Abstract Ice nucleation active bacteria have attracted particular attention due to their unique ability produce specific ice proteins (INpros), which are the most efficient nuclei known as they induce at temperatures close 0°C. Our model bacterium Pseudomonas syringae strain R10.79 produced INpros containing 67 tandem repeats, forming proposed ice‐binding surface. To understand role of INpro repeats well intermolecular interactions between for behavior, we a truncated version protein with...
Microbially-produced ice nucleating proteins (INpro) are unique molecular structures with the highest known catalytic efficiency for formation. Airborne microorganisms utilize these to enhance their survival by reducing atmospheric residence times. INpro also have critical environmental effects including impacts on water cycle, through role in cloud and precipitation formation, as well frost damage crops. ubiquitously present atmosphere where they emitted from diverse terrestrial marine...
Single-cell sequencing may serve as a powerful complementary technique to shotgun metagenomics study microbiomes. This emerging technology allows the separation of complex microbial communities into individual bacterial cells, enabling high-throughput genetic material from thousands singular cells in parallel. Here, we validated use microfluidics and semi-permeable capsules (SPCs) (Atrandi) isolate sewage pig fecal samples. Our method involves extracting amplifying single DNA within SPCs,...
Pseudomonas syringae is a common plant pathogen, posing significant threats to the global crop production. By producing ice-nucleating proteins (INpro), encoded by inaZ gene, cells can inflict frost injuries plants, gaining access nutrient-rich tissue. Furthermore, P. impact cloud formation and interfere with atmospheric chemistry through their metabolic ice-nucleation activity. Both activity gene expression under conditions remain poorly understood, limiting our ability accurately predict...
Airborne dispersal of microorganisms influences their biogeography, gene flow, atmospheric processes, human health and transmission pathogens that affect humans, plants animals. The extent impact depends essentially on cell-survival rates during the process aerosolization. A central factor for is water availability prior to upon Also, ability cells successfully cope with stress induced by drying determines chances survival. In this study, we used ice-nucleation active, plant pathogenic...
It is held that younger smoking initiates are more likely to become regular smokers. The definitions of initiation (a puff, part a cigarette, whole cigarette) inconsistent and raise questions about the robustness view. We sought re-examine relationship using adolescent data from 3 European countries. A stratified secondary, logistic regression analysis Global Youth Tobacco Survey was conducted design-based analysis. Subgroup analyses were 13- 15-year olds Latvia (high prevalence), Slovenia...
IntroductionPopulation monitoring and screening of blood pressure is an important part any population health strategy. Qualified workers are expensive often unavailable for screening. Non-health with electronic monitors increasingly used in community-based research. This approach unvalidated. In a poor, urban community we compared measurements taken by non-health using devices against qualified mercury sphygmomanometers.MethodFifty-six adult volunteers participated the Data were collected...
ABSTRACT Microbially-produced ice nucleating proteins (INpro) are unique molecular structures with the highest known catalytic efficiency for formation. Their critical role in rain formation and frost damage of crops together their diverse commercial applications warrant an in-depth under-standing inherent nucleation mechanism. We used machine-learning based software Al-phaFold to develop first ab initio structural model a bacterial INpro which is novel beta-helix structure consisting...
