Identification of Molecular Pathways Underlying Mn(II) Oxidation in Pseudomonas resinovorans

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 10, October 2026.
Transposon mutagenesis in biofilter‐associated Pseudomonas resinovorans MOB‐513 identifies a c‐di‐GMP‐dependent regulatory network involving type IV pili, two‐component systems, and diguanylate cyclases that controls Mn(II) oxidation and biofilm formation, providing new insight into microbial manganese cycling and biofilter performance.

Typ IV Pili von Meningokokken interagieren mit Lactobacillus crispatus.

, 2023
Ziel dieses Projektes war es, die Interaktion zwischen Meningokokken-Typ-IV-Pili und verschiedenen Laktobazillenstämmen zu untersuchen. Neisseria meningitidis, ein obligates, humanes Pathogen, lebt oft asymptomatisch im menschlichen Nasen-Rachen-Raum ...

Microbially‐Induced Corrosion of Cobalt by Pseudomonas chlororaphis subspecies aureofaciens Is Driven by the Complex Interplay Between Abiotic and Biotic Processes That Control Cobalt Solubility

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 10, October 2026.
Cobalt undergoes microbially‐induced corrosion by the bacterium Pseudomonas chlororaphis subspecies aureofaciens. The reaction is initiated by oxygen or redox‐active metabolites that generate cobalt ions that interact with the cell. Corrosion is subsequently driven by unidentified cell‐derived ligands that keep cobalt in solution and inhibit the ...

Metabolic Design Patterns for a Regenerative Architecture

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 10, October 2026.
This simplified diagram illustrates the three core Metabolic Design Patterns: Toilet as Hearth, Kitchen Garden, and Greywater Wetland, which form the foundation of a regenerative domestic infrastructure. Each pattern integrates bioelectrical systems (BES) and bioreactors into recognisable domestic programmes, transforming waste streams into resources ...

Electroactive Microbiomes: Electron Transfer Mechanisms and Environmental Biotechnology Applications

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Electroactive microbiomes couple direct, mediated, conductive, and interspecies electron transfer with biofilm organisation to drive wastewater treatment, bioremediation, resource recovery, carbon conversion, and biosensing. Their performance depends on balancing electron transfer, mass transport, community structure, and electrode–biofilm interactions

Motility and adhesion through type IV pili in Gram-positive bacteria [PDF]

, 2016
Type IV pili are hair-like bacterial surface appendages that play a role in diverse processes such as cellular adhesion, colonization, twitching motility, biofilm formation, and horizontal gene transfer.

Iron, Biofilm, and Colorectal Cancer: Mechanistic Insights Into Enterococcus faecalis Pathogenesis

APMIS, Volume 134, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Enterococcus faecalis is a commensal of the human gastrointestinal microbiota that has emerged as a successful opportunistic pathogen associated with persistent infections, antimicrobial resistance, and biofilm formation. Increasing evidence indicates that iron availability functions as a master environmental signal coordinating E.

Water, water, every where—the advent of hydrated pili structure

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 19, Page 5696-5699, October 2026.
Protein structure is defined by its surrounding water. Naturally, this is also true for the gigantic protein filaments that pathogenic bacteria use to attach to and colonize their host cells. Structures of these filaments for which water can be identified with high confidence have stayed elusive for the longest time.
