El Mouali and Tawk et al. characterize the oxygen-tolerance response in the human gut-residing bacterium Segatella copri. They identified a subset of strains that acquired an additional oxygen regulat...

Zagieboylo and colleagues demonstrate that the human commensal Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron secretes two self-targeting proteins that induce heterogeneity within its own population. Differential expre...

Symbiotic bacteria in the human intestinal microbiota provide many pivotal functions to human health and occupy distinct biogeographic niches within the gut. Yet the molecular basis underlying niche-s...

Bornet et al. investigate the morphological heterogeneity of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron cells observed both in laboratory culture and inside the mammalian GI tract. The authors show that cell size is only partially dictated by cell-cycle progression and is associated with distinct gene expression programs that suggest metabolic differentiation.
