Discovering Hidden Archaeal and Bacterial Lipid Producers in a Euxinic Marine System

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2025.
We investigated the bacterial and archaeal membrane lipids in the Black Sea, focusing on isoprenoidal and branched GDGTs, combining high‐resolution accurate mass/mass spectrometry with metagenomics. Our objective was to identify the potential biological producers of these lipids and to begin understanding their role in microbial adaptation.

Crystallization of self-propelled hard-discs : a new scenario

open access: yes, 2016
We experimentally study the crystallization of a monolayer of vibrated discs with a built-in polar asymmetry, a model system of active liquids, and contrast it with that of vibrated isotropic discs.

Phase transitions during fruiting body formation in Myxococcus xanthus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The formation of a collectively moving group benefits individuals within a population in a variety of ways such as ultra-sensitivity to perturbation, collective modes of feeding, and protection from environmental stress.

The myxocoumarins A and B from Stigmatella aurantiaca strain MYX-030

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2013
The myxobacterial strain Stigmatella aurantiaca MYX-030 was selected as promising source for the discovery of new biologically active natural products by our screening methodology. The isolation, structure elucidation and initial biological evaluation of

Myxobacteria Are Able to Prey Broadly upon Clinically-Relevant Pathogens, Exhibiting a Prey Range Which Cannot Be Explained by Phylogeny

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Myxobacteria are natural predators of microorganisms and the subjects of concerted efforts to identify novel antimicrobial compounds. Myxobacterial predatory activity seems to require more than just the possession of specific antimicrobial metabolites ...

Antibiotics from predatory bacteria

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2016
Bacteria, which prey on other microorganisms, are commonly found in the environment. While some of these organisms act as solitary hunters, others band together in large consortia before they attack their prey.

Search for hits and early leads from soil bacteria to combat infectious diseases

open access: yesJournal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2018
Introduction: Natural products are the source of a large fraction of the current pharmaceutics available against human disease. However, the discovery of novel compounds with new mechanisms of action is becoming increasingly challenging.

Linearly edge-reinforced random walks

open access: yes, 2006
We review results on linearly edge-reinforced random walks. On finite graphs, the process has the same distribution as a mixture of reversible Markov chains. This has applications in Bayesian statistics and it has been used in studying the random walk on

Active Brownian Particles. From Individual to Collective Stochastic Dynamics

open access: yes, 2012
We review theoretical models of individual motility as well as collective dynamics and pattern formation of active particles. We focus on simple models of active dynamics with a particular emphasis on nonlinear and stochastic dynamics of such self ...

Results of a fish health survey of North Biscayne Bay, June 1976-June 1977 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Fish were collected weekly in Biscayne Bay using a monofilament gill net set from a small skiff during 20-30 minute intervals. Although weekly sampling took place for 2.5 years, only the data from samples collected from June 1976 to June 1977 were used ...
