Trehalose improves cold tolerance of Pediococcus pentosaceus OL77 and enhances low-temperature oat silage fermentation [0.03%]
Jikuan Chai,Chaosheng Liao,Zeliang Ju et al.
Jikuan Chai et al.
Low temperature remains a major bottleneck in silage fermentation, especially in cold regions and high-altitude areas. This study investigated the regulatory role of compatible solutes in enhancing the cold adaptation of Pediococcus pentosa...
Associations of antimicrobial and multidrug resistance in Escherichia coli from the fecal flora and housing environment of calves on dairy farms with atmospheric variables [0.03%]
Véronique Bernier Gosselin,Martin Wegmann,Romane Zufferey et al.
Véronique Bernier Gosselin et al.
The objective of this study was to describe the non-linear relationships between antimicrobial resistance to at least one tested antimicrobial (AMR) or multidrug resistance (MDR; resistance to at least three antimicrobial drug classes) of E...
Tubulin polyglutamylases TTLL4C and TTLL6B are essential for maintaining cytoskeletal integrity in Trypanosoma brucei [0.03%]
Lucas Brehm,Moritz Röder,Stephanie Lamer et al.
Lucas Brehm et al.
Tubulin polyglutamylation is a post-translational modification that modulates microtubule interactions with associated proteins and motor proteins, thereby contributing to the regulation of microtubule dynamics. Although its roles are well ...

Allison T Scott et al.
Pathogenic Rickettsia species are obligate intracellular bacteria that must reside in a mammalian host or arthropod vector cell to survive. Although these bacteria transition between different intracellular environments during infection, th...

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a gram-positive bacterium, colonizer of the human nasopharynx capable of causing severe invasive disease. Colonization of the nasopharynx is a prerequisite for the development of invasive disease and depends upon...
Wavyleaf basketgrass (Oplismenus undulatifolius) invasion is associated with changes in soil microbial communities [0.03%]
Michael R Fulcher,Anthony Tritz,Vanessa Beauchamp et al.
Michael R Fulcher et al.
Introduced invasive plants can alter the composition of resident soil microbial communities, which may disrupt ecosystem function and facilitate continued invasion success. Wavyleaf basketgrass (Oplismenus undulatifolius) is a high-risk, no...

Owen A Collars et al.
During infection, pathogenic mycobacteria reside within phagosomes of varying acidity based on the macrophage activation state. The ESX-1 secretion system (early secreted antigen 6 kilodaltons [ESAT-6] system 1) delivers protein virulence f...
Small is big: growing impact of small molecule mass spectrometry in infectious disease drug development [0.03%]
Laura-Isobel McCall
Laura-Isobel McCall
Small molecule analysis by mass spectrometry (MS) in drug discovery and development has historically focused on confirmation of synthesis products and on drug quantification in pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies. However, advances ...
Enhancing immune protection in dairy cattle: role of Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 in boosting the efficacy of a Mycoplasma bovis-BoAHV-1 combined vaccine [0.03%]
Sen Zhang,Guoxing Liu,Jianguo Chen et al.
Sen Zhang et al.
Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) ranks among the most prevalent and economically burdensome diseases affecting the global dairy cattle industry, primarily resulting from co-infection with multiple pathogens, including Mycoplasma bovis (M. b...
Diversity and geographical distribution of potential carbon monoxide oxidizers using molybdenum-containing enzymes in the ocean [0.03%]
Yoshinari Imaura,Keigo Yamamoto,Ryoma Kamikawa et al.
Yoshinari Imaura et al.
Carbon monoxide (CO) evolves from photochemical or thermal reactions in the ocean. It is estimated that 90% of oceanic CO is consumed by CO-oxidizing prokaryotes, which convert CO to carbon dioxide using molybdenum-containing CO dehydrogena...
