Impact of inoculum type on the microbial community and power performance of urine-fed microbial fuel cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Bacteria are the driving force of the microbial fuel cell (MFC) technology, which benefits from their natural ability to degrade organic matter and generate electricity. The development of an efficient anodic biofilm has a significant impact on the power

Biochemical and Taxonomic Characterization of Novel Haloarchaeal Strains and Purification of the Recombinant Halotolerant α-Amylase Discovered in the Isolate

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Haloarchaea are salt-loving archaea and potential source of industrially relevant halotolerant enzymes. In the present study, three reddish-pink, extremely halophilic archaeal strains, namely wsp1 (wsp-water sample Pondicherry), wsp3, and wsp4, were ...

A novel thermostable alkaline histamine oxidase from Glutamicibacter sp. N1A3101, induced by histamine and its analogue betahistine

open access: yesAMB Express, 2020
Biogenic amines (BAs) are low molecular weight organic bases formed by natural amino acids decarboxylation and trigger an array of toxicological effects in humans and animals.

Anoxic Biodegradation of Isosaccharinic Acids at Alkaline pH by Natural Microbial Communities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
One design concept for the long-term management of the UK’s intermediate level radioactive wastes (ILW) is disposal to a cementitious geological disposal facility (GDF).

Hsp90 Breaks the Deadlock of the Hsp70 Chaperone System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Protein folding in the cell requires ATP-driven chaperone machines such as the conserved Hsp70 and Hsp90. It is enigmatic how these machines fold proteins.

Structural basis for the biosynthesis of lovastatin

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Biosynthesis of the statin precursor lovastatin depends on the LovB–LovC megasynthase complex. Here, the authors present cryoEM structures of LovB–LovC and core LovB, providing structural insights into the catalytic cycle underlying lovastatin production.

Recombinant protein expression in microbial systems [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
With the advent of recombinant DNA technology, expressing heterologous proteins in microorganisms rapidly became the method of choice for their production at laboratory and industrial scale. Bacteria, yeasts and other hosts can be grown to high biomass levels efficiently and inexpensively.

A comparison of rpoB and 16S rRNA as markers in pyrosequencing studies of bacterial diversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: The 16S rRNA gene is the gold standard in molecular surveys of bacterial and archaeal diversity, but it has the disadvantages that it is often multiple-copy, has little resolution below the species level and cannot be readily interpreted in ...

Engineered ACE2 receptor therapy overcomes mutational escape of SARS-CoV-2

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Hoshino et al., engineer a human virus receptor, hACE2, and demonstrate its potential for overcoming SARS-CoV-2 mutations that otherwise hinder therapeutic interventions.

Metaproteomics for analysis of microbial function in the environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This report briefly describes the use of proteomic analyses to examine protein expression directly from environmental samples (termed metaproteomics).
