Enhanced biosynthesis of arbutin by engineering shikimate pathway in Pseudomonas chlororaphis P3

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2018
Background Arbutin is a plant-derived glycoside with potential antioxidant, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities. Currently, it is mainly produced by plant extraction or enzymatic processes, which suffers from expensive processing cost and low ...

Probiotic modulation of symbiotic gut microbial-host metabolic interactions in a humanized microbiome mouse model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The transgenomic metabolic effects of exposure to either Lactobacillus paracasei or Lactobacillus rhamnosus probiotics have been measured and mapped in humanized extended genome mice (germ-free mice colonized with human baby flora).

Environmental shaping of codon usage and functional adaptation across microbial communities. [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Characterization of a recombinant thermotolerant argonaute protein as an endonuclease by broad guide utilization

open access: yesBioresources and Bioprocessing, 2019
Background Prokaryotic argonaute proteins (pAgos) play an important role in host defense in vivo. Most importantly, the thermophilic pAgos with endonuclease activity hold great potential for programmable genetic manipulation.

Microbial metal resistance and metabolism across dynamic landscapes: high-throughput environmental microbiology. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Multidimensional gradients of inorganic compounds influence microbial activity in diverse pristine and anthropogenically perturbed environments. Here, we suggest that high-throughput cultivation and genetics can be systematically applied to generate ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Dammarenediol II enhances etoposide‐induced apoptosis by targeting O‐GlcNAc transferase and Akt/GSK3β/mTOR signaling in liver cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Etoposide induces DNA damage, activating p53‐dependent apoptosis via caspase‐3/7, which cleaves PARP1. Dammarenediol II enhances this apoptotic pathway by suppressing O‐GlcNAc transferase activity, further decreasing O‐GlcNAcylation. The reduction in O‐GlcNAc levels boosts p53‐driven apoptosis and influences the Akt/GSK3β/mTOR signaling pathway ...
