Insights into ecological roles of uncultivated bacteria in Katase hot spring sediment from long-read metagenomics

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Diverse yet-uncultivated bacteria and archaea, i.e., microbial dark matter, are present in terrestrial hot spring environments. Numerous metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of these uncultivated prokaryotes by short-read metagenomics have been reported ...

Screening of Azaphilone Derivatives From -Fermented Rice (Red Yeast Rice) and Their Evaluation as Nonsteroidal Androgen Receptor Antagonists

Natural Product Communications, 2019
Monascus pilosus BCRC 38093 is a mutant strain of M. pilosus BCRC 38072. The 95% ethanol extract of red yeast rice fermented by M. pilosus BCRC 38093 showed 4 major signals on high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) examination.

Bacteria can maintain rRNA operons solely on plasmids for hundreds of millions of years

Nature Communications, 2023
It is generally assumed that all bacteria must have at least one rRNA operon (rrn operon) on the chromosome, but some strains of the genera Aureimonas and Oecophyllibacter carry their sole rrn operon on a plasmid.

Fecal Microbiota Perspective for Evaluation of Prebiotic Potential of Bamboo Hemicellulose Hydrolysate in Mice: A Preliminary Study

Microorganisms, 2021
Bamboo hemicellulose hydrolysate (BHH) may possess antihypercholesterolemic activity; however, this activity requires further comprehensive study to assess the prebiotic mechanisms of BHH in vivo. Here, we used high-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing to
