Interaction between Aeschynomene and photosynthetic Bradyrhizobium: An enigmatic Nod-independent symbiotic process [PDF]

, 2008
Nodule formation in legume plants was assumed to be exclusively initiated by the binding of bacterial host-specific lipochitooligosaccharidic Nod factors to kinase-like receptors of the plant.

Mutation in the pssZ Gene Negatively Impacts Exopolysaccharide Synthesis, Surface Properties, and Symbiosis of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii with Clover [PDF]

, 2018
Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii is a soil bacterium capable of establishing a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with clover plants (Trifolium spp.). This bacterium secretes large amounts of acidic exopolysaccharide (EPS), which plays an essential role in ...

Knockout of the mitoribosome rescue factors Ict1 or Mtrfr is viable in zebrafish but not mice: compensatory mechanisms underlying each factor's loss

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Mitochondria contain two mitoribosome rescue factors, ICT1 and MTRFR (C12orf65). ICT1 also functions as a mitoribosomal protein in mice and humans, and its loss is lethal. Although Mtrfr knockout mice could not be generated, knockout zebrafish lines for ict1 and mtrfr were established.

Short peptide perturbs spermatogenesis via immune microenvironment dysregulation and mitochondrial imbalance

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In the blood–testis barrier, occludin is crucial for tight junctions. This study demonstrates that occludin‐targeting short peptides disrupt junction integrity, inducing immune cell infiltration, tumor necrosis factor‐α/interleukin‐6 secretion and mitochondrial dysfunction, ultimately triggering apoptosis.

A PANoptosis‐Based Signature for Survival and Immune Predication in Glioblastoma Multiforme

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective PANoptosis is a concept of total cell death characterized by pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis. We aimed to explore the clinical significance of PANoptosis‐related genes (PARGs) in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Methods Expression profiles of GBM were downloaded from the XENA database as a training dataset to construct a ...

Gene therapy using bacterial vectors

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2017
Bacteria can be used for gene therapy via two strategies - either by transfection of eukaryotic host cells using bacteria (bactofection) or by alternative gene therapy that does not alter the host genome, but uses the prokaryotic expression system, which can be controlled or stopped from outside.

The diversity of a distributed genome in bacterial populations

, 2010
The distributed genome hypothesis states that the set of genes in a population of bacteria is distributed over all individuals that belong to the specific taxon. It implies that certain genes can be gained and lost from generation to generation.
