Ploidy in cyanobacteria [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2011
A recently developed real-time PCR method for the determination of genome copy numbers was optimized for the application to cyanobacteria. Three species were chosen to represent a fresh water species, a salt water species, and two strains of a widely used laboratory species.

Two Novel S‐methyltransferases Confer Dimethylsulfide Production in Actinomycetota

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies two novel S‐adenosine‐methionine‐dependent methyltransferases, MddM1 and MddM2, in actinomycetes from the Mariana Trench. These enzymes can convert toxic hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and methanethiol (MeSH) into dimethylsulfide (DMS), serving as a cellular detoxification and oxidative stress response.
