Structure and Diversity of Soil Bacterial Communities in Offshore Islands [PDF]
AbstractThe effects of biogeographical separation and parent material differences in soil bacterial structure and diversity in offshore islands remain poorly understood. In the current study, we used next-generation sequencing to characterize the differences in soil bacterial communities in five offshore subtropical granite islands (Matsu Islets, MI ...

DIVERSITY OF CULTURABLE BACTERIAL COMMUNITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE CORAL Galaxea fascicularis FROM UJUNG KULON, INDONESIA [PDF]
Coral reefs are the most diverse marine ecosystems; however, little is known about their microbialdiversity in these ecosystems. The present study is aimed at investigating the general insights into the diversity of the bacterial community associated ...

In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

Maize Endophytic Bacterial Diversity as Affected by Soil Cultivation History [PDF]
The bacterial endophytic communities residing within roots of maize (Zea mays L.) plants cultivated by a sustainable management in soils from the Quechua maize belt (Peruvian Andes) were examined using tags pyrosequencing spanning the V4 and V5 hypervariable regions of the 16S rRNA.

Effects of Urban–Rural Environmental Gradient on Soil Microbial Community in Rapidly Urbanizing Area
Rapid urbanization considerably changes the urban–rural landscape, soil environment, and soil ecosystem functions. Within terrestrial ecosystems, microorganisms play key roles in soil ecosystem functions and are highly vulnerable to the effects of rapid ...

A minimal cellulosome‐like system in Cellulosilyticum lentocellum
Cellulose‐degrading bacteria typically use cellulosomes, large multi‐enzyme complexes on a scaffold protein. In Cellulosilyticum lentocellum, we characterise a far smaller arrangement, a single scaffold bound to one cellulase through a single cohesin‐dockerin interaction.

Chronobiology of Cancer: How Aging Fuels Oncogenesis at the Molecular Level
This graphical abstract illustrates the key biological pathways linking aging with cancer development and progression. In the upper left, cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation, toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes DNA damage and genomic instability, whereas age‐related decline in repair mechanisms, such as ATM/ATR, BER, and NER ...

Influence of soil properties on archaeal diversity and distribution in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica [PDF]
Archaea are the least understood members of the microbial community in Antarctic mineral soils. Although their occurrence in Antarctic coastal soils has been previously documented, little is known about their distribution in soils across the McMurdo Dry ...
