Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Shiga Toxin Genes Detected in Fecal Samples of Illinois Finisher Pigs

Bacteria
(1) Background: Pigs can be another host of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC), suggesting that pork products could be a potential risk to public health. A USDA National Animal Health Monitoring System (NAHMS) study revealed that Shiga toxin genes were

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

The physiological activity of attached bacteria [PDF]

Assimilation and respiration by a marine Pseudomonas sp. was evaluated to determine whether the activity of bacteria attached to solid surfaces (substrata) differed from that of free-living bacteria.

Mechanisms Underpinning the Biocontrol Potential of Halophilic and Halotolerant Bacillus Species Against Fusarium and Other Fungal Phytopathogens: An Eco-Friendly Alternative for Sustainable Agriculture

Bacteria
Modern agriculture is increasingly challenged by fungal diseases, with phytopathogens such as Fusarium species causing substantial yield and quality losses in major crops globally.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Survival of Bacterial Pathogens During Storage of Animal Waste and Wastewater Treatment Sludge and Their Subsequent Application to Clay–Loam Soil

Bacteria
Globally, large quantities of animal waste and human sewage sludge are generated annually. Their application as soil amendments can enhance soil quality and support a circular economy.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...
