Potential TMA-Producing Bacteria Are Ubiquitously Found in Mammalia
Human gut bacteria metabolize dietary components such as choline and carnitine to trimethylamine (TMA) that is subsequently oxidized to trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) by hepatic enzymes.

Higher-order interactions shape microbial interactions as microbial community complexity increases [PDF]
ABSTRACT Non-pairwise interactions, or higher-order interactions (HOIs), in microbial communities have been claimed to explain the emergent features in microbiomes. Yet, the re-organization of microbial interactions between pairwise cultures and larger communities remains largely unexplored from a molecular ...

The emerging potential of microbiome transplantation on human health interventions
The human microbiome has been the subject of intense research over the past few decades, in particular as a promising area for new clinical interventions. The microbiota colonizing the different body surfaces are of benefit for multiple physiological and

Microbial interactions in building of communities [PDF]
SummaryEstablishment of a community is considered to be essential for microbial growth and survival in the human oral cavity. Biofilm communities have increased resilience to physical forces, antimicrobial agents and nutritional variations. Specific cell‐to‐cell adherence processes, mediated by adhesin‐receptor pairings on respective microbial surfaces,

Pathogenic functions of host microbiota
Background It is becoming evident that certain features of human microbiota, encoded by distinct autochthonous taxa, promote disease. As a result, borders between the so-called opportunistic pathogens, pathobionts, and commensals are increasingly blurred,

Novel tools for genomic modification and heterologous gene expression in the phylum Planctomycetota
Members of the phylum Planctomycetota possess a plethora of intriguing and hitherto underexplored features including an enlarged periplasmic space, asymmetric cell division (“budding”), and a mostly undiscovered small molecule portfolio. Due to the large

Synergistic interactions in the microbial world [PDF]
After several decades of microbiological research has focused on pure cultures, synergistic effects between different types of microorganisms find increasing interest. Interspecies interactions between prokaryotic cells have been studied into depth mainly with respect to syntrophic cooperations involved in methanogenic degradation of electron-rich ...
