A Combinatorial Algorithm for Microbial Consortia Synthetic Design [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
AbstractSynthetic biology has boomed since the early 2000s when it started being shown that it was possible to efficiently synthetize compounds of interest in a much more rapid and effective way by using other organisms than those naturally producing them.

Ecosystem Functions of Microbial Consortia in Sustainable Agriculture

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Knowledge of the agricultural soil microbiota, of the microbial consortia that comprise it, and the promotion of agricultural practices that maintain and encourage them, is a promising way to improve soil quality for sustainable agriculture and to ...

Artificial Microbial Arenas: Materials for Observing and Manipulating Microbial Consortia [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, 2019
AbstractFrom the smallest ecological niche to global scale, communities of microbial life present a major factor in system regulation and stability. As long as laboratory studies remain restricted to single or few species assemblies, however, very little is known about the interaction patterns and exogenous factors controlling the dynamics of natural ...

Enrichment of syngas-converting mixed microbial consortia for ethanol production and thermodynamics-based design of enrichment strategies

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
Background The production of ethanol through the biochemical conversion of syngas, a mixture of H2, CO and CO2, has been typically studied using pure cultures.

The use of probiotic cultures in the technology of protein fermented milk products [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
The article provides a brief justification for the need to create new fermented milk products with probiotic properties based on microbial consortia consisting of thermophilic lactic acid streptococcus, propionic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria.

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

open access: yesFEBS 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.
