Evolution of Chi motifs in Proteobacteria [PDF]
G3 Genes|Genomes|Genetics, 2020 AbstractHomologous recombination is a key pathway found in nearly all bacterial taxa. The recombination complex allows bacteria to repair DNA double strand breaks but also promotes adaption through the exchange of DNA between cells. In Proteobacteria, this process is mediated by the RecBCD complex, which relies on the recognition of a DNA motif named ...

The small bowel microbiome changes significantly with age and aspects of the ageing process
Microbial Cell, 2021 Gut microbiome changes have been associated with human ageing and implicated in age-related diseases including Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. However, studies to date have used stool samples, which do not represent the entire gut.

The metagenomics of biosilicification: causes and effects [PDF]
, 2008 In order to determine the links between geochemical parameters controlling the formation of silica sinter in hot springs and their associated microbial diversity, a detailed characterisation of the waters and of in situ-grown silica sinters was combined ...

Shifts in the bacterial community composition along deep soil profiles in monospecific and mixed stands of Eucalyptus grandis and Acacia mangium [PDF]
, 2017 Our knowledge of the rhizosphere bacterial communities in deep soils and the role of Eucalyptus and Acacia on the structure of these communities remains very limited.

Classifying the Topology of AHL-Driven Quorum Sensing Circuits in Proteobacterial Genomes
Sensors, 2012 Virulence and adaptability of many Gram-negative bacterial species are associated with an <em>N</em>-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL) gene regulation mechanism called quorum sensing (QS).

Magnetic genes: Studying the genetics of biomineralization in magnetotactic bacteria. [PDF]
, 2020 Many species of bacteria can manufacture materials on a finer scale than those that are synthetically made. These products are often produced within intracellular compartments that bear many hallmarks of eukaryotic organelles.
