Experimental, Genomic, and Structural Evidence Supporting Putative PET‐Hydrolases in Thermophilic Bacteria Isolated From Hot Springs in Cajamarca, Peru

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Integrated microbiological, genomic, and structural analyses of bacteria isolated from a Peruvian geothermal system reveal enzymatic potential for the transformation of polyesters such as PET. This study links experimental evidence with genomic determinants and in silico analyses that support the thermophilic bacteria biodegradation capacity.

Crystal structure of endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanase from Streptomyces avermitilis

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 8, Page 962-971, August 2026.
The crystal structure of S. avermitilis endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanase belonging to GH30 subfamily 5 reveals the first structural framework for endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanase. The β‐1,6‐galactobiose‐bound complex identifies the catalytic subsites and a distal secondary sugar‐binding site, providing insight into β‐1,6‐galactan recognition.Endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanases ...

Advances in Xylooligosaccharides Production From Lignocellulosic Materials and Its Application as Prebiotics

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT With the growing interest in functional foods and their role in promoting health beyond basic nutrition, increasing attention has been directed toward the modulation of gut microbiota as a key determinant of human well‐being. In this context, prebiotics and probiotics have emerged as central bioactive ingredients due to their capacity to ...

Bacterial Synergism in Lignocellulose Biomass Degradation – Complementary Roles of Degraders As Influenced by Complexity of the Carbon Source

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) is an attractive source of carbon for the production of sugars and other chemicals. Due to its inherent complexity and heterogeneity, efficient biodegradation requires the actions of different types of hydrolytic enzymes. In

Integrating indigenous microorganisms and cover crops to improve grapevine nutrition in sustainable vineyards

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Excessive use of agrochemicals and frequent tillage have degraded vineyard soils, threatening their sustainability and grape quality. Cover crops and microbial inoculants are increasingly promoted as nature‐based strategies for vineyard regeneration, yet they are rarely evaluated together.

Drought and Warming‐Induced Drying Suppress Soil Respiration but Amplify Rewetting‐Induced Pulses in a Temperate Pasture

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.
A factorial rainfall × warming field experiment showed that drought and warming suppressed overall soil respiration but amplified rewetting‐induced CO2 pulses via contrasting effects of moisture, temperature, and substrate availability. Their interaction shifted seasonally, from additive (spring) to antagonistic (summer‐autumn) and synergistic (winter),
