Network Component Analysis Can Identify Potential Axenisation Strategies Circumventing Antibiotic‐Use for Phototrophic Eukaryotic Microalgae

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Network component analysis of published axenisation methods reveals optimal, antibiotic‐free workflows for phototrophic eukaryotic microalgae. Distinct strategies are identified for diatoms, dinoflagellates, and green algae. Verification using microscopy, sequencing, and cell counting enhances reproducibility.

Disordered N‐termini enhance the thermostability of SGNH‐hydrolase family polyesterases

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Polyesters are widely used plastics that persist in the environment due to their resistance to degradation. Microbial polyesterases potentially offer recycling and remediation solutions. However, most polyesterases lack the thermostability and catalytic efficiency required for practical application.
