Virulence factors in carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Hypervirulence and carbapenem-resistant have emerged as two distinct evolutionary pathotypes of Klebsiella pneumoniae, with both reaching their epidemic success and posing a great threat to public health.

T2T Genome Assembly and Multi‐Omics Data Reveal Terrestrial Adaptation and Mucus Biosynthesis in Tropical Leatherleaf Slug (Laevicaulis alte)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A gap‐free genome assembly and multi‐omics comparison of the terrestrial slug Laevichaulis alte with an aquatic relative reveal that expansion of the VEGF family orchestrates mucus production, lipid metabolism, and immune defense—highlighting key molecular innovations for conquering life on land.

Exploring the Roles of Tuna‐Associated Acinetobacter sp. YFT067: Implications for Host Health and Metabolism

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This study firstly isolated a tuna‐derived gut probiotic Acinetobacter seifertii YFT067. Dietary administration of YFT067 played significant roles in promoting growth performance, SCFAs production, lipid absorption, and metabolism of the host, indicating YFT067 as a promising probiotic candidate for enhancing tuna aquaculture productivity through ...

Homo‐/Heterodimeric Substrates Bias the Type and Multiplicity of Hydroxamic Acid Chelators Assembled by a NIS Synthetase DesD

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Chemoenzymatic reactions using the siderophore synthetase DesD from Salinispora tropica and hydroxamic acid substrates (native, non‐native) with different multiplicities (monomer, dimer) and components (homo‐/heterodimer) followed different reaction trajectories, which biased the architectures of the chelator major products and indicated DesD contains ...

Evolution of rhizobial siderophore utilization via accessory xeno-siderophore receptors and flexible intake machinery for self-produced siderophores. [PDF]

ISME J
Abstract Bradyrhizobium and Sinorhizobium are dominant soybean microsymbionts in acidic/neutral and alkaline soils, respectively. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this pH-dependent adaptation remain elusive. In this study, phylogenomic analysis of 286 Bradyrhizobium and 322 Sinorhizobium genomes revealed that ...

Effect of bio‐fertilization and edapho‐climatic conditions on chickpea nodulation, grain yields, and seed protein in a Mediterranean context: a meta‐analysis approach

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...

Dihydroxybenzolyserine-a siderophore for E. coli [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1990
Dihydroxybenzoylserine, the breakdown product of enterochelin, was able to stimulate growth of Escherichia coli under iron limiting conditions by acting as a siderophore. The dihydroxybenzoylserine-iron complex was taken up via the outer membrane receptor proteins Fiu, FepA and to a minor extent via Cir.

Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation. Yet iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient disorder across all age groups, affecting nearly one quarter of the global population. Iron deficiency triggers nutritional immunity, a host defense mechanism that withholds and redistributes iron, contributing

Simultaneous modification of Thermotoga maritima encapsulin subunits to produce multivalent nanoparticle vaccines for non‐typhoidal Salmonella enterica

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study investigates the modularity of encapsulin—a protein nanoparticle—by simultaneously inserting up to four distinct Salmonella epitopes within the encapsulin subunit. The encapsulin variants were transiently expressed in plants where they assembled into nanoparticles; however, their accumulation and stability varied depending on the ...
