Large‐scale bidirectional arrayed genetic screens identify OXR1 and EMC4 as modifiers of αSynuclein aggregation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.

Novel Insights Into the Struggle Against Biofilm: The PsyOmp38 Protein From the Antarctic Marine Bacterium Psychrobacter sp. TAE2020

Microbial Biotechnology
Antibiofilm molecules can enhance the effectiveness of antibiotics and prevent biofilm formation. Antarctic marine bacteria have been found to secrete antibiofilm molecules, likely as part of a strategy for competitive survival.

In Vivo Evolution of Butane Oxidation by Terminal Alkane Hydroxylases AlkB and CYP153A6 [PDF]

, 2009
Enzymes of the AlkB and CYP153 families catalyze the first step in the catabolism of medium-chain-length alkanes, selective oxidation of the alkane to the 1-alkanol, and enable their host organisms to utilize alkanes as carbon sources.

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

Bacterial populations in different parts of domestic drinking water systems are distinct and adapted to the given ambient temperatures

Frontiers in Water, 2023
Drinking water enters buildings with a given microbiological community composition. Within premise plumbing systems, the drinking water is subject to very different conditions and temperatures. Whereas part of the water stays cold, another part is heated

Molecular Cloning and Chaperone Activity of DnaK from Cold-adapted Bacteria, KOPRI22215 [PDF]

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, 2011
E-mail: khlee@sejong.ac.krReceived April 6, 2011, Accepted April 21, 2011Psychrophilic bacteria have acquired cold-resistance in order to protect themselves against freezingtemperatures, which would otherwise be lethal. DnaK/DnaJ/GrpE systems are molecular chaperones whichfacilitate proper folding of newly synthesized proteins.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Complete genome sequence data of an Antarctic bacterium Arthrobacter sp. EM1 from the freshwater lake of the King George Island

Data in Brief
Arthrobacter sp. EM1 is a cold-adapted bacterium isolated from the Antarctic region, which was known to exhibit mannan-degrading activity. Accordingly, this strain not only promises a cell factory for mannan-degrading enzymes, widely used in industry but
