Interactive Regulation of Formate Dehydrogenase during CO2 Fixation in Gas-Fermenting Bacteria
mBio, 2020 Protein lysine acetylation, a prevalent posttranslational modification, regulates numerous crucial biological processes in cells. Nevertheless, how lysine acetylation interacts with other types of regulation to coordinate metabolism remains largely ...

Discovery of an ene-reductase for initiating flavone and flavonol catabolism in gut bacteria
Nature Communications, 2021 Flavonoids are abundant polyphenols in plants but it is not well understood how their metabolism is initiated by microbes in the human gut. Here, the authors identify and characterise an ene-reductase from the gut bacterium, Flavonifractor plautii ATCC ...

Synthetic microbial consortia with programmable ecological interactions
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Abstract Central to the composition, structure and function of any microbial community is the complex species interaction web. But understanding the overwhelming complexity of ecological interaction webs has been challenging, owing at least partly to the lack of ...

Engineered antimicrobial-derived peptides to manipulate mixed microbial systems
Microbiology SpectrumDue to the complexity of microbial communities and coarseness of currently available manipulation techniques (e.g., transplantation and antibiotic treatment), it is often difficult to fully elucidate the interactions between members that define community
