A synthetic Escherichia coli predator–prey ecosystem [PDF]
, 2008 We have constructed a synthetic ecosystem consisting of two Escherichia coli populations, which communicate bi-directionally through quorum sensing and regulate each other's gene expression and survival via engineered gene circuits.

Supplementary information for "Selective sweeps in growing microbial colonies" [PDF]
Supplementary information for Physical Biology 9, 026008 (2012), 2012 This is supplementary information for arXiv:1204.4896, which also appeared in Physical Biology 9, 026008 (2012). Main text abstract: Evolutionary experiments with microbes are a powerful tool to study mutations and natural selection. These experiments, however, are often limited to the well-mixed environments of a test tube or a chemostat.

Clinically Relevant Metallic Nanoparticles in Tuberculosis Diagnosis and Therapy
Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health challenge, with drug‐resistant strains exacerbating the issue. Metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) show promise in TB diagnosis as sensor probes and in combination therapy with antimycobacterial drugs, requiring further pre‐clinical and clinical research for clinical translation.

Meta-analysis reveals ammonia-oxidizing bacteria respond more strongly to nitrogen addition than ammonia-oxidizing archaea [PDF]
, 2016 Shifts in microbial communities driven by anthropogenic nitrogen (N) addition have broad-scale ecological consequences. However, responses of microbial groups to exogenous N supply vary considerably across studies, hindering efforts to predict community ...

A population-based microbial oscillator [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 Genetic oscillators are a major theme of interest in the emerging field of synthetic biology. Until recently, most work has been carried out using intra-cellular oscillators, but this approach restricts the broader applicability of such systems. Motivated by a desire to develop large-scale, spatially-distributed cell-based computational systems, we ...
