Unique aliphatic amidase from a psychrotrophic and haloalkaliphilic nesterenkonia isolate
(American Society for Microbiology, 2011)
Nesterenkonia strain AN1 was isolated from a screening program for nitrile- and amide-hydrolyzing microorganisms in Antarctic desert soil samples. Strain AN1 showed significant 16S rRNA sequence identity to known members ...
Microbiome enrichment from contaminated marine sediments unveils novel bacterial strains for petroleum hydrocarbon and heavy metal bioremediation
(Elsevier, 2023)
Petroleum hydrocarbons and heavy metals are some of the most widespread contaminants affecting marine
ecosystems, urgently needing effective and sustainable remediation solutions. Microbial-based bioremediation is
gaining ...
Whole-genome sequencing of African swine fever virus from wild boars in the Kaliningrad region reveals unique and distinguishing genomic mutations
(Frontiers Media, 2023)
Since the first report of outbreaks of African swine fever (ASF)
in Georgia in 2007, the disease has expanded into Europe, Russia, and Asia,
spreading rapidly via contact with infected animals including domestic pigs
and ...
Increasing extracellular cellulase activity of the recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae by engineering cell wall-related proteins for improved consolidated processing of carbon neutral lignocellulosic biomass
(Elsevier, 2022)
Sustainable bioproduction using carbon neutral feedstocks, especially lignocellulosic biomass, has attracted
increasing attention due to concern over climate change and carbon reduction. Consolidated bioprocessing (CBP)
of ...
Analysis of the differentially expressed proteins and metabolic pathways of honeybush (cyclopia subternata) in response to water deficit stress
(MDPI, 2023)
Honeybush (Cyclopia spp.) is a rich source of antioxidant properties and phenolic compounds. Water availability plays a crucial role in plant metabolic processes, and it contributes to overall quality. Thus, this study ...
Sustainable agriculture through the enhancement of microbial biocontrol agents: Current challenges and new perspectives
(MDPI, 2023)
The future of pesticide usage in agriculture is uncertain due to its unsustainability, adverse
environmental impacts, and its association in enhanced phytopathogen resistance. Hence, this
situation urges the development ...
Impact of metagenomic DNA extraction procedures on the identifiable endophytic bacterial diversity in Sorghum bicolor (L. Moench)
(Elsevier, 2015)
Culture-independent studies rely on the quantity and quality of the extracted environmental metagenomic DNA
(mDNA). To fully access the plant tissue microbiome, the extracted plant mDNA should allow optimal PCR
applications ...
Identification of superior cellulase secretion phenotypes in haploids derived from natural Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolates
(Oxford University Press, 2019)
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is considered an important host for consolidated bioprocessing and the production of
high titres of recombinant cellulases is required for efficient hydrolysis of lignocellulosic substrates ...
