Analysis of novel bacterial metagenome-assembled genomes from lignin-degrading microbial consortia [PDF]
Despite recent progress, bacterial degradation of lignin is not completely understood. To address the mechanisms that bacteria from unknown taxonomic groups use to perform lignin-monomer degradation, functional analysis of bacterial metagenome-assembled genomes from soil-derived consortia enriched for microorganisms capable of degrading lignin was ...

Noncanonical Peloruside A Biosynthesis by an Uncultivated Verrucomicrobiota Symbiont
Noncanonical biochemistry of the peloruside PKS characterized in this work, comprising double bond generation by a noncanonical tridomain (blue), acetyl‐CoA recycling (orange), and proofreading systems (purple and yellow). The Z‐double bond is installed by TEB1 through O‐acetylation and acetate elimination. The acyl ligase PelB (AL, orange) selectively

Species identification and profiling of complex microbial communities using shotgun Illumina sequencing of 16S rRNA amplicon sequences. [PDF]
The high throughput and cost-effectiveness afforded by short-read sequencing technologies, in principle, enable researchers to perform 16S rRNA profiling of complex microbial communities at unprecedented depth and resolution. Existing Illumina sequencing

Metagenomic assembly unravel microbial response to redox fluctuation in acid sulfate soil [PDF]
Abstract Acid sulfate soil (ASS) is sensitive to redox fluctuations induced by climate change and human activities. Oxidation of sulfur and sulfide in ASS leads to the release of acid and consequently metals, posing severe hazards to coastal environment, while microbial contribution and response to oxidation is poorly understood.

CAMISIM: simulating metagenomes and microbial communities
Background Shotgun metagenome data sets of microbial communities are highly diverse, not only due to the natural variation of the underlying biological systems, but also due to differences in laboratory protocols, replicate numbers, and sequencing ...

Seeing the forest for the genes: using metagenomics to infer the aggregated traits of microbial communities [PDF]
Most environments harbor large numbers of microbial taxa with ecologies that remain poorly described and characterizing the functional capabilities of whole communities remains a key challenge in microbial ecology.
