High Salt Electrolyte Solutions Challenge the Electrochemical CO2 Reduction Reaction to Formate at Indium and Tin Cathodes

open access: yesChemElectroChem, Volume 10, Issue 23, December 1, 2023., 2023
Electrochemical feeding of salt‐loving microorganisms: Halophilic microorganisms are promising for bioproduction from formate. Electrochemical CO2 reduction to formate necessitates high reaction kinetics, selectivity, and overall efficiency in saline conditions.

Adaptive genetic traits in pelagic freshwater microbes

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 3, Page 606-641, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Pelagic microbes have adopted distinct strategies to inhabit the pelagial of lakes and oceans and can be broadly categorized in two groups: free‐living, specialized oligotrophs and patch‐associated generalists or copiotrophs. In this review, we aim to identify genomic traits that enable pelagic freshwater microbes to thrive in their habitat ...

Quantification of dissolved metabolites in environmental samples through cation‐exchange solid‐phase extraction paired with liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 20, Issue 11, Page 683-700, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Small, biologically produced, organic molecules called metabolites play key roles in microbial systems where they directly mediate exchanges of nutrients, energy, and information. However, the study of dissolved polar metabolites in seawater and other environmental matrices has been hampered by analytical challenges including high inorganic ...

Protective effect of the extremolytes ectoine and hydroxyectoine in a porcine organ culture. [PDF]

open access: yesGraefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol, 2020
Abstract Purpose Hypoxic damage to the retina is a relevant component of neurodegenerative pathologies such as glaucoma or retinal ischemia. In porcine retina organ cultures, hypoxic damage can be induced by applying cobalt chloride (CoCl2).

Guilty by association: Importers, exporters and MscS‐type mechanosensitive channels encoded in biosynthetic gene clusters for the stress‐protectant ectoine

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 5306-5331, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Ectoine and its derivative hydroxyectoine are widely synthesized or imported by bacteria to fend off the detrimental effects of high osmolarity on cellular hydration and growth. Genes that are connected to a particular physiological process are often found in the same genomic context.

Whole‐genome sequencing and genome‐scale metabolic modeling of Chromohalobacter canadensis 85B to explore its salt tolerance and biotechnological use

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 11, Issue 5, October 2022., 2022
The whole genome of Chromohalobacter canadensis 85B was sequenced and its genome‐scale metabolic model was reconstructed and validated, enabling a better understanding of its metabolism. We show that C. canadensis is a metabolically versatile organism with many features for stress and osmotic adaptation, including pathways for compatible solute and ...

High survival and stability rates of Escherichia coli dried in hydroxyectoine [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2004
The tetrahydropyramidine hydroxyectoine acts as an osmolyte in a range of bacterial species, but its use as a desiccation protectant is less well explored. Recently, it was demonstrated that hydroxyectoine provides effective stabilisation of the Gram-negative species Pseudomonas putida, which is only relatively poorly preserved by the better ...

Role of trehalose in salinity and temperature tolerance in the model halophilic bacterium Chromohalobacter salexigens. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The disaccharide trehalose is considered as a universal stress molecule, protecting cells and biomolecules from injuries imposed by high osmolarity, heat, oxidation, desiccation and freezing.

Fructose metabolism in Chromohalobacter salexigens: interplay between the Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas and Entner–Doudoroff pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background The halophilic bacterium Chromohalobacter salexigens metabolizes glucose exclusively through the Entner–Doudoroff (ED) pathway, an adaptation which results in inefficient growth, with significant carbon overflow, especially at low salinity ...
