Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Landscape‐level wolf space use is correlated with prey abundance, ease of mobility, and the distribution of prey habitat

open access: yesEcosphere, 2017
Predator space use influences ecosystem dynamics, and a fundamental goal assumed for a foraging predator is to maximize encounter rate with prey. This can be achieved by disproportionately utilizing areas of high prey density or, where prey are mobile ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Microplastics influence the functional responses of a tropical estuarine calanoid Pseudodiaptomus annandalei

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Being chemically inert and morphologically similar (<5 mm in size) to the natural prey of copepods, microplastics (MPs) affect them through entanglement, ingestion, and interference with their natural prey selection.

Individual responses to novel predation risk and the emergence of a landscape of fear

open access: yesEcosphere, 2020
Elucidating changes in prey behavior in response to a novel predator is key to understanding how individuals acclimate to shifting predation regimes.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Functional response of Serangium montazerii (Col.: Coccinellidae) to different densities of Dialeurodes citri (Hem.: Aleyrodidae): an open-patch approach [PDF]

open access: yesنامه انجمن حشره‌شناسی ایران, 2013
The functional response of a predator is the base of prey-predator dynamics. Functional response of Serangium montazerii Fürsch at different egg densities (50, 100, 150, 200 and 250) of Dialeurodes citri (Ashmead) was studied in an open-patch experiment,
