Full-Length 16S and 18S rRNA Long-Read Sequencing Reveals Gut Microbiome Diversity in the European Brown Hare (Lepus europaeus). [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
Full‐length 16S and 18S rRNA Oxford Nanopore sequencing of large intestine contents from 30 healthy European brown hares revealed broad gut microbiome diversity. An 80% identity threshold detected substantially greater taxonomic richness than 95%, emphasizing the value of long‐read sequencing in wildlife microbiome research. ABSTRACT The European brown

Bacterial symbionts of the precious coral Corallium rubrum are differentially distributed across colony-specific compartments and differ among colormorphs. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
The distribution and functions of the symbiotic microbes of the precious coral Corallium rubrum are unknown. We optimised coral dissection protocols by using RNAlater, and employed 16S rRNA metabarcoding to characterise the microbiota in different compartments (polyps, coenenchyme, skeleton) and in three colormorphs (red, pink, white).

Chemotaxis in Spirochaeta aurantia [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1977
Cell of Spirochaeta aurantia M1 suspended in isotropic buffer solution swam in nearly straight lines and appeared to spin around their longitudinal axis. Occasionally, cells stopped and flexed, and then resumed translational motility, usually in a different direction. The average cell velocity was 26 micron/s.

Membrane-forming phospholipids allosterically modulate native-state prolyl isomerization in a CNG channel. [PDF]

Protein Sci
Abstract Ion channel activity is intricately linked to the surrounding lipid environment, yet the molecular effects of lipid‐mediated regulation remain largely understudied. Here, we show that membrane‐forming phospholipids, which are known to modulate the activity of the cyclic nucleotide‐gated channel SthK from Spirochaeta thermophila, exhibit ...

Chemotaxis mutants of Spirochaeta aurantia [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1989
Five Spirochaeta aurantia chemotaxis mutants were isolated. One mutant (the che-101 mutant) never reversed, one (the che-200 mutant) flexed predominantly, two (the che-300 and che-400-1 mutants) exhibited elevated reversal frequencies, and one (the che-400 mutant) exhibited chemotactically unstimulated behavior similar to that of the wild-type strain ...

Borreliae Part 1: Borrelia Lyme Group and Echidna-Reptile Group

Biology, 2021
Borreliae are divided into three groups, namely the Lyme group (LG), the Echidna-Reptile group (REPG) and the Relapsing Fever group (RFG). Currently, only Borrelia of the Lyme and RF groups (not all) cause infection in humans.

Lyme Disease and New Molecular Biological Detection Methods [PDF]

Novelty in Clinical Medicine, 2023
Molecular biology plays an important role in understanding the structures, functions and internal controls within each cell. All this can be used to diagnose the diseases, effectively target new medicines and better understand cellular physiology.

Há 100 anos, a descoberta do Treponema pallidum A hundred years ago, the discovery of Treponema pallidum

Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2005
A descoberta do Treponema pallidum por Schaudinn & Hoffmann em 3 de março de 1905 foi influenciada pela comunicação de Siegel, sobre a descoberta do agente etiológico da sífilis.

A Phylogenomic and Molecular Signature Based Approach for Characterization of the Phylum Spirochaetes and its Major Clades: Proposal for a Taxonomic Revision of the Phylum

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013
The Spirochaetes species cause many important diseases including syphilis and Lyme disease. Except for their containing a distinctive endoflagella, no other molecular or biochemical characteristics are presently known that are specific for either all ...
