Microbial community succession on developing lesions on human enamel

Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2012
Dental caries is one of the most common diseases in the world. However, our understanding of how the microbial community composition changes in vivo as caries develops is lacking.An in vivo model was used in a longitudinal cohort study to investigate ...

Reliable and robust control of nucleus centering is contingent on nonequilibrium force patterns

iScience, 2023
Summary: Cell centers their division apparatus to ensure symmetric cell division, a challenging task when the governing dynamics is stochastic. Using fission yeast, we show that the patterning of nonequilibrium polymerization forces of microtubule (MT ...

Quorum Sensing Behavior in the Model Unicellular Eukaryote Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

iScience, 2020
Summary: Microbial communities display behavioral changes in response to variable environmental conditions. In some bacteria, motility increases as a function of cell density, allowing for population dispersal before the onset of nutrient scarcity ...

Glutamate signaling mediates C. elegans behavioral plasticity to pathogens

iScience, 2022
Summary: In Caenorhabditis elegans, sensory neurons mediate behavioral response to pathogens. However, how C. elegans intergrades these sensory signals via downstream neuronal and molecular networks remains largely unknown. Here, we report that glutamate

Translocation across a human enteroid monolayer by zoonotic Streptococcus suis correlates with the presence of Gb3-positive cells

iScience
Summary: Streptococcus suis is a zoonotic pathogen that can cause meningitis and septicaemia. The consumption of undercooked pig products is an important risk factor for zoonotic infections, suggesting an oral route of infection.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.
