Widely distributed in nature, sulfated glycan epitopes play important roles diverse pathophysiological processes. However, due to their structural complexity, the preparation of with structurally defined sulfation patterns is challenging, which significantly hampers detailed elucidation biological functions at molecular level. Here, we introduce a strategy for site-specific chemical epitopes, leveraging enzymatic sialylation and desialylation processes precisely control regio-specificity...
Summary Multicellular magnetotactic prokaryotes (MMPs) are a group of microorganisms composed 10–40 Gram‐negative cells. Currently, all the identified MMPs show spherical morphology and synthesize mainly iron sulfide magnetosomes. In this study, we report novel genus with peculiar ellipsoidal oxide magnetosomes, which were discovered in intertidal sediment Yellow Sea China. Optical fluorescence microscopy revealed that organism was ∼10 × 8 µm size ∼40 cells enveloped by an outer layer....
Summary Two morphotypes of multicellular magnetotactic prokaryotes ( MMPs ) have been identified: spherical (several species) and ellipsoidal (previously one species). Here, we report novel that are ∼ 10 × 8 μm in size, composed about 86 cells arranged six to eight interlaced circles. Each MMP was synthesized either bullet‐shaped magnetite magnetosomes alone, or both rectangular greigite magnetosomes. They showed north‐seeking magnetotaxis, ping‐pong motility negative phototaxis at a...
MicroRNAs are known to play a crucial role in plant development and physiology become target for investigating the regulatory mechanism underlying low phosphate tolerance. ZmmiR528 has been shown display significantly different expression levels between wild-type Pi-tolerant maize mutants. However, its functional Pi tolerance remains unknown. In present study, we studied molecular of miR528 with Overexpression resulted impaired root growth, reduced uptake capacity compromised resistance...
To investigate the mechanisms by which Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) promotes malignant progression of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) through recruitment chemokine receptor 6-positive (CCR6+) regulatory T cells (Treg) in tumor microenvironment (TME). The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was used to analyze correlation between ligand 20 (CCL20), CCR6, and Treg. Treg enrichment index expression levels interleukin (IL)-10 necrosis factor β1 (TGF-β1) were assessed high CCR6...
The evolution of microbial magnetoreception (or magnetotaxis) is great interest in the fields microbiology, evolutionary biology, biophysics, geomicrobiology, and geochemistry. Current genomic data from magnetotactic bacteria (MTB), only prokaryotes known to be capable sensing Earth's geomagnetic field, suggests an ancient origin magnetotaxis domain Bacteria Vertical inheritance, followed by multiple independent magnetosome gene cluster loss, considered one major forces that drove at or...
A combination of microscopic, molecular and biogeochemical methods was used to study the structure, phylogenetics vertical distribution spherical multicellular magnetotactic prokaryotes (MMPs) intertidal sediments in Yellow Sea. These MMPs were 5.5 μm diameter composed approximately 15-30 cells. They synthesized bullet-shaped magnetites chains or clusters. Phylogenetic analysis 16S rRNA gene sequences suggested that these represent a novel species affiliated Deltaproteobacteria. To their...
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are capable of synthesizing intracellular organelles, the magnetosomes, that membrane-bounded magnetite or greigite crystals arranged in chains. Although MTB widely spread various ecosystems, few axenic cultures available, and only freshwater Magnetospirillum spp. have been genetically analysed. Here, we present complete genome sequence a marine magnetotactic spirillum, Magnetospira sp. QH-2. The high number repeats transposable elements account for differences...
Seamounts are undersea mountains rising abruptly from the sea floor and interacting dynamically with underwater currents. They represent unique biological habitats various microbial community structures. Certain seamount bacteria form conspicuous extracellular iron oxide structures, including encrusted stalks, flattened bifurcating tubes, filamentous sheaths. To extend our knowledge of ecosystems, we performed an integrated study on population structure occurrence magnetotactic (MTB) that...
Multicellular magnetotactic prokaryotes (MMPs) exhibit peculiar coordination of swimming along geomagnetic field lines. Approximately 40-80 cells assemble, with a helical geometry or axisymmetry, into spherical ellipsoidal MMPs respectively. To contribute to comprehensive understanding bacterial multicellularity here we took multiple microscopic approaches study the diversity, assembly, reproduction and motility MMPs. Using correlative fluorescence in situ hybridization scanning electron...
Unambiguous magnetic mineral identification in sediments is a prerequisite for reconstructing paleomagnetic and paleoenvironmental information from environmental parameters. We studied deep-sea surface sediment sample the Clarion Fracture Zone region, central Pacific Ocean, by combining measurements scanning transmission electron microscopic analyses. Eight titanomagnetite magnetite particle types are recognized based on comprehensive documentation of crystal morphology, size, spatial...
