Analysis of molecular interactions between yoghurt bacteria by an integrated genomics approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are a group of Gram-positive bacteria that ferment sugars such as lactose to produce mainly lactic acid. LAB are a group of industrially important microorganisms that are applied for the production of many fermented foods ...

Pathogen-specific and non-leaching antibacterial coatings for textiles

open access: yesMaterials & Design
Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) are responsible for over 100,000 deaths annually in the US alone. Health care materials for wound dressings, hernia meshes, as well as hygiene products, are especially important to avoid HAIs. The methicillin-resistant

Growth Promotion of Phaseolus vulgaris and Arabidopsis thaliana Seedlings by Streptomycetes Volatile Compounds

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Streptomyces are recognized as antipathogenic agents and plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria. The objective of this study was to evaluate the capacities of four antifungal Streptomyces strains to: produce the substances that are involved in plant growth;

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

Beneficial effects of acetic acid bacteria and their food products

open access: yes, 2017
Acetic acid bacteria are widely spread in nature and in a variety of food products. The main characteristic of acetic acid bacteria is the oxidation of ethanol, sugars and sugar alcohols to different kinds of organic acids, in general and in particular ...

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

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Nitrogen-fixing methane-utilizing bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1976
Methane occurs abundantly in nature. In the presence of oxygen this gas may be metabolized by bacteria that are able to use it as carbon and energy source.

Evaluation of Microbial Transplantation from High-Productivity Soil to Improve Soybean Performance in Less Productive Farmland

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Microbial transplantation represents a sustainable strategy to address productivity gaps in agricultural soils by transferring microbiomes that enhance nutrient cycling, pathogen suppression, and stress tolerance.
