Yeast‐Based Biotechnology for Civilian Security
Yeasts constitute robust and versatile eukaryotic platforms for biotechnological applications relevant to civilian security. Both native and genetically engineered yeast systems enable sensitive detection of chemical and biological hazards, effective removal of metals and organic pollutants, and detoxification of mycotoxins.

The synthesis and the investigation of the lanthanide (Ln) and Fe‐binding properties of the putative lanthanophore methylolanthanin (MLL) and the siderophore rhodopetrobactin B (RPB B) are reported. While both chelators bind Lns, they unexpectedly precipitate with Lns under biologically relevant conditions and thereby challenge the proposed classic ...

Unifying microorganisms and macrograzers in intertidal rocky shore ecological networks
Abstract Over the past decades, our understanding of the vital role microbes play in ecosystem processes has greatly expanded. However, we still have limited knowledge about how microbial communities interact with larger organisms. Many existing representations of microbial interactions are based on co‐occurrence patterns, which do not provide clear ...

Mountains are home to steep elevational gradients in environmental factors, biodiversity and ecosystem functionality. Though these gradients are tightly connected, little is known about the relative contribution of environmental and biotic factors in driving elevational changes in ecosystem functionality.

ABSTRACT Legume root nodules host symbiotic rhizobia that are essential for nitrogen fixation but also harbor diverse non‐rhizobial taxa that remain poorly characterized. Field pea (Pisum sativum) cultivars adapted to distinct seasonal growth (spring and winter) offer an opportunity to explore whether host genotype influences nodule‐associated ...

Summary One‐carbon (C1) metabolism, centered on the universal methyl donor S‐adenosyl methionine (SAM), plays critical roles in biosynthesis, redox regulation, and stress responses across plants and microbes. A recently proposed photosynthetic C1 pathway links SAM methyl groups directly to RuBisCO‐mediated CO2 assimilation and integrates with nitrogen ...

A novel engineered strain of Methylorubrum extorquens for methylotrophic production of glycolic acid
The conversion of CO2 into methanol depicts one of the most promising emerging renewable routes for the chemical and biotech industry. Under this regard, native methylotrophs have a large potential for converting methanol into value-added products but ...

Prokaryotic transporter genes for the metals manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), nickel (Ni), tungsten (W), molybdenum (Mo), copper (Cu) and cobalt (Co) revealed distinct seasonal patterns in the Southern Ocean, and the seasonal dynamics of the contribution of prokaryotic groups to trace metal transporters suggested different capabilities to acquire these ...

In this study, we engineered Escherichia coli to function as cellular biosensors capable of detecting a broad range of formaldehyde concentrations. By using natural and promiscuous formaldehyde assimilation enzymes, we created three distinct growth biosensor strains that rely on formaldehyde for cell growth, demonstrating sensitivity from approximately

The microbial communities in a northern ore processing plant were compared in summer and winter. Distinct seasonal communities were identified with higher microbial numbers and specific metabolic capacities, such as heavy metal resistance, sulphate/thiosulphate, molybdate, iron(III) and Zinc transport, nitrate reduction, denitrification, thiosulphate ...
