Full‐Length 16S and 18S rRNA Long‐Read Sequencing Reveals Gut Microbiome Diversity in the European Brown Hare (Lepus europaeus)

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Full‐length 16S and 18S rRNA Oxford Nanopore sequencing of large intestine contents from 30 healthy European brown hares revealed broad gut microbiome diversity. An 80% identity threshold detected substantially greater taxonomic richness than 95%, emphasizing the value of long‐read sequencing in wildlife microbiome research. ABSTRACT The European brown

The Dairy Ruminant Gut Microbiome: Profile, Responsiveness to Seasonality and Impact on Milk Quality

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 5, May 2026.
The dairy ruminant gut microbiome that is shaped by host and diet is affected by seasonality and rearing. These factors can impact dairy productivity and milk quality potentially through the gut microbiota. ABSTRACT The gut microbiome (GM) and particularly the rumen microbiome (RM) affect the ruminant health and they are associated with milk quality ...

The Prebiotic and Techno‐Functional Potential of Microbial Exopolysaccharides for Human Health and Food Systems

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPS) represent a diverse class of biopolymers holding considerable promise as functional food ingredients. This review analyzes the dual function of microbial EPS as a candidate for prebiotic agents and techno‐functional additives.

A Scaffoldomics Platform for Modular In Vivo Enzyme Colocalisation and Its Application to Naringenin Biosynthesis

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
A hierarchical assembly system was established in which the coding sequences for four docking enzymes and a scaffold are co‐assembled onto a single plasmid, thereby establishing a ‘scaffoldomics’ platform for the optimisation of multi‐enzyme biosynthetic pathways.

The role of the gut microbiome in the regulation of high‐altitude adaptation

open access: yesiMeta, Volume 5, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study is the first to elucidate mechanisms of high‐altitude adaptation from the perspective of the rumen ecosystem by using indigenous yaks and Holstein cows that have lived at high altitude since birth as comparative models. Through a systematic comparison of their rumen ecology using multi‐omics approaches—including rumen metagenomics ...

Comparison of the mesophilic cellulosome-producing Clostridium cellulovorans genome with other cellulosome-related clostridial genomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Clostridium cellulovorans, an anaerobic and mesophilic bacterium, degrades native substrates in soft biomass such as corn fibre and rice straw efficiently by producing an extracellular enzyme complex called the cellulosome. Recently, we have reported the

Diversity and strain specificity of plant cell wall degrading enzymes revealed by the draft genome of Ruminococcus flavefaciens FD-1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:Ruminococcus flavefaciens is a predominant cellulolytic rumen bacterium, which forms a multi-enzyme cellulosome complex that could play an integral role in the ability of this bacterium to degrade plant cell wall polysaccharides.

The diversity of PET degrading enzymes: A systematic review of sequence, structure, and function

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 34, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is one of the most significant plastic pollutants. Unlike other plastic polymers, PET can be degraded by PET‐hydrolytic enzymes (PETases). Over the past two decades, numerous publications have reported the discovery, characterization, and engineering of PETases.

Bioactive polysaccharides and their potential health benefits in reducing the risks of metabolic syndrome: A review

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 288-314, September 2025.
Abstract Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a complex noncommunicable condition characterized by central obesity, insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and hyperglycemia. Epidemiological evidence shows that MetS affects a third of the global population; however, due to its complex pathogenesis and limited drug therapy options, the increasing ...
