Structure Prediction and Genome Mining‐Aided Discovery of the Bacterial C‐Terminal Tryptophan Prenyltransferase PalQ

Advanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, February 9, 2024.
Tryptophan prenyltransferase PalQ is a novel member of the isoprene synthase domain superfamily. The C3 prenylation of the tryptophan side chain, mediated by PalQ, alters the conformational dynamics of the peptide backbone. Abstract Post‐translational prenylations, found in eukaryotic primary metabolites and bacterial secondary metabolites, play ...

Lactic acid bacteria in Swedish honey bees during outbreaks of American foulbrood

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2024.
To investigate if the bacterial disease American foulbrood (AFB) affects lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in honeybees, adult bees were collected from colonies with and without AFB during outbreaks in Sweden. We found differences in the abundance of the individual LAB between the different outbreaks.

Novel eDNA approaches to monitor Western honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) microbial and arthropod communities

Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 1, January–February 2024.
This paper presents the development of eDNA metabarcoding for early detection and monitoring of honey bee pests and pathogens. We sampled 13 sources for eDNA within and outside hives from our test apiary to determine where the most informative eDNA could be obtained.

The oriental hornet (Vespa orientalis) as a potential vector of honey bee's pathogens and a threat for public health in North‐East Italy

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 1, January 2024.
Over the past years, the oriental hornet has colonized several European countries and among many pests of bee colonies, V. orientalis was recorded to be one of the most destructive. This study shows that the oriental hornet is capable of causing serious damage to beekeeping by killing bees, putting under stress the bee colonies and by potentially ...
