Flaviflexus huanghaiensis gen. nov., sp. nov., an actinobacterium of the family Actinomycetaceae

open access: closedInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2012
Strain H5T was isolated from a sediment sample collected from the coastal area of Qingdao, China. The cells were Gram-stain-positive, non-motile, straight or curved rods. The temperature range for growth was 20–37 °C and the pH for growth ranged from 6.5 to 9.0, with optimum growth occurring in the temperature range 28–30 °C and pH range 7.5–8.0 ...

The causal correlation between gut microbiota abundance and pathogenesis of cervical cancer: a bidirectional mendelian randomization study [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundObservational studies and animal experiments suggested potential relevance between gut microbiota (GM) and cervical cancer (CC), but the relevance of this association remains to be clarified.MethodsWe performed a two-sample bidirectional ...

Evolution of substrate specificity in a retained enzyme driven by gene loss [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2017
The connection between gene loss and the functional adaptation of retained proteins is still poorly understood. We apply phylogenomics and metabolic modeling to detect bacterial species that are evolving by gene loss, with the finding that ...

Indicator bacteria taxa reveal breeding site origins of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Research Notes
Background The microbiota of adult mosquitoes reflects both their life history and the environments they encounter. Linking specific bacterial communities in adult mosquitoes to their larval aquatic habitats would suggest that microbiota profiling can ...

Impact of gut microbiota on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: insights from a leave-one-out cross-validation study [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionEnteric dysbacteriosis is strongly associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the underlying causal relationship remains unknown. Thus, the present study aimed to investigate the relationship between gut microbiota and

Insights into Butyrate Production in a Controlled Fermentation System via Gene Predictions [PDF]

open access: yesmSystems, 2017
Butyrate is a common fatty acid produced in important fermentative systems, such as the human/animal gut and other H2 production systems. Despite its importance, there is little information on the partnerships between butyrate producers and other ...

A genome-wide association study reveals the relationship between human genetic variation and the nasal microbiome

open access: yesCommunications Biology
The nasal cavity harbors diverse microbiota that contributes to human health and respiratory diseases. However, whether and to what extent the host genome shapes the nasal microbiome remains largely unknown. Here, by dissecting the human genome and nasal

Mendelian randomization reveals association of gut microbiota with Henoch-Schönlein purpura and immune thrombocytopenia. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Hematol
Gut microbiota have been linked to immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and Henoch–Schönlein purpura (HSP) in recent studies, but a cause-and-effect relationship is unclear.
