Metabolization of Flavan‐3‐ol Oligomers by Eggerthella lenta, a Human Gut Bacterium
Novel human gut bacterial strains were isolated and characterized for their ability to metabolize flavan‐3‐ols. While Eggerthella lenta and Flavonifractor plautii metabolized flavan‐3‐ol monomers, only E. lenta converted B‐ and A‐type procyanidins, demonstrating that this gut bacterium can metabolize flavan‐3‐ol oligomers.

Two distinct alcohol dehydrogenase classes mediate bacterial 2‐hydroxyethylphosphonate catabolism
Abstract Phosphonates are molecules containing a direct carbon‐phosphorus bond. In nature, these compounds are produced by a variety of organisms, and many environmental microbes are able to degrade specific phosphonates and feed on them. This work focuses on 2‐hydroxyethylphosphonate (HEP)—a natural compound that is found frequently in the environment,

This study demonstrates that specific ectomycorrhizal fungal taxa are associated with trade‐offs between greater tree growth and reduced soil carbon concentrations in boreal forests. This work presents field‐based evidence consistent with the emerging understanding that ectomycorrhizal fungi influence ecosystem carbon stocks through the enzymatic ...

Identification of Molecular Pathways Underlying Mn(II) Oxidation in Pseudomonas resinovorans
Transposon mutagenesis in biofilter‐associated Pseudomonas resinovorans MOB‐513 identifies a c‐di‐GMP‐dependent regulatory network involving type IV pili, two‐component systems, and diguanylate cyclases that controls Mn(II) oxidation and biofilm formation, providing new insight into microbial manganese cycling and biofilter performance.

The largetooth sawfish skin supports a distinct microbiome enriched in anaerobic metabolic and dormancy potential, consistent with microbial persistence under low‐oxygen conditions. Greater among‐individual taxonomic variability coupled with functional redundancy potential supports a lottery‐like mechanism of microbiome assembly.
