Enterocinogeny and Lysogeny in Enterococci

Journal of Applied Bacteriology, 1970
Summary. The enterocinogeny and lysogeny of enterococci was studied with a double layer agar method and 21 indicator strains of enterococci. Of 77 strains examined, 76 produced enterocine, and of 19 strains examined, 5 were sensitive to their own enterocine.

A Fusarium sacchari Glycoside Hydrolase 12 Protein FsEG1 Is a Major Virulence Factor During Sugarcane Infection and Confers Resistance to Pokkah Boeng Disease via the HIGS Strategy

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pokkah Boeng disease (PBD), caused by Fusarium sacchari, has severely impacted the yield and quality of sugarcane, resulting in significant economic losses. However, the molecular interaction mechanisms between F. sacchari and sugarcane remain poorly understood.

Insights into the Functions of a Prophage Recombination Directionality Factor

Viruses, 2012
Recombination directionality factors (RDFs), or excisionases, are essential players of prophage excisive recombination. Despite the essentially catalytic role of the integrase in both integrative and excisive recombination, RDFs are required to direct ...

From Lake Victoria to the Tap: Antibiotic Resistance and Pathogenic Contamination of Kisumu City Water Supply and Wastewater Network

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Waterborne diseases and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) pose mounting public health threats across sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly in rapidly urbanising regions dependent on untreated or poorly treated surface waters. This study applied shotgun metagenomic sequencing to characterise microbial communities, virulence factors and antibiotic ...

Viable but Nonculturable State, a Survival Strategy for Salmonella in Aquatic Environments

Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
Transition of Salmonella from a culturable state to a viable but nonculturable state under various environmental stresses and current methods for detecting viable Salmonella in environmental samples. ABSTRACT In the relentless battle for survival, Salmonella has evolved mechanisms to withstand harsh conditions such as extreme temperatures, fluctuating ...

Role of RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL signalling pathway in sepsis‐associated acute kidney injury

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sepsis‐associated acute kidney injury (SA‐AKI) is a common clinical syndrome in critically ill patients, and its high mortality rate is closely related to complex pathological mechanisms. Existing studies have shown that the pathophysiological process of SA‐AKI involves complex multi‐mechanism interactions, including an uncontrolled systemic ...

Sequence‐Based and Functional Analysis for the Discovery of N‐Glycan Degrading Glycosidases From the Microbial Metagenome of the Infant Gut

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
This research offers valuable understanding of how N‐glycans are broken down by the gut microbiota of infants, focusing on glycoside hydrolase families GH2, GH20, and GH18. It reveals that the gut microbiota of breastfed infants has a diverse array of genes coding for these enzymes.

A Short Introduction to Bacteriophages

Trends in Peptide and Protein Sciences, 2016
First discovered in the 19th century, bacteriophages (phages) are bacterial viruses and the most widespread entities on earth. Phages have multiple important roles in maintaining the bacterial population, carbon cycling, bacterial pathogenicity, and ...
