Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Most isolates belonging to the Bacillus amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum clade retain the potential to produce a vast array of structurally diverse antimicrobial compounds that largely contribute to their efficacy as biocontrol agents against numerous ...

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 ...

Microbial interactions in building of communities [PDF]
Molecular Oral Microbiology, 2012 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,

Scientific ReportsThe flame-like reddish to orange-pigmented planctomycetal strain SH139T was isolated from brackish water obtained from Fjord Schlei in Northern Germany as part of an isolation effort led by Heinz Schlesner at Kiel University between the 1980s and early ...

Bacterial Adaptation during Chronic Respiratory Infections
Pathogens, 2015 Chronic lung infections are associated with increased morbidity and mortality for individuals with underlying respiratory conditions such as cystic fibrosis (CF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The process of chronic colonisation allows

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.

Scientific ReportsThe majority of characterized members of the phylum Planctomycetota were isolated from marine habitats. To expand the open collection of limnic planctomycetes, we here characterize three isolates from the strain collection of Heinz Schlesner (Kiel ...

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 ...

Environmental shaping of codon usage and functional adaptation across microbial communities. [PDF]
, 2013 Microbial communities represent the largest portion of the Earth's biomass. Metagenomics projects use high-throughput sequencing to survey these communities and shed light on genetic capabilities that enable microbes to inhabit every corner of the ...

Scientific ReportsMembers of the phylum Gemmatimonadota can account for up to 10% of the phylogenetic diversity in bacterial communities. However, a detailed investigation of their cell biology and ecological roles is restricted by currently only six characterized species.
