This research clarifies the synergistic adaptive interactions between seasonal foraging strategies and gut microbiome composition in Chinese chiropterans. Microbial diversity and community structure exhibit seasonal fluctuations, with functional metabolic pathways aligning to host reproductive cycles and hibernation physiology, thereby substantiating ...

Identification and characterization of a novel porin family highlights a major difference in the outer membrane of chlamydial symbionts and pathogens. [PDF]
The Chlamydiae constitute an evolutionary well separated group of intracellular bacteria comprising important pathogens of humans as well as symbionts of protozoa.

Diversity of FAAL enzymes and prediction of their substrate specificity using FAALPred
Abstract FAALs (fatty acyl‐AMP ligases) recruit and incorporate fatty acids during the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. Their diversity, distribution, and substrate specificity remain poorly understood, which limits functional predictions from sequence data.

Bacteria from the Planctomycetes, Verrucomicrobia and Chlamydiae (PVC) superphylum are exceptions to the otherwise dominant mode of division by binary fission, which is based on the interaction between the FtsZ protein and the peptidoglycan (PG ...

Cultivation of hitherto-uncultured bacteria belonging to the Verrucomicrobia subdivision 1 from the potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) rhizosphere [PDF]
The role of dominant bacterial groups in the plant rhizosphere, e.g., those belonging to the phyla Acidobacteria and Verrucomicrobia, has, so far, not been elucidated, and this is mainly due to the lack of culturable representatives.

Genome sequence of Chthoniobacter flavus Ellin428, an aerobic heterotrophic soil bacterium [PDF]
Chthoniobacter flavus Ellin428 is the first isolate from the class Spartobacteria of the bacterial phylum Verrucomicrobia. C. flavus Ellin428 can metabolize many of the saccharide components of plant biomass but is incapable of growth on amino acids or ...

Chlamydial Lytic Exit from Host Cells Is Plasmid Regulated
Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular bacterium that is a globally important human pathogen. The chlamydial plasmid is an attenuating virulence factor, but the molecular basis for attenuation is not understood.
