Biomethanation is a promising solution to convert H2 (produced from surplus electricity) and CO2 to CH4 by using hydrogenotrophic methanogens. In ex situ biomethanation with mixed cultures, homoacetogens and methanogens compete for H2/CO2. We enriche...
Despite displaying broad tropism in vivo, human cytomegalovirus (CMV) contained in bodily fluids replicates inefficiently in most cultured cell types except fibroblasts. As propagation in fibroblasts leads to the accumulation of genomic changes, a nu...
Streptomyces spp. are prolific sources of valuable natural products (NPs) that are of great interest in pharmaceutical industries such as antibiotics, anticancer chemotherapeutics, immunosuppressants, etc. Approximately two-thirds of all known antibi...
Throughout fermentation, yeast faces continuously changing medium conditions and reacts by adapting its metabolism. The adaptation is a critical process and is dependent on the accurate functioning of the cell. A stable membrane potential, which is,...
The bacterivorous nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is an important model species for understanding genetic variation of complex traits. So far, most studies involve axenic laboratory settings using Escherichia coli as the sole bacterial species. Over...
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is one of the most important diseases of wheat, causing yield losses and mycotoxin contamination of harvested grain. A complex of different toxigenic Fusarium species is responsible for FHB and the composition and predomina...
Incidental prophylactic surgeries are performed in certain situations. Incidental prophylactic appendectomies were common practice within opened bariatric surgeries. The gut microbiota has emerged as an important actor within the homeostasis of the h...
The genus Cyclobacterium belongs to the phylum Bacteroidetes and includes eight species. Our study, based on the genomic parameters in silico DNA–DNA hybridization (GGDC), average nucleotide identity (OrthoANI), and average amino acid identity...
Tripeptide glutathione, which plays important roles in many cellular mechanisms, is also a biotechnology-oriented molecule with applications in medicine, food and cosmetic. Here, the engineering of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica for the production of...
Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic bacterial pathogen associated with hospital-acquired infections, including pneumonia, meningitis, bacteremia, urinary tract infection, and wound infections. Recognition of host cell surface carbohydrates pl...
