Many bacteria possess all the machineries required to grow on fatty acids (FA) as a unique
source of carbon and energy. FA degradation proceeds through the β-oxidation cycle that …

Two-component signal transduction systems (TCSs) are widespread types of protein
machinery, typically consisting of a histidine kinase membrane sensor and a cytoplasmic …

Bacterial two-component systems (TCS) are versatile signaling mechanisms that govern
cellular responses to diverse environmental cues. These systems rely on phosphoryl-group …

Background Engineering bacterial strains to redirect the metabolism towards the production
of a specific product has enabled the development of industrial biotechnology. However …

Bacterial small RNAs (sRNAs) regulate gene expression by base-pairing with their target
mRNAs. In Escherichia coli and many other bacteria, this process is dependent on the RNA …

Photocatalytic materials-microbial biohybrid systems pave the way for solar-driven
wastewater nitrogen removal. In this study, interspecies cooperation in photogenerated …

Aerobic composting technology offers an effective solution for addressing antibiotic
residues. Despite advancements in improving composting materials and understanding …

Gram-negative facultative anaerobes often cause bacteremia, a systemic infection
associated with severe clinical outcomes. ArcAB, a two-component regulatory system that …

Enteric pathogens such as Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium experience spatial
and temporal changes to the metabolic landscape throughout infection. Host reactive …

Up to 25% of the E. coli strains isolated from the feces of healthy humans harbor the pks
genomic island encoding the synthesis of colibactin, a genotoxic metabolite. Evidence is …
