Anthrax Toxins in Context of Bacillus anthracis Spores and Spore Germination
Toxins, 2015 The interaction of anthrax toxin or toxin components with B. anthracis spores has been demonstrated. Germinating spores can produce significant amounts of toxin components very soon after the initiation of germination.

Bacterial Geosmin Biosynthesis is Compartmentalized Inside a Two‐Component Protein Shell
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study reports the discovery that geosmin biosynthesis is compartmentalized inside a two‐component protein shell in many bacteria. Sequestration of geosmin synthase inside a Family 2B encapsulin nanocompartment improves geosmin yield and increases enzyme stability as compared to the free enzyme.

Revisiting bacterial spore germination in the presence of peptidoglycan fragments
Journal of BacteriologyBacterial spores of Bacillus species are metabolically inert cell types formed in response to nutrient starvation. Spores must undergo the process of germination to resume vegetative growth.

Living Electronics: Microbial Metabolism as Batteries, Resistors, and Capacitors
Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.Three microorganisms are assigned the three elementary roles of a circuit on one sheet of paper. Dormant Bacillus subtilis spores germinate to switch the power source on; a photosynthetic Synechocystis biofilm sets resistance by the color and intensity of light; and a respiring Shewanella oneidensis biofilm stores charge. Together they form a printable

Electron micrographs of spores of some British gasteromycetes
, 1950 Spores of some British Gasteromycetes have been examined with the electron microscope. The increased resolving power and great depth of focus enable details of the surface ornamentation to be studied, but the low penetrating power of the 50 kV. electrons

Recurrent Neurodevelopmental Disorder Associated With a Dominant‐Negative TOP2B H63Y Variant
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We describe a 7 year‐old boy with severe neurodevelopmental disorder, medically‐refractory epileptic encephalopathy, hyperkinetic movement disorder, hypotonia, cerebral and cerebellar atrophy and hypomyelination who was found to have a heterozygous de novo TOP2B NM_001330700.2:c.187C>T, p.(His63Tyr) variant.
