Summary: The auxin-inducible degron (AID) system is a useful technique to rapidly deplete any protein of interest “on-demand.” In this study, we successfully established the AID system for the “biotech” yeast Komagataella phaffii.

Synthetic microbial ecosystems : an exciting tool to understand and apply microbial communities [PDF]
Many microbial ecologists have described the composition of microbial communities in a plenitude of environments, which has greatly improved our basic understanding of microorganisms and ecosystems.

CDK11 inhibition stabilises the tumour suppressor p53 and triggers the production of an alternative p21WAF1 splice variant p21L, through the inactivation of the spliceosomal protein SF3B1. Unlike the canonical p21WAF1 protein, p21L is localised in the cytoplasm and has reduced cell cycle‐blocking activity.

Proteolysis of Rab32 by Salmonella GtgE induces an inactive GTPase conformation
Summary: Rab GTPases are central regulators of intracellular vesicular trafficking. They are frequently targeted by bacterial pathogens through post-translational modifications. Salmonella typhimurium secretes the cysteine protease GtgE during infection,

Nitrification-denitrification in WSP: a mechanism for permanent nitrogen removal in maturation ponds [PDF]
A pilot-scale primary maturation pond was spiked with 15N-labelled ammonia (15NH4Cl) and 15N labelled nitrite (Na15NO2), in order to improve current understanding of the dynamics of inorganic nitrogen transformations and removal in WSP systems.

Diverse reductive dehalogenases are associated with Clostridiales-enriched microcosms dechlorinating 1,2-dichloroethane [PDF]
The achievement of successful biostimulation of active microbiomes for the cleanup of a polluted site is strictly dependent on the knowledge of the key microorganisms equipped with the relevant catabolic genes responsible for the degradation process.

Effect of chemotherapy on passenger mutations in metastatic colorectal cancer
Changes in passenger mutation load and predicted immunotherapy response after chemotherapy treatment. Tumor cells rich with passenger mutations have increased sensitivity to chemotherapy. Correlation of passenger mutations with neoantigen load suggests highly mutated clones promote a more effective response to immunotherapy, and therefore, first‐line ...

On the kinetic and allosteric regulatory properties of the ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase from Rhodococcus jostii: An approach to evaluate glycogen metabolism in oleaginous bacteria [PDF]
Rhodococcus spp. are oleaginous bacteria that accumulate glycogen during exponential growth. Despite the importance of these microorganisms in biotechnology, little is known about the regulation of carbon and energy storage, mainly the relationship ...

An outer membrane determinant for RNA phage genome entry in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Summary: Host range of a phage is determined at the various life cycle stages during phage infection. We reported the limited phage-receptor interaction between the RNA phage, PP7 and its host Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains: PAO1 has susceptible type IV ...
