The supragenic organization of glycoside hydrolase encoding genes reveals distinct strategies for carbohydrate utilization in bacteria

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Glycoside hydrolases (GHs) are carbohydrate-active enzymes essential for many environmental (e.g., carbon cycling) and biotechnological (e.g., biofuels) processes.

Diverse reductive dehalogenases are associated with Clostridiales-enriched microcosms dechlorinating 1,2-dichloroethane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The achievement of successful biostimulation of active microbiomes for the cleanup of a polluted site is strictly dependent on the knowledge of the key microorganisms equipped with the relevant catabolic genes responsible for the degradation process.

Widespread transfer of mobile antibiotic resistance genes within individual gut microbiomes revealed through bacterial Hi-C

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The gut microbiome harbors a ‘silent reservoir’ of antibiotic resistance (AR) genes that is thought to contribute to the emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogens through horizontal gene transfer (HGT). To counteract the spread of AR, it is paramount to

Patterns of Bacterial Gene Movement [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2004
Lateral gene transfer has emerged as an important force in bacterial evolution. A substantial number of genes can be inserted into or deleted from genomes through the process of lateral transfer. In this study, we looked for atypical occurrence of genes among related organisms to detect laterally transferred genes.

Canine uterine bacterial infection induces upregulation of proteolysis-related genes and downregulation of homeobox and zinc finger factors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND: Bacterial infection with the severe complication of sepsis is a frequent and serious condition, being a major cause of death worldwide. To cope with the plethora of occurring bacterial infections there is therefore an urgent need to identify ...

Non-antibiotic pharmaceuticals enhance the transmission of exogenous antibiotic resistance genes through bacterial transformation

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2020
Antibiotic resistance is a serious global threat for public health. Considering the high abundance of cell-free DNA encoding antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in both clinical and environmental settings, natural transformation is an important horizontal

VBCG: 20 validated bacterial core genes for phylogenomic analysis with high fidelity and resolution

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2023
Background Phylogenomic analysis has become an inseparable part of studies of bacterial diversity and evolution, and many different bacterial core genes have been collated and used for phylogenomic tree reconstruction.

The emergence and fate of horizontally acquired genes in Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Bacterial species, and even strains within species, can vary greatly in their gene contents and metabolic capabilities. We examine the evolution of this diversity by assessing the distribution and ancestry of each gene in 13 sequenced isolates of ...
