Protein Homeostasis Impairment Alters Phenotypic Heterogeneity of Biofilm Communities

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
In biofilms, genetically identical cells exhibit diverse gene expression, resulting in subpopulations of functionally distinct and coexisting cell types, such as motile cells, extracellular matrix producers, and spores. Balanced phenotypic heterogeneity produces robust biofilms.

Luminal Phospholipase D Attacks Bacterial Membranes in Dictyostelium discoideum Phagosomes

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
This study shows that PldX, a luminal Phospholipase D, is necessary for the efficient destruction of ingested Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria in Dictyostelium discoideum phagosomes. PldX and the AlyL lysozyme together attack the bacterial membrane and permeabilize it. To date, the molecular substrate of PldX remains to be determined. ABSTRACT Phagocytic

FlhG Cooperates With the Cell Cycle Regulator GpsB to Confine Peritrichous Flagella in B. subtilis

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
FlhG (orange, with activator helix in green) regulates peritrichous flagellation in Bacillus subtilis by interacting with the C‐ring protein FliY (gray, N‐terminus in red) and the cell wall regulator GpsB (N‐terminus in blue, C‐terminus in red). GpsB recruits PBP1 for peptidoglycan synthesis, linking flagellar assembly to cell wall biosynthesis.

Genome‐Wide Analysis of DtxR and HrrA Regulons Reveals Novel Targets and a High Level of Interconnectivity Between Iron and Heme Regulatory Networks in Corynebacterium glutamicum

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Iron is essential for life, yet excessive levels can quickly lead to cellular damage via oxidative stress, underscoring the need for global regulators of iron and heme homeostasis. In this study, we present a genome‐wide analysis of the binding patterns of DtxR and HrrA in Corynebacterium glutamicum.

Therapeutic Role of Probiotics for the Treatment of Dyspepsia: A Review of the Literature

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Recent studies suggest that microbiota imbalance plays a significant role in the development of functional dyspepsia (FD). Specifically, patients with FD have shown increased levels of Streptococcus and decreased levels of Prevotella, Veillonella, and Actinomyces.
