Living Hydrogels: Harnessing Microorganism–Material Synergy for Next‐Generation Therapeutics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
 . ABSTRACT Microorganism‐based therapies, particularly those utilizing probiotics, have emerged as a powerful biomedical strategy owing to their inherent living functionalities. These living systems can dynamically interact with host environments and self‐regulate their activity, offering superior adaptability, prolonged functionality, and ...

Chromosomal transformation in the cyanobacterium Agmenellum quadruplicatum [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1990
Chromosomal transformation of Agmenellum quadruplicatum PR-6 (= Synechococcus sp. strain 7002) was characterized for phenotypic expression, for exposure time to DNA, and for dependence on DNA concentration with regard to Rifr donor DNA. Exponentially growing cells of PR-6 were competent for chromosomal transformation.

A Crack‐Based One‐Dimensional Microspheres Array Enables Thermal–Mechanical Decoupled Dual‐Functional Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by Nostoc, a crack‐based one‐dimensional microspheres array (COMA) sensor is developed, which stabilizes crack geometry under isotropic expansion, enabling a predictable, monotonic thermal response from which true strain can be accurately extracted. The COMA sensor exhibits high sensitivity at ultralow deformation (gauge factor up to 89) and a

Diel infection of cyanobacteria by cyanophages

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2016
Cyanobacteria exhibit biological rhythms as an adaptation to the daily light-dark (diel) cycle. Light is also crucial for bacteriophages (cyanophages) that infect cyanobacteria.

Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...

NsrR1, a Nitrogen stress-repressed sRNA, contributes to the regulation of nblA in Nostoc sp. PCC 7120 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) are currently considered as major post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression in bacteria. The interplay between sRNAs and transcription factors leads to complex regulatory networks in which both transcription factors
