Bridging clinical and environmental reservoirs: antimicrobial resistance in the emerging pathogen Shewanella algae

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy
The emergence of antimicrobial resistance in environmental bacteria threatens therapeutic efficacy in clinical settings. Shewanella algae, historically regarded as a marine saprophyte, is increasingly recognized as an emerging opportunistic pathogen.

Architecture of the superintegron in Vibrio cholerae: identification of core and unique genes [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/w6]

F1000Research, 2013
Background: Vibrio cholerae, the etiologic agent of cholera, is indigenous to aquatic environments. The V. cholerae genome consists of two chromosomes; the smallest of these harbors a large gene capture and excision system called the superintegron (SI ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Host adaptation and microbial competition drive Ralstonia solanacearum phylotype I evolution in the Republic of Korea

, 2020
Bacterial wilt caused by the Ralstonia solanacearum species complex (RSSC) threatens the cultivation of important crops worldwide. We sequenced 30 RSSC phylotype I (R. pseudosolanacearum) strains isolated from pepper (Capsicum annuum) and tomato (Solanum

C-Sibelia: an easy-to-use and highly accurate tool for bacterial genome comparison [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/27n]

F1000Research, 2013
We present C-Sibelia, a highly accurate and easy-to-use software tool for comparing two closely related bacterial genomes, which can be presented as either finished sequences or fragmented assemblies. C-Sibelia takes as input two FASTA files and produces:

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.

Exploratory experimentation and scientific practice: Metagenomics and the proteorhodopsin case [PDF]

, 2008
Exploratory experimentation and high-throughput molecular biology appear to have considerable affinity for each other. Included in the latter category is metagenomics, which is the DNA-based study of diverse microbial communities from a vast range of non-

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 ...

Exploring nucleo-cytoplasmic large DNA viruses in Tara Oceans microbial metagenomes [PDF]

, 2013
Nucleo-cytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs) constitute a group of eukaryotic viruses that can have crucial ecological roles in the sea by accelerating the turnover of their unicellular hosts or by causing diseases in animals. To better characterize the
