The researcher will use the prestigious grant to investigate how microorganisms reactivate their metabolism after prolonged dormancy.

Nitrogen-fixing Nostoc species form symbiotic relationships with diverse plants, yet the role of specialized metabolites in these interactions remains poorly understood. Here, we identify a previously...

Bloom-forming cyanobacteria thrive in highly dynamic light environments, yet the mechanisms enabling rapid acclimation to fluctuating irradiance remain poorly understood. Here, we compared light accli...

We are seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher to investigate extracellular electron uptake in photosynthetic bacteria (cyanobacteria), focusing on underlying molecular mechanisms and regulation, and with c...

We're looking for: Group Leader - Freshwater Ecosystem-Climate Feedback Modeller (f/m/x) (Full or Part Time) • Neuglobsow, Stechlin, Deutschland

Biochemical characterization of the peptidase candidate NosP reveals bifunctional endo- and aminopeptidase activity in the leader peptide removal of class I microviridins from Nostoc punctiforme. The...

Covering: 2021 to 2024This review highlights cyanobacteria secondary metabolites reported between 2021 and 2024. Those compounds are categorised into major classes, including peptides, alkaloids, lipi...

Cyanobacteria are prolific producers of biologically active compounds that are important in influencing ecology, behavior of interacting organisms, and as leads in drug discovery efforts. Here we…

Carboxysomes are cyanobacterial CO2-concentrating compartments with a proteinaceous shell. The elucidation of the role of the shell adaptor protein ApN in stepwise β-carboxysome assembly will aid the ...

Abstract. Bacterial secondary metabolites are a major source of therapeutics and play key roles in microbial ecology. These compounds are encoded by biosyn

Viral NblA accelerates the cyanophage infection cycle, directs degradation of the host phycobilisome and other proteins, and reduces host photosynthetic light-harvesting efficiency.

As a leading research institution for microbial biotechnology the Institute of Bio- and Geosciences - Biotechnology (IBG-1, https://www.fz-juelich.de/de/ibg/ibg-1 ) at the Forschungszentrum Jülich foc...

Soil-dwelling Actinomyces bacteria have been found to employ an iterative B12-dependent radical S-adenosylmethionine metalloenzyme to synthesize hypermethylated ribosomal peptides. These amphiphilic p...

Turku region with its 320,000 people is a major urban area and a leading hub for technological development and economic growth in Finland. This former capital, located in the southwestern Finland, has...

Modular megasynthases, such as polyketide synthases (PKSs) and non-ribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs), are molecular assembly lines that biosynthesize many pharmaceutically and ecologically import....

Nature - A new lasso peptide antibiotic exhibits broad-spectrum activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria by interfering with bacterial protein synthesis, is unaffected by common...

npj Biofilms and Microbiomes - Competition and interdependence define interactions of Nostoc sp. and Agrobacterium sp. under inorganic carbon limitation

Fungus lives within cyanobacterial sheaths in a thallus-forming symbiosis, named “phyllosymbia.”

Nonribosomal peptides are chemically and functionally diverse natural products with important applications in medicine and agriculture. Bacterial and fungal genomes contain thousands of nonribosomal p...

Abstract. The cyanobacterium Microcystis causes harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) that pose a major threat to human health and ecosystem services, particula

Abstract. Epigenetic DNA modifications are pivotal in eukaryotic gene expression, but their regulatory significance in bacteria is less understood. In Syne

The realm of natural product (NP) research is constantly expanding, with diverse applications in both medicine and industry. In this interdisciplinary…
