Antimicrobial stressors, that is, bile or mitomycin C, induce enlarged, nucleic acid‐rich bacterial extracellular vesicles in Vibrio cholerae that facilitate horizontal gene transfer in vitro and during intestinal colonisation. The findings provide a detailed comparison of control versus stress‐induced vesicles, identify bile as a host factor shaping ...

ABSTRACT Vibrio cholerae inhabits phosphorus‐poor aquatic environments and host intestine, where it expresses genes regulated by the PhoB/PhoR two‐component system in response to inorganic phosphate (Pi) limitation. Like other Gram‐negative bacteria, V.

Nonclassical MHC‐I Molecules: Emerging Therapeutic Targets in Next‐Generation Immunotherapy
Immunotherapies dependent on classical MHC‐I molecules face significant challenges, including extreme polymorphism and frequent downregulation in pathological conditions. This review discusses how nonclassical MHC‐I molecules (HLA‐E, HLA‐F, HLA‐G, CD1, MR1) may potentially circumvent these limitations through restricted genetic diversity, stable ...

The Curious Case of CysE: Diversity and Distribution of Serine Acetyltransferases in Bacteria
ABSTRACT Serine acetyltransferase (CysE) is a member of the left‐handed β‐helix family of acetyltransferases that catalyze the rate limiting step in de novo cysteine biosynthesis. There are two isoforms of CysE that differ in length, with the shorter isoform lacking approximately 76 amino acids at the N‐terminus of the protein from the serine ...

This study reveals that diet drives gut microbiota differences in captive waterbirds (bar‐headed goose, ruddy shelduck, black‐necked crane), with protein‐rich diets shaping distinct microbial communities. Artificial lakes enhance microbial diversity compared to enclosures, offering insights for improving captive waterbird health.

First Isolation of Yersinia enterocolitica From a Sea Turtle: A Case Report in Caretta caretta
1. First isolation of Yersinia enterocolitica, a zoonotic bacterium, in a loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta), identifying it as the likely cause of severe colitis, hepatitis, and fatal sepsis. 2. The findings highlight that sea turtles and the marine environment can act as reservoirs for Y. enterocolitica: this poses a “One Health” threat. 3.

Whether, when and for how long pandemic Vibrio cholerae forms long‐term environmental reservoirs remains uncertain. We propose a new framework to evaluate possible mechanisms by which the pathogen might experience reservoir formation versus environmental elimination.

How Salmonella Works Under Osmotic and Desiccation Stresses
ABSTRACT Salmonella remains one of the leading threats in foods with reduced water activity, where it can survive for long periods and cause outbreaks. Its persistence stems from a wide array of adaptive strategies shaped by the selective pressures imposed by low‐moisture foods.

Perspectives for Advancing Biotechnological Succinic Acid Production
Succinic acid is an important molecule for sustainable chemical manufacturing, but its industrial production faces high costs and sustainability challenges, which are linked to feedstocks and excessive acid/base consumption. This opinion explores production routes based on next‐generation feedstocks and low‐pH fermentations to inspire novel cost ...
