The paper identifies adenine as a cross-fed metabolite between Rhodopseudomonas palustris and E. coli, revealing a purine salvage bottleneck mechanism.

The paper identifies bacterial strains capable of degrading sorgoleone, a plant exudate, and characterizes the genetic basis for this trait, offering potential for engineering beneficial plant-microbe interactions.

This study shows that ATP depletion leads to cell death in Rhodopseudomonas palustris during growth arrest, while ATP-replete conditions allow long-term survival.

This study shows that partial denitrifying bacteria can sense and respond to denitrification intermediates they cannot use, revealing regulatory mechanisms for N2O reduction.

This study identifies CsrA-controlled proteins in A. baumannii that contribute to desiccation tolerance, revealing novel mechanisms involving proteins of unknown function and intrinsically disordered proteins.

This study shows that protein synthesis and a stringent response are required for bacterial longevity during growth arrest in Rhodopseudomonas palustris.
