Metagenomic analysis of dental calculus in ancient Egyptian baboons [PDF]

, 2019
Dental calculus, or mineralized plaque, represents a record of ancient biomolecules and food residues. Recently, ancient metagenomics made it possible to unlock the wealth of microbial and dietary information of dental calculus to reconstruct oral ...

Principles for Rigorous Design and Application of Synthetic Microbial Communities

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SynComs are artificially designed to enable inter‐species metabolic interactions, metabolic division of labor, and ecological interactions that can elicit phenotypes like colonization stability and environmental adaptation. This systematic review explores the processes used to construct SynComs, the assessment of the mechanisms of metabolic interaction

Mechanism‐Driven Screening of Membrane‐Targeting and Pore‐Forming Antimicrobial Peptides

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
To combat antibiotic resistance, this study employs mechanism‐driven screening with machine learning to identify pore‐forming antimicrobial peptides from amphibian and human metaproteomes. Seven peptides are validated, showing minimal toxicity and membrane disruption.

Pan-viral serology implicates enteroviruses in acute flaccid myelitis. [PDF]

, 2019
Since 2012, the United States of America has experienced a biennial spike in pediatric acute flaccid myelitis (AFM)1-6. Epidemiologic evidence suggests non-polio enteroviruses (EVs) are a potential etiology, yet EV RNA is rarely detected in cerebrospinal

The Gut Commensal Butyricimonas Virosa Modulates Gut Microbiota‐Dependent Thiamine Metabolism and Attenuates Mouse Steatotic Liver Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that dietary stachyose enriches Butyricimonas virosa, effectively attenuating metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Mechanistically, B. virosa enhances gut thiamine monophosphate synthesis, which elevates hepatic thiamine pyrophosphate levels.

Gut Bacterium Lysinibacillus Sphaericus Exacerbates Aspirin‐induced Intestinal Injury by Production of Carboxylesterase EstB

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic overview illustrating the detrimental role of gut microbiota in aspirin‐induced intestinal injury. L. sphaericus and its secreted carboxylesterase EstB are identified as key drivers that catalyze aspirin hydrolysis into salicylic acid, thereby exacerbating intestinal injury. Inhibition of EstB by the dietary compound flavanomarein effectively

Time‐Efficient and Informatic‐Skill‐Light Gap‐Filling for Telomere‐to‐Telomere Genome Assembly

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The paper introduces a novel auxiliary software toolbox GapSuite, consisting of two tools Gap‐Aid and Gap‐Graph, which guides users to fill gaps in chromosome‐level genome assembly using sequence‐extension‐based and assembly‐graph‐based strategies. The two tools enable users with limited informatics expertise to efficiently complete gap‐filling on ...
