Prioritizing precision: guidelines for the better use of population descriptors in human microbiome research

mSystems
Microbiome science is a celebration of the connections between humans, our environment, and microbial organisms. We are continually learning more about our microbial fingerprint, how each microbiome may respond to identical stimuli differently, and how ...

Development of a novel human intestinal model to elucidate the effect of anaerobic commensals on Escherichia coli infection

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2022
The gut microbiota plays a crucial role in protecting against enteric infection. However, the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown owing to a lack of suitable experimental models.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Mineralized microbes form Giggenbach submarine volcano

, 2008
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–

Using microbes as a key tool to unravel the mechanism of autophagy and the functions of the ATG proteins [PDF]

, 2016
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 ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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.

Usurpativirus massiliensis, a new giant virus related to clandestinovirus

Virology Journal
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

Journal of Oral Microbiology
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.
