptional profiling of colicin-induced cell death of Escherichia coli MG1655 identifies potential mechanisms by which bacteriocins promote bacterial diversity [PDF]
We report the transcriptional response of Escherichia coli MG1655 to damage induced by colicins E3 and E9, bacteriocins that kill cells through inactivation of the ribosome and degradation of chromosomal DNA, respectively. Colicin E9 strongly induced the
