Microarray analysis and barcoded pyrosequencing provide consistent microbial profiles depending on the source of human intestinal samples [PDF]

, 2011
Large-scale and in-depth characterization of the intestinal microbiota necessitates application of high-throughput 16S rRNA gene-based technologies, such as barcoded pyrosequencing and phylogenetic microarray analysis.

Three New Fungi from China: A Potentially Psychoactive Psilocybe and Two Deconica Species

Journal of Fungi
The saprotrophic genera Deconica and Psilocybe exhibit broad geographic distributions across temperate and subtropical biomes globally. Despite China’s rich fungal diversity, taxonomic studies of these genera remain limited, with few species previously ...

A study of microbial diversity in a biofertilizer consortium

PLOS ONE, 2023
Biofertilizers supply living microorganisms to help plants grow and keep their health. This study examines the microbiome composition of a commercial biofertilizer known for its plant growth-promoting activity. Using ITS and 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses, we describe the microbial communities of a biofertilizer, with 163 fungal species and 485 ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Tri-valorization of methanol in a single bioreactor: co-production of enzyme, chemical, and single-cell protein using engineered Pichia pastoris (Komagataella phaffii)

Bioresources and Bioprocessing
The economic viability of methanol-based biomanufacturing, particularly with green methanol as feedstock, is often limited by the low value of single-product processes.

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...

Influences of soil properties on archaeal diversity and distribution in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica [PDF]

, 2011
The Antarctic Dry Valleys are characterized by extremely low temperatures, arid conditions, high salinity and virtual absence of plants. Therefore, food webs of these microbially dominated soils are among the simplest on earth making these mineral soils ...

Exploring the sources of bacterial spoilers in beefsteaks by culture-independent high-throughput sequencing [PDF]

, 2013
Microbial growth on meat to unacceptable levels contributes significantly to change meat structure, color and flavor and to cause meat spoilage. The types of microorganisms initially present in meat depend on several factors and multiple sources of ...
