Induction and Enhancement of Bacteriocin Production (Review)

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventionally, bacteriocins are produced by microorganisms on complex substrates, released as semi‐purified preparations or crude fermentates. These bacteriocin‐containing products often exhibit unsatisfactory purity, low active‐substance content, and high production costs, limiting their commercialization and use. This review aims to analyze

Microbial Primer: Agr-mediated quorum sensing in Gram-positive pathogens [PDF]

Gram-positive bacteria commonly employ autoinducing peptide (AIP) signal molecules to co-ordinate gene expression at the population level. This primer provides a basic overview of agr-dependent quorum sensing systems and outlines how AIPs are produced ...

Autonomous Control of Gene Expression Using Endogenous Transcription Signals

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autonomous cell‐based control of heterologous gene expression can simplify batch‐culture bioprocessing by eliminating external monitoring and extrinsic control of culture conditions. Existing approaches use auto‐induction media, synthetic cell‐cell communication systems, or application‐specific biosensors.

Beyond antimicrobials: Ecological nano‐strategies for rebalancing dysbiotic oral microbial homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Oral microbial homeostasis, a dynamic host‐microbe balance, is vital in infectious diseases. Conventional antibiotics often disrupt this homeostasis, spurring interest in nanomaterials for oral microbial homeostasis rebalancing. This review outlines nanomaterial strategies across three ecological levels (population/community, ecosystem, and cross ...
