PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.The global decline in biodiversity can be partly ameliorated by sympathetic design of green spaces within urban environments. This includes roundabouts on road systems. This study utilised a combination of approaches to assess levels of plant and bacterial diversity in roundabouts of varying size, soil characteristics and habitat complexity.

OmpA_C-Like Domain of PorE Is Essential for PorE Function in the Type IX Secretion System (T9SS) of Porphyromonas gingivalis and Some T9SS Cargo Proteins Are Secreted in a PorE-Independent Manner. [PDF]
Microbiol ImmunolABSTRACT The periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis secretes gingipains, highly hydrolytic proteases, to the cell surface or external environment via a type IX secretion system (T9SS). PorE is one of the T9SS component proteins essential for gingipain secretion. It consists of four domains: TPR, WD40, CRD, and OmpA_C‐like.
