Microbial Electrosynthesis Reshapes Energy Metabolism and Physiology in Clostridium ljungdahlii

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
Microbial electrosynthesis drives Clostridium ljungdahlii into a distinct stress‐associated physiological state, different from gas fermentation. Comparative multi‐omics and electron microscopy reveal physiological constraints that help explain the poor performance of MES.

Cuproptosis, the novel type of oxidation-induced cell death in thoracic cancers: can it enhance the success of immunotherapy?

Cell Communication and Signaling
Copper is an important metal micronutrient, required for the balanced growth and normal physiological functions of human organism. Copper-related toxicity and dysbalanced metabolism were associated with the disruption of intracellular respiration and the

Elucidating the Functional and Taxonomic Diversity of Soil Microbial Communities From Three Commercial Soybean Farms in South Africa

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Prior to inoculation of soybeans, South African soils contain no Bradyhizobia that nodulate and fix nitrogen in soybeans. Soybean cultivation with prolonged inoculation resulted in the establishment and dominance of Bradyrhizobia in three soybean farms in South Africa as revealed by a microbial community study using shotgun metagenomics. ABSTRACT Prior

The Seasonal and Spatial Patterns of Planktonic Bacterial and Fungal Community Structure and the Response to Environmental Factors in the Danjiangkou Reservoir, China

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
This study investigated the spatial and temporal distribution patterns of bacterial and fungal communities in the Danjiangkou Reservoir during dry season and wet season, revealing the mechanism by which seasonal variations drive changes in microbial community composition and function through their influence on the physicochemical properties of the ...

Modulating ovarian cancer progression through FDX1-driven autophagy

npj Precision Oncology
Ferredoxin 1 (FDX1) emerges as a crucial regulator of autophagy and copper metabolism in ovarian cancer (OC), as revealed by this investigation. Predominantly localized to the cytoplasm and mitochondria, FDX1 coordinates autophagic activity by modulating

Genomic Survey of Carbon Monoxide Dehydrogenases Reveals Their Widespread Distribution in Marine Habitats

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Protein sequence surveys show that nickel‐ and molybdenum/copper‐containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (CODHs) are widespread in the ocean. Phylogenetic and genome context analyses reveal that marine CODHs are highly diverse in both evolutionary history and functional organisation.

The Elusive Fraction of Marine Plankton Diversity: Size, Abundance and Taxonomic Composition of 0.2 μm‐Filterable Prokaryotes Across Three Contrasting Coastal Environments

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 12, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The existence of prokaryotes escaping filtration through 0.2‐μm filters has been known for decades. Such ‘filterable’ prokaryotes (hereafter ‘FP’) might include true ultra‐small groups (i.e., ultramicrobacteria), but also cells that miniaturize temporally as a physiological strategy to persist under unfavourable conditions, representing a ...

NPF2 is involved in intracellular pH regulation and ion balance in the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 3885-3899, June 2026.
Summary Cellular ion and pH homeostasis are crucial factors affecting and regulating metabolic reactions, protein stability, signalling and transport mechanisms. To balance intracellular ion concentrations, organisms need to constantly sense and respond to both the extracellular environment and cell compartments' requests.

Distinct Defence Mechanisms of Allelopathic Rice Against Quinclorac‐Susceptible and ‐Resistant Barnyardgrass: Involvement of Specific Metabolites and Rhizosheath Microbiota

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3876-3896, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Allelopathic rice is increasingly recognised as a promising strategy for sustainable weed management. Resistance to the herbicide quinclorac is widespread in barnyardgrass, but it remains unclear whether allelopathic rice exerts the same defence against herbicide‐susceptible and ‐resistant barnyardgrass. We conducted integrated transcriptomic,

AKT1 Phosphorylates FDX1 to Promote Cuproptosis Resistance in Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

Advanced Science
Cuproptosis, a recently defined copper‐dependent cell death pathway, remains largely unexplored in tumor therapies, particularly in breast cancer. This study demonstrates that triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) bears a relatively elevated copper levels
