Rubisco folding and oligomeric assembly: Detailed analysis of an assembly intermediate [PDF]
To become biologically active, a protein must fold into a distinct three-dimensional structure. Many non-native proteins require molecular chaperones to support folding and assembly.

Relationship of Synechococcus Abundance to Seasonal Ocean Temperature Ranges
The abundance of Synechococcus in the East China Sea (ECS) was tracked during two sets of cruises in 1997 - 1998 and 2004. These data were combined with information from the literature to examine the hypothesis wherein variations in Synechococcus ...

ABSTRACT The single crossover occurring via homologous recombination is a common phenomenon existing among microbes like Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Vibrio natriegens, Gluconobacter oxydans and most cyanobacteria species, threatening the stability of engineered strains and challenging iterative genetic engineering. Among them, we take the fast‐

Factors affecting antimicrobial activity of Synechococcus leopoliensis
An antimicrobial agent is produced by the cyanobacterium Synechococcus leopoliensis which was found to be active against the Gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus. The effects of temperature, pH, incubation period, some media and different nitrogen and carbon sources on both growth and antimicrobial activity were investigated.

Atrazine-Induced Chlorosis in Synechococcus elongatus Cells [PDF]
The effects of a widely used herbicide, atrazine, on the freshwater cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus were studied. The cyanobacteria were exposed to varying concentrations of atrazine (0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.25, and 0.75 microM) for 96 h. Different parameters such as growth, autofluorescence of chlorophyll a, pigment content, volume, and internal ...

Consoli et al. mapped eight Chl f‐binding sites in far‐red‐light‐acclimated photosystem I (FR PSI). Structural and spectroscopic evidence supports the involvement of Chl f at the A−1B site in primary charge separation and indicates that its protein microenvironment modulates redox properties.

Biofilm Source Shapes the Tolerance to Short‐Term Ciprofloxacin Exposure
Biofilms sourced downstream of a wastewater treatment plant showed greater tolerance to ciprofloxacin than upstream‐sourced communities. The results suggest that environmental history and community composition influence freshwater biofilm responses to antibiotic stress.

Our study shows that microbial community diversity in Patagonian fjords varies with glacial influence and salinity, with a widespread bacterial core but a patchier eukaryotic core. Distinct co‐occurrence networks and marked short‐term community shifts occur in water‑ versus land‐terminating glacier fjords, underscoring meltwater influence in this ...

Phototaxis in a wild isolate of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus [PDF]
Many cyanobacteria, which use light as an energy source via photosynthesis, have evolved the ability to guide their movement toward or away from a light source. This process, termed “phototaxis,” enables organisms to localize in optimal light environments for improved growth and fitness.

Microbial Community Restructuring Under Zinc Oxide Nanoparticle Stress in Membrane Bioreactors
Long‐term ZnO nanoparticle exposure induced extracellular stress responses and restructured microbial communities, with reduced taxonomic and phylogenetic richness and loss of key nitrogen‐transforming taxa. These ecological changes were accompanied by impaired nitrification, demonstrating that prolonged ZnO exposure can compromise the functional ...
