Comparative Analysis of Gut Microbial Community Structure of Three Tropical Sea Cucumber Species [PDF]

, 2023
Based on 16S rRNA gene high-throughput sequencing technology, the microbial community structure in the gut of three tropical sea cucumber species, Holothuria atra, Stichopus chloronotus, and S. monotuberculatus, and their habitat sediments were analyzed.

Trifunctional flavoenzyme-catalyzed asymmetric 4-alkyl-butenolide assembly in avenolide biosynthesis

Nature Communications
Butenolides are important features of many bioactive compounds. Current petrochemical-based methods for asymmetric butenolide synthesis are unsustainable. Biocatalysis could enable cheaper, greener, and more sustainable alternatives.

Antisense Transcription Is Pervasive but Rarely Conserved in Enteric Bacteria

mBio, 2012
Noncoding RNAs, including antisense RNAs (asRNAs) that originate from the complementary strand of protein-coding genes, are involved in the regulation of gene expression in all domains of life.

Diversity of Microbial Metal Sulfide Biomineralization

ChemPlusChem, 2021
AbstractSince the emergence of life on Earth, microorganisms have contributed to biogeochemical cycles. Sulfate‐reducing bacteria are an example of widespread microorganisms that participate in the metal and sulfur cycles by biomineralization of biogenic metal sulfides.

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.

Comparative analysis of pyrosequencing and a phylogenetic microarray for exploring microbial community structures in the human distal intestine [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: Variations in the composition of the human intestinal microbiota are linked to diverse health conditions. High-throughput molecular technologies have recently elucidated microbial community structure at much higher resolution than was ...

Diversity of oligosaccharides in lipooligosaccharides of Akkermansia muciniphila and its anti-atherosclerotic activity

Natural Products and Bioprospecting
As an important and beneficial gut commensal, Akkermansia muciniphila plays a crucial role in regulating host metabolism and immunity. Lipooligosaccharides from A. muciniphila (ALOS) show anti-obesity effects in high-fat diet-fed mice.

CRISPR/Cas9 nickase-mediated cytosine base editing in Trichoderma koningiopsis

Mycology
Base editors are regarded as reliable and precise editing tools due to their ability to efficiently and accurately modify the target genes without inducing double-strand breaks (DSBs).

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Microbial diversity in contaminated soil [PDF]

, 2002
Little is known about soil population dynamics: how microbial communities are affected by environmental stress; whether they respond adversely, or adjust to it; what the extent and duration of these adjustments might be; which genera of bacteria are ...
