The Drosophila melanogaster Metabolic Response against Parasitic Nematode Infection Is Mediated by TGF-β Signaling

Microorganisms, 2020
The nematode Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, its mutualistic bacterium Photorhabdus luminescens, and the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster establish a unique system to study the basis of infection in relation to host metabolism.

Evaluation of the mosquitocidal activity of Photorhabdus and Xenorhabdus extracts against the larvae of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)

Journal of Entomological and Acarological Research
Aedes aegypti is the main vector for dengue viruses. Alternative control of this mosquito was proposed because of its resistance to chemical insecticides.

The FsrA‐Mediated Iron‐Sparing Response Regulates the Biosynthesis of the Epipeptide EPE in Bacillus subtilis

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 125, Issue 2, Page 108-122, February 2026.
Under iron‐limited conditions, FsrA base‐pairs with the intergenic region between epeX and epeE, enhancing epeE translation and triggering EPE production. Toxin‐mediated cell lysis releases nutrients, including iron, which can be taken up by surviving cells.

Dissecting the immune response to the entomopathogen Photorhabdus [PDF]

Trends in Microbiology, 2010
Bacterial pathogens either hide from or modulate the host's immune response to ensure their survival. Photorhabdus is a potent insect pathogenic bacterium that uses entomopathogenic nematodes as vectors in a system that represents a useful tool for probing the molecular basis of immunity.

Selective Toxicity of Secondary Metabolites from the Entomopathogenic Bacterium Photorhabdus luminescens sonorensis against Selected Plant Parasitic Nematodes of the Tylenchina Suborder

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Entomopathogenic Photorhabdus bacteria (Enterobacteriaceae: Gamma-proteobacteria), the natural symbionts of Heterorhabditis nematodes, are a rich source for the discovery of biologically active secondary metabolites (SMs).

A Modular Biosensor Platform for the Detection of Plastic Monomers and the Engineering of Promiscuous Amidases Toward Challenging Substrates

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, 30 January 2026.
A luciferase is used as biosensor for aldehydes, produced enzymatically from different monomeric building blocks of plastics like polyurethanes (PUs). The screening platform is used to monitor esterase, amidase, and urethanase activity and to guide the selection of enzyme variants with improved hydrolytic activities toward difficult to hydrolyze ...
