Microbial diversity in marine sediments of two hydrocarbon reservoir areas in the eastern Atlantic Ocean [PDF]

, 2022
Microbes are the main drivers of the biogeochemical cycles of carbon and other elements in marine sediments. The distribution of microorganisms, particularly at the centimeter scale, demonstrates the critical role of the local biogeochemical environment.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Microbial Diversity in Mining–Affected Forest Ecosystems: Exploring the Roles of Seasonality and Environmental Factors in Qinyuan County, Shanxi Province [PDF]

China has significant mineral resources, but prolonged extraction has caused considerable environmental degradation. Interactions among rhizosphere, phyllosphere, and soil microorganisms, along with host plants, are essential for supporting plant growth ...

Evaluating the microbial diversity of an in vitro model of the human large intestine by phylogenetic microarray analysis [PDF]

, 2010
A high-density phylogenetic microarray targeting small subunit rRNA (SSU rRNA) sequences of over 1000 microbial phylotypes of the human gastrointestinal tract, the HITChip, was used to assess the impact of faecal inoculum preparation and operation ...

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...
