Prokaryotic defense systems: Diversity and evolutionary adaptation

mLife
Bacteriophages and archaeal viruses are the most abundant biological entities on Earth. Through a long‐standing co‐evolutionary arms race, they have driven the emergence of a diverse repertoire of prokaryotic defense systems. This review summarizes these

New phenolic bisabolane sesquiterpenoids discovered from the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus sydowii assisted by molecular networking and SMART strategies

Mycology
Three previously undescribed phenolic bisabolane sesquiterpenoids (PBS) including a pair of new enantiomers (±)-aspersydonol A (1a/1b) and aspersydonol B (2), along with 12 known analogs (3–14) were isolated from the marine-associated fungus Aspergillus ...

High Humidity Exacerbates Psoriasiform Skin Disease Relapse by Increasing Tissue‐Resident Memory T Cells via Altering Skin Microbiota

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We demonstrated that high humidity worsened psoriasis relapse in murine psoriasiform skin inflammation by increasing skin‐resident memory CD8+ cells via upregulating IL‐15Rα on keratinocytes. The increases in IL‐15Rα and memory CD8+ cells were attributed to S. nepalensis and its metabolite ADMA in skin exposed to high humidity.

Discovery of antimicrobial anthraquinones with membrane-damaging effects from endophytic fungus Stagonosporopsis sp.

Mycology
Three new anthraquinone derivatives, stagonoquinones A−C (1−3), along with 11 known analogues, were isolated from the endophytic fungus Stagonosporopsis sp. YZHH-J-1 guided by a bioactivity-guided approach combined with HSQC-based DeepSAT analysis. Their

Detection of Protein–Protein Interactions in Escherichia coli With Single Molecule Sensitivity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This article describes a regulatory circuit in Escherichia coli able to detect protein–protein interactions with exquisite sensitivity. The interaction between two hybrid proteins fused to Bordetella pertussis adenylate cyclase and its activator calmodulin triggers a potent cyclic AMP signaling cascade.

Groundtruthing next-gen sequencing for microbial ecology-biases and errors in community structure estimates from PCR amplicon pyrosequencing

, 2012
Analysis of microbial communities by high-throughput pyrosequencing of SSU rRNA gene PCR amplicons has transformed microbial ecology research and led to the observation that many communities contain a diverse assortment of rare taxa-a phenomenon termed ...

Gut Microbiota Regulates Systemic Inflammatory Response and Compensatory Anti‐Inflammatory Response Syndromes by Targeting PF4+ Macrophages in Acute Pancreatitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute pancreatitis (AP) begins with pancreatic local inflammation, leading to the onset of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), followed by compensatory anti‐inflammatory response syndrome (CARS), which causes immune paralysis and higher mortality rate.
