Comparative Genomics of Microbacterium Species to Reveal Diversity, Potential for Secondary Metabolites and Heavy Metal Resistance

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Microbacterium species have been isolated from a wide range of hosts and environments, including heavy metal-contaminated sites. Here, we present a comprehensive analysis on the phylogenetic distribution and the genetic potential of 70 Microbacterium ...

Seed phytochemicals shape the community structures of cultivable actinobacteria-inhabiting plant interiors of Thai pigmented rice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We examined abundance, bioactivity, and endophytism of cultivable actinobacteria isolated from plant interiors of two Thai pigmented rice cultivars: Hom Nin (HN) rice and Luem Pua (LP) glutinous rice.

Siderophore production by Vibrio cholerae [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1978
Vibrio cholerae produces a phenolate-type siderophore that stimulates growth of the organism in low-iron medium. This compound is similar, but not identical, to enterochelin, the siderophore produced by Salmonella and Escherichia coli.

LCN2‐ACOD1 Signalling Affects the Post‐Injury Regeneration of Skeletal Muscle Through Mediating Ferroptosis

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
LCN2 mediates the suppression of C2C12 myoblast proliferation and myotube formation via erastin‐induced ferroptosis. Mechanistically, the LCN2‐ACOD1 axis regulates skeletal muscle growth via mitochondria‐associated ferroptosis, providing a theoretical basis for the prevention and therapy of muscle‐related diseases.

Plant‐produced encapsulin displays non‐typhoidal Salmonella enterica antigens and assembles into mosaic nanoparticles

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study investigates the potential of encapsulin as an antigen display platform for the development of a candidate Salmonella vaccine for poultry. Encapsulin constructs were transiently expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana where they accumulated to high levels.

Transition metal ions at the crossroads of mucosal immunity and microbial pathogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Transition metal ions are essential micronutrients for all living organisms. In mammals, these ions are often protein-bound and sequestered within cells, limiting their availability to microbes. Moreover, in response to infection, mammalian hosts further

Deciphering the biosynthetic pathways of lichen acids

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Depsides and depsidones are polyketide‐derived lichen acids widely distributed in lichen thalli, yet the biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) responsible for their production remain poorly understood. To address this gap, we investigated the diversity and evolutionary relationships of polyketide BGCs in lichens.

Bacillus anthracis Siderophores

open access: yesProblems of Particularly Dangerous Infections, 2016
Iron is an essential for growth and reproduction of bacteria element. One of the ways of its acquisition by Bacillus anthracis is utilization of high-affinity chelating agents of iron ions - bacillibactin and petrobactin siderophores, extracting the iron from transferring and ferritin of a host cell. Bacillibactin and petrobactin functions are realized

Rhizobial motility preference in root colonization of Medicago truncatula

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Tunnel‐like infection thread (IT) structures support root colonization by symbiotic nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia bacteria in most legume species. These tip‐grown structures are key to directing rhizobia from root hairs to developing nodules, where they are hosted to fix nitrogen.

Advancing Plant Microbiome Research Through Host DNA Depletion Techniques

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
The plant microbiome plays an essential role in promoting plant growth, enhancing stress tolerance and maintaining overall plant health. Metagenomic technologies have significantly expanded our ability to investigate plant–microbe interactions at high taxonomic and functional resolutions.
