A novel sustainable role of compost as a universal protective substitute for fish, chicken, pig, and cattle, and its estimation by structural equation modeling [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Natural decomposition of organic matter is essential in food systems, and compost is used worldwide as an organic fermented fertilizer. However, as a feature of the ecosystem, its effects on the animals are poorly understood. Here we show that oral administration of compost and/or its derived thermophilic Bacillaceae, i.e., Caldibacillus hisashii and ...

Harnessing Fruit and Vegetable Waste for Biofuel Production: Advances and Scope for Future Development

open access: yeseFood, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2025.
Waste utilization from fruit and vegetable waste. ABSTRACT Extreme exploitation of petroleum fuels has raised concerns around global warming due to increased greenhouse gas emissions, which by the year 2040 are expected to rise by around 43 billion metric tons.

The Process and Pathogen Behavior in Composting: A Review [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
Composting is defined as the biological decomposition and stabilization of organic substrates under aerobic conditions to allow the development of thermophilic temperatures. This thermophilic temperature is a result of biologically produced heat. Composting produces the final product which is sufficiently stable for storage and application to land ...

Glutamine Hydrolysis by Imidazole Glycerol Phosphate Synthase Displays Temperature Dependent Allosteric Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2018
The enzyme imidazole glycerol phosphate synthase (IGPS) is a model for studies of long-range allosteric regulation in enzymes. Binding of the allosteric effector ligand N'-[5'-phosphoribulosyl)formimino]-5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-ribonucleotide ...

Warming is Associated With More Encoded Antimicrobial Resistance Genes and Transcriptions Within Five Drug Classes in Soil Bacteria: A Case Study and Synthesis

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2025.
We found a positive relationship between reported optimal temperature and the number of encoded AMR genes in published soil bacterial genomes. We also observed increased AMR transcription in soil transcriptomes undergoing experimental warming and drying in a natural ecosystem. Warming effects varied by drug class. ABSTRACT The effect of warming on anti‐

Unveiling Microbial Dynamics: How Forest Aging Shapes the Microbial Communities of Pinus massoniana

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2025.
Both the phyllosphere and root of Pinus massoniana host diverse microbes. Pinus massoniana forest aging induces dynamic changes in its microbiomes. The influence of forest aging on the phyllosphere microbiome overwhelms that of the root. ABSTRACT Plants host diverse microbial communities essential for nutrient acquisition, growth, and responses to ...

Quorum sensing inhibitory compounds from extremophilic microorganisms isolated from a hypersaline cyanobacterial mat [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
In this study extremely halophilic and moderately thermophilic microorganisms from a hypersaline microbial mat were screened for their ability to produce antibacterial, antidiatom, antialgal and quorum sensing (QS) inhibitory compounds. Five bacterial strains belonging to the genera Marinobacter and Halomonas and one archaeal strain belonging to the ...

Quantum Proteomics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
We put forward the idea of establishing a novel interdisciplinary field of research at the interface between quantum mechanics and proteomics. The new field, called quantum proteomics, is defined as the large-scale study of the electronic structure of the proteins that define an organism's proteome. The electronic structure of proteins is unveiled with

Influence of Growth Phase, pH, and Temperature on the Abundance and Composition of Tetraether Lipids in the Thermoacidophile Picrophilus torridus

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The abundance and composition of glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraether (GDGT) and glycerol tribiphytanyl glycerol tetraether (GTGT) lipids were determined as a function of growth phase as a proxy for nutrient availability, the pH of growth medium ...
