Gut Microbiota of Gray Snub‐Nosed Monkeys: Adaptation to Seasonal Variations Through Energy Compensation and Thermogenesis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Based on metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs), the gut microbiota of the gray snub‐nosed monkeys recovered 1229 non‐redundant MAGs. The gut microbiota showed an enhanced capacity to produce energy substrates with increased conversion activity of these substrates during winter.

Snake Gut Microbiota as a Source of Anti‐Inflammatory Probiotics: Isolation and Functional Characterization of Two Novel Strains

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study assessed the probiotic potential of intestinal microbiomes from five snake species using metagenomics and in vitro isolation, identifying two promising strains (Lactobacillus johnsonii DA0116 and Limosilactobacillus reuteri DA0218) through comprehensive screening.

Seasonal Dynamics of Community and Function of Gut Microbiome in Taihangshan Macaque (Macaca mulatta tcheliensis): Inferred From Metagenomic Data

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A total of 435 non‐redundant metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs) were obtained from fecal samples of Taihangshan macaque across all four seasons. The alpha diversity of the gut microbiome in spring and winter was significantly higher than in summer and autumn. Furthermore, marked differences were detected in functional pathways and carbohydrate enzymes

Dynamic quinone repertoire accompanied the diversification of energy metabolism in Pseudomonadota

International audienceAbstract It is currently unclear how Pseudomonadota, a phylum that originated around the time of the Great Oxidation Event, became one of the most abundant and diverse bacterial phyla on Earth, with metabolically versatile members ...

Comparative analysis of gut and ovarian microbiota in Dactylopius opuntiae (Hemiptera: Dactylopiidae) from distinct Moroccan regions

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionInvestigating the hidden microbial world within insect hosts yields new insights into their biology, ecology, and adaptation. Dactylopius opuntiae (Cockerell), a major invasive pest of the cactus Opuntia ficus-indica, causes severe economic ...

Alamandine/MrgD pathway modulates gut–bone marrow axis in ageing

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Ageing is associated with colon epithelial barrier disruption and up‐regulation of myelopoiesis in the bone marrow (BM). Alamandine (Ala) and MrgD are novel members of the renin angiotensin system (RAS). This study tested the hypothesis that Ala restores the colon epithelial barrier integrity in ageing via modulating gut–

Crystal structure and biochemical analysis of the polyester‐degrading carboxylesterase SM0281 from the symbiotic legume‐associated rhizobacterium Sinorhizobium (Ensifer) meliloti

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The microbial degradation of synthetic polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is mediated by diverse α/β‐hydrolases, many of which remain poorly characterized. In this study, we investigated the α/β‐hydrolase SM0281 from Sinorhizobium meliloti and found that it exhibits robust carboxylesterase and polyesterase activities toward PET, PCL ...

Adaptation to a host-associated lifestyle is associated with convergent loss of flagella-related genes in Pseudomonadota

BMC Genomics
Background Host-associated bacteria must balance the benefits of motility through flagella against the offsets of energetic costs and immune surveillance.
