ABSTRACT The C4-dicarboxylates (C4-DC) l-aspartate and l-malate have been identified
as playing an important role in the colonization of mammalian intestine by enteric bacteria …

Bacteria have evolved complex sensing and signaling systems to react to their changing
environments, most of which are present in all domains of life. Canonical bacterial sensing …

Integrons are genetic elements that increase the evolvability of bacteria by capturing new
genes and stockpiling them in arrays. Sedentary chromosomal integrons (SCIs) can be …

Escherichia coli uses the C4‐dicarboxylate transporter DcuA for L‐aspartate/fumarate
antiport, which results in the exploitation of L‐aspartate for fumarate respiration under …

C4‐dicarboxylates, such as fumarate, l‐malate and l‐aspartate represent substrates for
anaerobic growth of Escherichia coli by fumarate respiration. Here, we determined whether …

As an important semi-essential amino acid, l-arginine (l-Arg) has important application
prospects in medicine and health care. However, it remains a challenge to efficiently …

Abstract Background Adenylate cyclases (ACs) generate the second messenger cyclic AMP
(cAMP), which is found in all domains of life and is involved in the regulation of various cell …

CyuA of Escherichia coli is an inducible desulfidase that degrades cysteine to pyruvate,
ammonium, and hydrogen sulfide. Workers have conjectured that its role may be to defend …

Rapid detection of viable microbes remains a challenge in fields such as microbial food
safety. We here present the application of deep learning algorithms to the rapid detection of …

D-Pantoic acid is an essential precursor for the synthesis of vitamin B5. However, the
microbial synthesis of D-pantoic acid suffers from a low yield. Herein, to improve D-pantoic …
