Open DOI
Thermostability and pH Differentiation in Geobacillus Hydrolases: A Comparative Perspective
Thermostable enzymes are central to high-temperature industrial processes because they combine catalytic efficiency with structural resilience under demanding conditions. Among thermophilic bacteria, Geobacillus has emerged as a prominen...

Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for resveratrol production using food-grade D-xylose as a carbon source
Resveratrol is a high-value polyphenolic compound widely utilized in nutraceutical, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical applications. However, most microbial production systems rely on glucose as the primary carbon source, which limits flexibil...

Proteome-wide analysis of protein stability in Escherichia coli under acid stress
Knowledge of protein acid sensitivity remains sparse and is largely derived from low-throughput, enzyme-specific assays. We used a scalable framework to map acid stability across the Escherichia coli proteome to assess the acid stability...

Engineering Escherichia coli to produce medium chain oleochemicals from C2 substrates
Many strategies to create a circular bioeconomy have been proposed. To be successful, CO2 must be reduced with renewable energy into chemical building blocks, from which the chemical industry can be supported. Circular strategies include...

The biosynthetic gene cluster landscape of the oral microbiome across health and dental caries
Specialized metabolites encoded by biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) in the oral microbiome remain largely unexplored in the context of oral health and disease. Previous genome-centric surveys have identified hundreds of uncharacterized ...

Field-validated microbial deodorant reduces hazardous gas exposure and improves air quality in rural household toilets
Malodorous emissions from rural sanitation systems pose a direct environmental health concern. This study developed a composite microbial deodorant (CMD) using five bacterial strains isolated from activated sludge, combined in an optimal...

A survey of Burkholderiales secondary metabolites using library-scale stable isotope labeling reveals selective production of methyl-esterified 3-hydroxybutyrate oligomers
Large-scale untargeted bacterial metabolomics studies are often challenging to interpret, particularly for natural product discovery. Complex raw mass spectrometry data contains media components, biotransformation products, workup contam...

Multistrategy metabolic engineering of Talaromyces pinophilus for α-amylase production from lignocellulosic biomass
Filamentous fungi are important hosts for industrial enzyme production. Growing demand for α-amylase has increased reliance on food-derived carbon substrates, necessitating fungal strains that efficiently utilize nongrain biomass. In thi...

Demonstration of an integrated process for manure-based nitrogen recovery using the biopolymer cyanophycin
The trend toward concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) has served to concentrate not only livestock animals but the waste they produce to comparatively smaller areas. The point-source nature of this waste is an opportunity for t...

Evaluating the efficacy of disinfecting products against Bacillus subtilis spore using an optimized method
Twenty disinfectant products were evaluated for sporicidal activity using an optimized method. Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6051 was sporulated in Difco sporulation medium for 3 days. The spores were purified using density centrifugation and h...
