Mineralized microbes form Giggenbach submarine volcano
The Giggenbach submarine volcano, which forms part of the Kermadec active arc front, is located ∼780 km NNE of the North Island of New Zealand. Samples collected from chimneys associated with seafloor hydrothermal vents on this volcano, at a depth of 160–

Usurpativirus massiliensis, a new giant virus related to clandestinovirus
Giant virus discovery in 2003 revolutionized the virus paradigm. In 2015, we introduced a new host, Vermamoeba vermiformis, that led to the discovery of Faustovirus, Orpheovirus and two giant viruses (Clandestinovirus and a faustovirus) having distinct ...

Methanobrevibacter oralis: a comprehensive review
Methanobrevibacter oralis (M. oralis) has predominated human oral microbiota methanogenic archaea as far back as the Palaeolithic era in Neanderthal populations and gained dominance from the 18th century onwards. M.

Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Using microbes as a key tool to unravel the mechanism of autophagy and the functions of the ATG proteins [PDF]
The study of microbe infections has always been a very effective approach to unveil and dissect cellular pathways. Autophagy is not an exception. Although some of the breakthrough discoveries in the field were obtained using yeast, pathogens have been ...
