Bacterial Diversity of the Corpses

European Journal of Biology
The study presents the importance of forensic bacteriology, its use in forensic cases, the methods for bacteriological sampling from corpses, the types and species of bacteria isolated from human and pig corpses, which are most commonly used in forensic ...

Bacterial Actins and Their Diversity [PDF]

Biochemistry, 2013
For many years, bacteria were considered rather simple organisms, but the dogmatic notion that subcellular organization is a eukaryotic trait has been overthrown for more than a decade. The discovery of homologues of the eukaryotic cytoskeletal proteins actin, tubulin, and intermediate filaments in bacteria has been instrumental in changing this view ...

BacDive—the Bacterial Diversity Metadatabase [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Research, 2013
BacDive-the Bacterial Diversity Metadatabase (http://bacdive.dsmz.de) merges detailed strain-linked information on the different aspects of bacterial and archaeal biodiversity. Currently (release 9/2013), BacDive contains entries for 23 458 strains and provides information on their taxonomy, morphology, physiology, sampling and concomitant ...

Diversity of bacterial chemosensory systems

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2021
Chemosensory system is the most complex, specialized mode of signal transduction in bacteria and archaea. It is composed of several core and auxiliary protein components that are highly organized in order to deliver a fast response to changing environmental conditions.

Antimicrobial Resistance in Wildlife in Guadeloupe (French West Indies): Distribution of a Single blaCTX–M–1/IncI1/ST3 Plasmid Among Humans and Wild Animals

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Limited data are available on the contribution of wildlife to the spread of antibacterial resistance. We determined the prevalence of resistance to antibiotics in Escherichia coli isolates collected from wild animals in 2013 and 2014 and the genetic ...

Diverse Bacterial Microcompartment Organelles [PDF]

Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2014
SUMMARY Bacterial microcompartments (MCPs) are sophisticated protein-based organelles used to optimize metabolic pathways. They consist of metabolic enzymes encapsulated within a protein shell, which creates an ideal environment for catalysis and facilitates the channeling of toxic/volatile intermediates to downstream enzymes.

Global patterns in bacterial diversity [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
Microbes are difficult to culture. Consequently, the primary source of information about a fundamental evolutionary topic, life's diversity, is the environmental distribution of gene sequences. We report the most comprehensive analysis of the environmental distribution of bacteria to date, based on 21,752 16S rRNA sequences compiled from 111 studies of

Land-use intensity indirectly affects soil multifunctionality via a cascade effect of plant diversity on soil bacterial diversity

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2020
Land-use intensification impairs multiple soil ecosystem functions and services (hereafter ‘soil multifunctionality’; SMF) crucial to human wellbeing by influencing plant diversity and soil microbial communities. However, available information is limited

A catalog of the diversity and ubiquity of bacterial microcompartments [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2021
Abstract Bacterial microcompartments (BMCs) are organelles that segregate segments of metabolic pathways which are incompatible with surrounding metabolism. BMCs consist of a selectively permeable shell, composed of three types of structurally conserved proteins, together with sequestered enzymes that vary among functionally distinct ...

Maize Leaf Epiphytic Bacteria Diversity Patterns Are Genetically Correlated with Resistance to Fungal Pathogen Infection

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2010
Plant leaves host a specific set of microbial epiphytes. Plant genetic and solar UV-B radiation effects on the diversity of the phyllosphere were examined by measuring epiphytic bacterial ribosomal DNA diversity in a maize recombinant inbred (RI) mapping
