Principles for Rigorous Design and Application of Synthetic Microbial Communities

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SynComs are artificially designed to enable inter‐species metabolic interactions, metabolic division of labor, and ecological interactions that can elicit phenotypes like colonization stability and environmental adaptation. This systematic review explores the processes used to construct SynComs, the assessment of the mechanisms of metabolic interaction

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

, 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

Siderophore production in Botryosphaeriaceae fungi associated with grapevine trunk diseases

The Microbe
Fungi from the Botryosphaeriaceae are recognized as causal agents of dieback diseases in a variety of economically important woody plants, including grapevine. Some species produce secondary metabolites that may function as virulent factors.

A Glucose‐Responsive Intelligent Antibacterial and Oxygen‐Producing Hydrogel Promotes the Healing of Diabetic Wounds by Regulating Cellular Heterogeneity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We have developed a glucose‐triggered on‐demand drug delivery CF‐CPGaMPN hydrogel based on borate ester bonds. It inactivates microbes, releases oxygen, and enables on‐demand drug release in high‐glucose environments to promote healing of diabetic wounds. Single‐cell sequencing reveals that the CF‐CPGaMPN hydrogel significantly alleviates dysfunctional

Effect of Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria on Salicornia ramosissima Seed Germination under Salinity, CO2 and Temperature Stress [PDF]

, 2019
In a scenario of climate change and growing population, halophyte root microbiota interactions may be a sustainable solution to improve alternative crop production while combating abiotic stress.

Discovery of an Adaptive Neuroimmune Response Driving Itch and Fast Tick Removal with Implications for Preventing Pathogen Transmission

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Doehl et al. discovered an adaptive neuroimmune mechanism that induces itch in tick‐exposed guinea pigs, enabling rapid tick removal. This itch‐induced tick removal (IITR) is mediated by an adaptive cellular immune response and is independent of IgG, IgE, or TRPV1.

Distribution and Cycling of Siderophores in the Eastern North and Tropical Pacific Oceans

Geophysical Research Letters
Most iron (Fe) dissolved in seawater is complexed to organic ligands of unknown composition. Here we investigate the distribution of siderophores, small organic compounds synthesized by microbes to bind environmental Fe and facilitate its transport into ...

Phosphorus Nutrition and Growth of Cotton Plants Inoculated With Growth-Promoting Bacteria Under Low Phosphate Availability

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2021
The low availability of phosphorus (P) in the soil drastically limits the world productivity of crops such as cotton. In order to contribute sustainably to the solution of this problem, the current study aimed to evaluate the capacity of phosphate ...

CsdA‐LaeB Regulatory Hub Contributes to Aspergillus fumigatus Virulence via Fumiquinazoline C Biosynthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies a conserved CsdA‐LaeB hub in Aspergillus fumigatus that regulates secondary metabolite fumiquinazoline C (FqC). Disrupting this hub enhances FqC production and virulence, shedding new light on the post‐transcriptional regulatory logic linking secondary metabolism to pathogenicity and offering alternative strategies for diagnostic ...
