The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

The Dynamics of Cell-to-Cell Water Transport and the Involvement of Aquaporins in Response to Apoplast Blockage in the Roots of Intact Maize Plants

Cells
Investigating the contribution and interaction of water transport pathways in plant roots is important for understanding the functioning of the root hydraulic system. In this study, the real-time dynamics of lateral water transport along the cell-to-cell

An unexpected alternative viologen electron mediator site in tungsten‐containing formate dehydrogenase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

Bacterial and Fungal Diversity from the Rhizosphere of Plants Wildly Growing in Agricultural Soil Under Unfavourable Environmental Conditions

Biology and Life Sciences Forum
Rhizospheres harbor many beneficial microorganisms interacting with the plant ecosystem. However, in agriculture, there is a tendency to remove any plant that is different from that being cultivated.

Electron transfer between complexes III and IV in S. cerevisiae mitochondrial membranes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in S. cerevisiae mitoplasts is limited by complex IV catalytic capacity, rather than two‐dimensional cytochrome c diffusion. At physiological cytochrome c : supercomplex ratios at salinity equivalent to that of 20 mm monovalent salt, activity is maximized, indicating that this low ionic strength accurately mimics

Root Pruning Enhances Leaf Oxidative Stress and Anthocyanin Accumulation in Hydroponically Grown Red Leaf Lettuce

Oxygen
Root pruning has been proposed as a practical method to regulate growth and metabolite accumulation in horticultural crops, yet its physiological and metabolic consequences in hydroponically grown lettuce remain poorly understood.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

The gac system integrates physical and chemical cues to promote plant root attachment

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Plants host complex communities of microbes that are attached to root surfaces. While many studies have sampled mutant populations after prolonged incubation on roots to identify bacterial genes that enable long-term colonization, the molecular ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.
