Bacterial growth substrates influence a variety of biological functions, including the biosynthesis and regulation of lipid intermediates. The extent of this rewiring is not well understood nor has it been considered in the context of virally-infected cells. Here, we use a one-host-two-temperate ...
AIM: Low-molecular-weight organic substances (LMWOSs) are at the nexus between micro-organisms, plant roots, detritus and the soil mineral matrix. The nominal oxidation state of carbon (NOSC) has been suggested as a potential parameter for modelling microbial uptake rates of LMWO...
The communities of marine bacteria that assemble around living microphytoplankton are predictably dominated by three taxonomic groups, each of which specializes in different components of the available metabolite pool: Rhodobacterales transport small and polar metabolites, Flavobacteriia use carb...
Background: The use of sulfonamides (SAs) caused residual pollution in the environment. Bacteria play an important role in the degradation of sulfonamide antibiotics, and microbial consortium offers advantages over single bacterium. However, the complex degradation process and interaction mechani...
