Structural characterisation of nucleotide sugar short‐chain dehydrogenases/reductases from the thermophilic pseudomurein‐containing methanogen Methanothermobacter thermautotrophicus ΔH

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Nucleotide sugar short‐chain dehydrogenases/reductases (NS‐SDRs) are involved in pseudomurein and capsular polysaccharide formation in methanogenic Archaea. Methanothermobacter thermautotrophicus possesses several NS‐SDRs labelled Mth375, Mth380, Mth373, Mth631 and Mth1789.

A short peptide derived from late embryogenesis abundant proteins enhances acid tolerance in Escherichia coli via modulation of two‐component regulatory systems

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Expression of the LEA‐K peptide in E. coli BL21 (DE3) improved bacterial viability under acidic stress (pH4), suggesting a protective function. RNA‐sequencing of LEA‐K‐expressing vs. non‐expressing cells revealed 283 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). In silico docking linked LEA‐K to two‐component systems (TCS) proteins (Rcs, BtsS/R, and EnvZ/OmpR)

Heterologous plastoquinone production using a newly identified O2‐dependent cyanobacterial hydroxylase

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In this study, we confirm that PlqH is the hydroxylase operating in plastoquinone biosynthesis in photosynthetic cyanobacteria (Cyanobacteriia). Our phylogenetic analyses demonstrate that cyanobacterial PlqH homologues originated from hydroxylases involved in ubiquinone biosynthesis in bacteria. Plastoquinone production in Escherichia coli was achieved

Distribution and activity of nitrate and nitrite reductases in the microbiota of the human intestinal tract

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Nitrate from food is first converted to nitrite by oral bacteria and then further processed in the intestine. The gut microbiota reduces nitrate and nitrite to ammonia or nitric oxide, preventing the formation of carcinogenic nitrosamines. Our analysis highlights Escherichia coli as a key player in this detoxification process, supported by other ...
