Dominant and novel clades of Candidatus Accumulibacter phosphatis in 18 globally distributed full-scale wastewater treatment plants. [PDF]
Here we employed quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) assays for polyphosphate kinase 1 (ppk1) and 16S rRNA genes to assess relative abundances of dominant clades of Candidatus Accumulibacter phosphatis (referred to Accumulibacter) in 18 globally ...

ATP‐Independent and Cell‐Free Biosynthesis of β‐Hydroxy Acids Using Vinyl Esters as Smart Substrates
A 4‐enzyme cell‐free system transforms vinyl esters into β‐hydroxy acids in the absence of ATP and ancillary electron donors through concurrent abiotic thiolysis, non‐decarboxylating Claisen condensation, ketone reduction and hydrolysis steps. The same substrate provides the energy to activate the acyl group and the redox power to reduce the condensed ...

Natural microbial communities consist of closely related taxa that may exhibit phenotypic differences and inhabit distinct niches. However, connecting genetic diversity to ecological properties remains a challenge in microbial ecology due to the lack of ...

Metaproteomic Profiling of the Secretome of a Granule-forming Ca. Accumulibacter Enrichment. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Extracellular proteins are supposed to play crucial roles in the formation and structure of biofilms and aggregates. However, often little is known about these proteins, in particular for microbial communities. Here, we use two advanced metaproteomic approaches to study the extracellular proteome in a granular Candidatus Accumulibacter ...

AtcJ is a short J‐domain protein essential for cold growth in S. oneidensis, conserved in environmental β‐ and γ‐proteobacteria, and encoded in an operon along with its protein partners AtcA, AtcB, and AtcC. The AtcJ superfamily contains a conserved PX7W motif whose Trp ensures the high affinity of the AtcJ–AtcC interaction, which is crucial for growth

Metaproteomics provides functional insight into activated sludge wastewater treatment. [PDF]
Through identification of highly expressed proteins from a mixed culture activated sludge system this study provides functional evidence of microbial transformations important for enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR).A laboratory-scale ...

Abstract BACKGROUND The performance of microalgal and bacterial systems devoted to wastewater treatment might be limited by the poor settling of microalgal biomass and the inhibition of nitrifying bacteria under high irradiance conditions. This work implemented a photo‐sequencing batch bioreactor (PSBR) treating medium‐ and low‐strength wastewaters ...

Unmasking photogranulation in decreasing glacial albedo and net autotrophic wastewater treatment
Summary In both natural and built environments, microbes on occasions manifest in spherical aggregates instead of substratum‐affixed biofilms. These microbial aggregates are conventionally referred to as granules. Cryoconites are mineral rich granules that appear on glacier surfaces and are linked with expanding surface darkening, thus decreasing ...

Abstract One main approach to computational analysis of microbiome sequences is to first align against a reference database of annotated protein sequences (NCBI‐nr) and then perform taxonomic and functional binning of the sequences based on the resulting alignments.
