Rules Governing General Assembly of Microbial Communities in Engineered Biotreatment Processes
EngineeringThe principles of microbial community assembly in engineered ecosystems (particularly biotreatment processes) exposed to high-intensity environmental disturbances remain poorly understood.

Microbial Community Cohesion Mediates Community Turnover in Unperturbed Aquifers
mSystems, 2018 Microbial ecological processes are frequently studied in the presence of perturbations rather than in undisturbed environments, despite the relatively stable conditions dominating many microbial habitats.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Analysis of additive and parametric noise effects on Morris - Lecar neuron model [PDF]
Компьютерные исследования и моделирование, 2017 This paper is devoted to the analysis of the effect of additive and parametric noise on the processes occurring in the nerve cell. This study is carried out on the example of the well-known Morris - Lecar model described by the two-dimensional system of ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

mSystemsCommunity assembly processes are complex and understanding them represents a challenge in microbial ecology. Here, we used Lascaux Cave as a stable, confined environment to quantify the importance of stochastic vs deterministic processes during microbial

On Stochastic Equations with Measurable Coefficients Driven by Symmetric Stable Processes [PDF]
International Journal of Stochastic Analysis, 2012 We consider a one-dimensional stochastic equation , , with respect to a symmetric stable process of index . It is shown that solving this equation is equivalent to solving of a 2-dimensional stochastic equation with respect to the semimartingale and corresponding matrix .

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Noise-induced transitions and shifts in a climate–vegetation feedback model [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Motivated by the extremely important role of the Earth’s vegetation dynamics in climate changes, we study the stochastic variability of a simple climate–vegetation system.

Small RNA pathways in mammalian oocytes
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Three distinct small RNA pathways operate in mammalian oocytes: RNAi interference (RNAi), the microRNA (miRNA) pathway, and the PIWI‐associated RNA (piRNA) pathway. These pathways use small RNAs to guide sequence‐specific repression and contribute to oocyte biology by targeting genes and mobile elements or appear insignificant since different ...
