Microbial genome as a fluctuating system: Distribution and correlation of coding sequence lengths [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 The length of coding sequence series in microbial genomes were regarded as a fluctuating system and characterized by the methods of statistical physics. The distribution and the correlatin properties of 50 genomes including bacteria and several archaea were investigated. The distribution was investigated by rank-size analysis (Zipf's law. We found that

Noncoding RNAs in Host–Microbiota Interaction
Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.The intricate interplay between gut microbiota and the host exerts a profound impact on host biological processes and disease development. This review highlights the pivotal role of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) in this interaction. Host ncRNAs regulate gene expression and microbiota composition, whereas microbial small RNAs (sRNAs) modulate host gene ...

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.Vibrio alginolyticus NBRC 15630, Vibrio parahaemolyticus ATCC 17802, Shewanella algae DW01, and Shewanella algae ATCC 51192 bacterial strains were found in the Mud crab brood and egg samples. All isolates were found to be sensitive to cefotaxime, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, and nitrofurantoin antibiotics.

An observation of circular RNAs in bacterial RNA-seq data [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of RNA with an important role in micro RNA (miRNA) regulation recently discovered in Human and various other eukaryotes as well as in archaea. Here, we have analyzed RNA-seq data obtained from {\it Enterococcus faecalis} and {\it Escherichia coli} in a way similar to previous studies performed on eukaryotes.

Is the unfoldome widespread in proteomes? [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 The term unfoldome has been recently used to indicate the universe of intrinsically disordered proteins. These proteins are characterized by an ensemble of high-flexible interchangeable conformations and therefore they can interact with many targets without requiring pre-existing stereo-chemical complementarity. It has been suggested that intrinsically

A Bacterial Sulfotransferase Catalyzes an Unusual Di‐Sulfation in Natural Products Biosynthesis
ChemBioChem, EarlyView.Herein, a unique sulfotransferase, AdpST, is identified from the adp biosynthetic gene clusters (BGC) in Streptomyces davaonensis DSM101723 and demonstrates that AdpST possesses di‐sulfation activity, which is unprecedented for bacterial phosphoadenosine‐5’‐phosphosulfate (PAPS)‐dependent sulfotransferases. It is further shown that the adp BGC contains

ChemBioChem, EarlyView.In the nascent processes of the beginnings and evolution of life, nucleobases and especially purines, ribonucleos(t)ides and primitive RNAs have been continuously modified. A RNA‐peptide world and key metabolic pathways probably have emerged from the corresponding chemical modifications resulting from adenine deamination, purine alkylation and ...

ChemBioChem, EarlyView.Regulated intramembrane proteolysis is crucial for functional proteome in all kingdoms of life. The task of cleaving transmembrane proteins within the unique environment of the lipid bilayer presents biochemical challenges that has been solved by integral membrane proteases (IMPRs).
