Chlorine disinfection to drinking water plays an important role in preventing and controlling waterborne disease outbreaks globally. Nevertheless, little is known about why it enriches the antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in bacteria after chlorination.

Bacterial Inactivation of Transforming Deoxyribonucleate [PDF]
Competent and noncompetent bacteria are able to bind deoxyribonucleate (DNA). The consequence of this binding is different for the two types of bacteria. Competent bacteria are able to utilize the DNA for transformation. DNA exposed to noncompetent bacteria loses its biological activity with a coincident reduction in the double-stranded molecular ...

A DNase encoded by integrated element CJIE1 inhibits natural transformation of Campylobacter jejuni [PDF]
The species Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni) is considered naturally competent for DNA uptake and displays strong genetic diversity. Nevertheless, non-naturally transformable strains and several relatively stable clonal lineages exist.

The bacterial transformation of abietic acid [PDF]
An Alcaligenes species, which was isolated from soil, can utilize abietic acid as its sole carbon source. During growth, the bacterium transforms abietic acid into 5α-hydroxyabietic acid (I, R=OH), a product considered to be 7β-hydroxy-13-isopropyl-8ξ-podocarp-13-en-15-oic acid (II, R=H) and a compound, C20H28O3, which is believed to be an epoxy-γ ...

Bacterial community and arsenic functional genes diversity in arsenic contaminated soils from different geographic locations. [PDF]
To understand how soil microbial communities and arsenic (As) functional genes respond to soil arsenic (As) contamination, five soils contaminated with As at different levels were collected from diverse geographic locations, incubated for 54 days under ...

Bacterial Transformation of Aromatic Monomers in Softwood Black Liquor
The valorization of lignin, a major component of plant-derived biomass, is essential to sustainable biorefining. We identified the major monoaromatic compounds present in black liquor, a lignin-rich stream generated in the kraft pulping process, and ...
