A phylogenomic analysis of the
Background The genome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis harbors four copies of a cluster of genes termed mce operons. Despite extensive research that has demonstrated the importance of these operons on infection outcome, their physiological function remains ...

Thoracic Actinomycosis: A Rare Cause of Pleural Thickening. [PDF]
We report a case of a man who presented with a chest wall mass and was found to have pleural thickening on PET, with features concerning for mesothelioma. Further investigation revealed a diagnosis of actinomyces, a rare infectious cause of pleural thickening.

F420H2-dependent degradation of aflatoxin and other furanocoumarins is widespread throughout the actinomycetales. [PDF]
Two classes of F(420)-dependent reductases (FDR-A and FDR-B) that can reduce aflatoxins and thereby degrade them have previously been isolated from Mycobacterium smegmatis. One class, the FDR-A enzymes, has up to 100 times more activity than the other. F(

Bacterial communities in soils as indicators of the potential of syenite as an agromineral [PDF]
The objective of this work was to identify microbial communities associated with the surfaces of alkali feldspars and to determine whether these microbes might be involved in the weathering of these rocks for agronomic benefit.

Motile Nocardoid Actinomycetales [PDF]
The properties of 42 strains of nocardoid (nocardioform) bacteria were compared. The results indicate that the organism previously called Nocardia turbata does not belong to the genus Nocardia nor does it fit into any of the previously described genera.

Actinomycetales from Corn [PDF]
Mesophilic Actinomycetales were isolated from whole corn, brewer's grits, and break flour received from three different mills. In addition, strains were isolated from high-moisture (27%) field corn; high-moisture, silo-stored corn (untreated); and high-moisture corn treated with ammonia ...

Some characteristics of the microbial community of reservoir fluids of the Romashkinskoe field
The condition of oil wells is reflected by the abundance and species composition of microorganisms in their reservoir fluids. However, such microorganisms are often present in small numbers, which hampers their analysis.

Gut Microbiome–Metabolite Interactions Contribute to Esophageal Cancer Risk: Evidence From Mendelian Randomization and Multiomics Integration [PDF]
Background Growing evidence implicates gut microbiota (GM) in the pathogenesis of esophageal cancer (EC). However, the causal nature of this association—particularly the potential mediating role of circulating metabolites—remains insufficiently clarified, especially across EC subtypes.
