Marinobacter subterrani, a genetically tractable neutrophilic Fe(II)-oxidizing strain isolated from the Soudan Iron Mine

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
We report the isolation, characterization, and development of a robust genetic system for a halophilic, Fe(II)-oxidizing bacterium isolated from a vertical borehole originating 714 m below the surface located in the Soudan Iron Mine in northern Minnesota,

Microbial Functional Responses in Marine Biofilms Exposed to Deepwater Horizon Spill Contaminants

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Marine biofilms are essential biological components that transform built structures into artificial reefs. Anthropogenic contaminants released into the marine environment, such as crude oil and chemical dispersant from an oil spill, may disrupt the ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Algicidal Bacteria in Controlling Harmful Algal Blooms: Advances in Bacteria‐Algae Interactions

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms of algicidal bacteria, highlighting critical behaviours like chemotaxis, quorum sensing and extracellular vesicle release. It details how these actions disrupt algal cellular integrity, photosynthesis and calcium homeostasis, providing a theoretical foundation for controlling harmful algal blooms ...

eMap 2.0: A Web‐Based Platform for Identifying electron Transfer Pathways in Proteins and Protein Families

open access: yesWIREs Computational Molecular Science, Volume 16, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
In this review, we present eMap 2.0, a web‐based platform for analyzing electron transfer pathways in proteins. We highlight representative applications of eMap, including its use in characterizing electron transfer within individual proteins and in revealing shared electron transfer pathways across protein families.

Antibodies against Marinobacter algicola and Salmonella typhimurium flagellins do not cross-neutralize TLR5 activation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Flagellins evoke strong innate and adaptive immune responses. These proteins may play a key role as radioprotectors, exert antitumoral activity in certain types of tumor and reduce graft-versus-host disease in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell ...

Discovering PETases: An Interlink Between Engineering Enzymes and Microbiomes

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2026.
In this review‐type article, we discuss some recent trends in the identification of polyethylene terephthalate‐degrading enzymes (PETases) from nature. We highlight that the discovery of novel PETases can be improved by an interlink between reshaping microbiomes and engineering proteins.

Study of Microbial Communities in the Soda Lake of Isabel Island: Identification of Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) Degrading Enzymes

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
The crater lake on Isabel Island is a moderately saline soda lake that hosts microorganisms with potential biotechnological applications. We characterised the microbial communities using seven metagenomes and two genomes to identify polyhydroxybutyrate depolymerases.

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.

Phenotypic responses to interspecies competition and commensalism in a naturally-derived microbial co-culture

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
The fundamental question of whether different microbial species will co-exist or compete in a given environment depends on context, composition and environmental constraints.

Pan‐Genomic and Phenotypic Characterisation of Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degradation by Pseudomonas Species

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Pseudomonas is one of the most significant bacterial genus involved in the petroleum hydrocarbon bioremediation. Innovatively, through pan‐genomic analysis at the genus level, we found that different Pseudomonas strains have excellent complementarity at the nodes of the degradation pathway of petroleum hydrocarbons.
