Bacteria as Ovipositional Attractants for \u3ci\u3eAedes Aegypti\u3c/i\u3e (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The effectiveness of selected bacterial species as ovipositional attractants for Aedes aegypti was compared. Bacterial washes, in glass containers, were utilized as ovipositional substrates and subsequent egg counts determined the degree of ovipositional

Synovial Fluid‐derived Micrococcus Luteus G18 Exacerbates Osteoarthritis Progression by Promoting Chondrocyte Degradation via TLR2/JNK/AP‐1 Signaling Pathway

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Traditionally considered sterile, the articular cavity is now recognized to harbor microbial communities influencing osteoarthritis (OA). Integrating 16S rRNA sequencing and culturomics, Micrococcus luteus is enriched in advanced OA. Notably, M. luteus G18 exacerbates cartilage degeneration via TLR2/JNK/AP‐1‐mediated ECM disruption, revealing intra ...

Principles for Rigorous Design and Application of Synthetic Microbial Communities

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SynComs are artificially designed to enable inter‐species metabolic interactions, metabolic division of labor, and ecological interactions that can elicit phenotypes like colonization stability and environmental adaptation. This systematic review explores the processes used to construct SynComs, the assessment of the mechanisms of metabolic interaction

Effect of priming and seed-coating when associated with Bacillus subtilis in maize seeds Efeito do condicionamento fisiológico e da peliculização associados à Bacillus subtilis em sementes de milho

open access: yesRevista Ciência Agronômica, 2013
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect on the physiological performance of maize seeds (Zea mays L.) of micro-priming with Bacillus subtilis associated with techniques of water restriction and seed-coating.

Mechanism‐Driven Screening of Membrane‐Targeting and Pore‐Forming Antimicrobial Peptides

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
To combat antibiotic resistance, this study employs mechanism‐driven screening with machine learning to identify pore‐forming antimicrobial peptides from amphibian and human metaproteomes. Seven peptides are validated, showing minimal toxicity and membrane disruption.

The Importance of Being Imperfect: Structure and Function of Bacterial Amyloid

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Functional bacterial amyloids such as CsgA and FapC have been widely studied to understand the relationship between aggregation and function. The recently solved structure of FapC reveals a Greek‐key motif in which extensive hydrogen bonding and packing interactions formed by residues in conserved imperfect repeats stabilize a β‐solenoid core.

Multiplicação de Bacillus subtilis em vinhaça e viabilidade no controle da meloidoginose, em cana-de-açúcar Multiplication of Bacillus subtilis in vinasse and viability to control root-knot in sugarcane

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2011
Objetivou-se, com este trabalho, avaliar o controle da meloidoginose e o crescimento da cana-de-açúcar, em função da aplicação de Bacillus subtilis ao solo após multiplicação em vinhaça.

Staphylococcus aureus DivIB is a peptidoglycan-binding protein that is required for a morphological checkpoint in cell division [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Bacterial cell division is a fundamental process that requires the coordinated actions of a number of proteins which form a complex macromolecular machine known as the divisome.

Comparison of Pre‐ and Postoperative Gut Microbiota Diversity in Patients With Rectal Cancer Undergoing Stoma Creation and Closure

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We investigated the impact of temporary stoma creation and closure on gut microbiota diversity in rectal cancer patients. 16S rRNA sequencing revealed that microbial diversity significantly decreased postoperatively in the stoma group but remained stable in non‐stoma patients.
