Myxobacteria Mistaken for Nitrifying Bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1951
THE nitrifying bacteria, like the sulphur microorganisms, have been studied almost entirely from a physiological aspect. With the exception of Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter, the descriptions of the various genera have been copied from those given by the original investigators1.

Effects of Legume‒Cereal Rotation on Sorghum Rhizosphere Microbial Community Structure and Nitrogen‐Cycling Functions

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 5, October 2025.
Our metagenomic study revealed the impact of sorghum cultivated in soils previously grown with cowpea, soybean, and maize on rhizosphere microbiome and soil nitrogen cycling. ABSTRACT Legumes form mutualistic interactions with specific soil microbiomes that fix atmospheric nitrogen and improve soil fertility.

Genome-Wide Identification of Myxobacterial Predation Genes and Demonstration of Formaldehyde Secretion as a Potentially Predation-Resistant Trait of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Despite widespread use in human biology, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of bacteria are few and have, to date, focused primarily on pathogens.

Microtiter Plate Cultivation Systems Enable Chemically Diverse Metabolic Footprints During Bacterial Natural Product Discovery

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 122, Issue 8, Page 2021-2036, August 2025.
The utilization of microtiter plate cultivation systems in the discovery of natural products expands the secondary metabolic footprint. Microtiter plate cultivation systems, in particular the 48 well flower plate, facilitate the parallelization of bacterial cultivation and offer a greater degree of comparability to stirred tank bioreactors in ...

Bacterial Diversity in Deep‐Sea Sediments of the North Atlantic Ocean and Their Biosynthesis of Secondary Metabolites

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.
In this study, we isolated culturable bacteria associated with oceanic sediments and studied their production of secondary metabolites using metabolomics and genetic screening. Bacteria were cultivated from depths as great as 2000 m below sea level, with the majority of culturable taxa from all sampling sites belonging to the Pseudomonadota phylum. Our

Force and Flexibility of Flailing Myxobacteria [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2005
Myxococcus xanthus is a common Gram-negative bacterium that moves by a process called gliding motility. In myxobacteria, two distinct mechanisms for gliding have been discovered. S-type motility requires the extension, attachment, and retraction of type IV pili.

Total Synthesis of (+)‐Disorazole Z1

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 31, Issue 38, July 8, 2025.
The first total synthesis of disorazole Z1, a highly up to picomolar active cytotoxic natural product, is presented. An acyclic carbon chain containing a chiral quaternary carbon center surrounded by two chiral secondary alcohols was synthesized and combined with a functionalized diene‐stannane to obtain the carbon skeleton of one half of disorazole Z1.

Suppression of predominant interfering bacteria in the purification process of myxobacteria

open access: yesIranian Journal of Microbiology, 2022
Background and Objectives: Myxobacteria initially recognized by their complex life cycle and social behavior are progressively explored for their bioactive secondary metabolites. However, isolation of myxobacteria usually is accompanied by bacterial and

Microbes as Teachers: Rethinking Knowledge in the Anthropocene

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2025.
This essay positions microbes as active ‘teachers’ of ecological wisdom. Microbes demonstrate resilience, symbiosis and ecosystem intelligence through their metabolic networks, providing a dialogic learning experience. Emerging technologies enable reciprocal engagement with microbes, repositioning humans from observers to embedded learners of the vital

Comparison of myxobacterial diversity and evaluation of isolation success in two niches: Kiritimati Island and German compost

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2016
Myxobacteria harbor an enormous potential for new bioactive secondary metabolites and therefore the isolation of in particular new groups is of great interest.
