Artificial microbial consortia for bioproduction processes
AbstractThe application of artificial microbial consortia for biotechnological production processes is an emerging field in research as it offers great potential for the improvement of established as well as the development of novel processes. In this review, we summarize recent highlights in the usage of various microbial consortia for the production ...

Library purchasing consortia in the UK: activity, benefits and good practice. [PDF]
Following a brief introduction in Section 1, Section 2 sets out the operational context of library purchasing consortia. A range of key factors have shaped recent developments in the four LIS sectors under consideration (FE, HE, health and public ...

Majority sensing in synthetic microbial consortia [PDF]
AbstractAs synthetic biocircuits become more complex, distributing computations within multi-strain microbial consortia becomes increasingly beneficial. However, designing distributed circuits that respond predictably to variation in consortium composition remains a challenge.

Engineering consortia by polymeric microbial swarmbots
AbstractSynthetic microbial consortia represent a new frontier for synthetic biology given that they can solve more complex problems than monocultures. However, most attempts to co-cultivate these artificial communities fail because of the winner-takes-all in nutrients competition.

Engineering microbial consortia by division of labor [PDF]
During microbial applications, metabolic burdens can lead to a significant drop in cell performance. Novel synthetic biology tools or multi-step bioprocessing (e.g., fermentation followed by chemical conversions) are therefore needed to avoid compromised biochemical productivity from over-burdened cells.

Single strain control of microbial consortia [PDF]
Abstract The scale of the biological systems we can engineer is limited by the burden that host cells can bear. Division-of-labour can spread that burden across a community of cells but competitive exclusion inevitably leads to the removal of less fit community members over time.

In nature, microbes interact antagonistically, neutrally, or beneficially. To shed light on the effects of positive interactions in microbial consortia, we introduced metabolic dependencies and metabolite overproduction into four bacterial species. While
