Hydrologic History Regulates Microbial Biofilm Diversity and Ecosystem Function

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2026.
Hydrologic history regulates microbial biofilm diversity and ecosystem function. Historical flooding, but not drought, led to broad changes in composition and functional genes. ABSTRACT Aquatic biofilms are an understudied component of northern peatlands and are expected to play a more prominent role in ecosystem processes in areas where aquatic ...

Plasmid-Dependent Methylotrophy in Thermotolerant Bacillus methanolicus [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2004
ABSTRACT Bacillus methanolicus can efficiently utilize methanol as a sole carbon source and has an optimum growth temperature of 50°C. With the exception of mannitol, no sugars have been reported to support rapid growth of this organism, which is classified as a restrictive methylotroph.

River Microbiomes as Sentinels of National‐Scale Freshwater Ecosystems

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
River biofilms are complex microbial assemblages that underpin aquatic food webs and play a central role in biogeochemical cycling. By responding to environmental signals over space and time, biofilm microbial communities can act as sensitive indicators of river health.

Lanthanide‐Controlled Protein Switches: Development and In Vitro and In Vivo Applications

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 9, February 24, 2025.
Engineering artificial allosteric protein switches controlled by rare earth elements allows the development of assays, construction of bioelectronic devices, and REE‐controlled microorganisms. Abstract Lanthanides, which are part of the rare earth elements group have numerous applications in electronics, medicine and energy storage.

Yeast‐Based Biotechnology for Civilian Security

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Yeasts constitute robust and versatile eukaryotic platforms for biotechnological applications relevant to civilian security. Both native and genetically engineered yeast systems enable sensitive detection of chemical and biological hazards, effective removal of metals and organic pollutants, and detoxification of mycotoxins.

Comparative Binding Studies of the Chelators Methylolanthanin and Rhodopetrobactin B to Lanthanides and Ferric Iron

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
The synthesis and the investigation of the lanthanide (Ln) and Fe‐binding properties of the putative lanthanophore methylolanthanin (MLL) and the siderophore rhodopetrobactin B (RPB B) are reported. While both chelators bind Lns, they unexpectedly precipitate with Lns under biologically relevant conditions and thereby challenge the proposed classic ...

Foundational Tools for Synthetic Methylotrophy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

, 2023
The global expansion of biomanufacturing is currently limited by the availability of sugar-based microbial feedstocks. One-carbon feedstocks, like methanol, present an enticing alternative to sugar because they can be produced from organic waste ...

Climate and microbial community composition drive shifts in ecosystem function along three parallel elevational gradients

Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 12, December 2025.
Mountains are home to steep elevational gradients in environmental factors, biodiversity and ecosystem functionality. Though these gradients are tightly connected, little is known about the relative contribution of environmental and biotic factors in driving elevational changes in ecosystem functionality.

Influence of Plant Genotype on Nodule‐Associated Bacterial Community Composition and Function in Seasonal Field Pea Varieties

Legume Science, Volume 7, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Legume root nodules host symbiotic rhizobia that are essential for nitrogen fixation but also harbor diverse non‐rhizobial taxa that remain poorly characterized. Field pea (Pisum sativum) cultivars adapted to distinct seasonal growth (spring and winter) offer an opportunity to explore whether host genotype influences nodule‐associated ...
