Environmental and Gut Bacteroidetes: The Food Connection [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011 Members of the diverse bacterial phylum Bacteroidetes have colonized virtually all types of habitats on Earth. They are among the major members of the microbiota of animals, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract, can act as pathogens and are ...

Genome-Based Taxonomic Classification of Bacteroidetes [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 The bacterial phylum Bacteroidetes, characterized by a distinct gliding motility, occurs in a broad variety of ecosystems, habitats, life styles, and physiologies. Accordingly, taxonomic classification of the phylum, based on a limited number of features,

The Bacteroidetes Q-Rule: Pyroglutamate in Signal Peptidase I Substrates [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Bacteroidetes feature prominently in the human microbiome, as major colonizers of the gut and clinically relevant pathogens elsewhere. Here, we reveal a new Bacteroidetes specific feature in the otherwise widely conserved Sec/SPI (Sec translocase/signal ...

Importance of Bacteroidetes in host–microbe interactions and ecosystem functioning [PDF]
Trends in Microbiology, 2023 Bacteroidetes are prevalent in soil ecosystems and are associated with various eukaryotic hosts, including plants, animals, and humans. The ubiquity and diversity of Bacteroidetes exemplify their impressive versatility in niche adaptation and genomic plasticity. Over the past decade, a wealth of knowledge has been obtained on the metabolic functions of

Investigating bacteroidetes gliding motility [PDF]
, 2022 Bacteroidetes gliding motility is a type of surface motility in which rod-shaped bacteria move up to 2 µm s in a corkscrewing motion. Flavobacterium johnsoniae is the primary model organism for the study of Bacteroidetes gliding. SprB is the main adhesin in this organism and moves in a helix along the cell surface.

An RNA-centric view on gut Bacteroidetes [PDF]
Biological Chemistry, 2020 Abstract Bacteria employ noncoding RNAs to maintain cellular physiology, adapt global gene expression to fluctuating environments, sense nutrients, coordinate their interaction with companion microbes and host cells, and protect themselves against bacteriophages.

New Iron Acquisition System in Bacteroidetes [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 2015 ABSTRACTCapnocytophaga canimorsus, a dog mouth commensal and a member of theBacteroidetesphylum, causes rare but often fatal septicemia in humans that have been in contact with a dog. Here, we show thatC. canimorsusstrains isolated from human infections grow readily in heat-inactivated human serum and that this property depends on a typical ...

Ecology of marine Bacteroidetes: a comparative genomics approach [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2013 Abstract Bacteroidetes are commonly assumed to be specialized in degrading high molecular weight (HMW) compounds and to have a preference for growth attached to particles, surfaces or algal cells. The first sequenced genomes of marine Bacteroidetes seemed to confirm this assumption. Many more genomes have been sequenced recently. Here, a

Ancestry and adaptive radiation of Bacteroidetes as assessed by comparative genomics [PDF]
Systematic and Applied Microbiology, 2020 To date, the phylum Bacteroidetes comprises more than 1,500 described species with diverse ecological roles. However, there is little understanding of archetypal Bacteroidetes traits at a genomic level. In this study, a representative set of 89 Bacteroidetes genomes was compiled, and pairwise reciprocal best-match gene comparisons and gene syntenies ...
