A toxic environment selects for specialist microbiome in poison frogs

S. N. Caty, A. Alvarez-Buylla, C. Vasek, E. E. Tapia, N. A. Martin, T. McLaughlin, P. K. Weber, X. Mayali, L. A. Coloma, M. M. Morris, L. A. O'Connell

This study shows that alkaloid exposure in poison frogs increases skin microbiome diversity and enables specific microbial adaptations to toxic environments.

Binding and sequestration of poison frog alkaloids by a plasma globulin

A. Alvarez-Buylla, M. D. Moya Garzon, A. E. Rangel, E. E. Tapia, J. Tanzo, H. T. Soh, L. A. Coloma, J. Z. Long, L. A. O'Connell

The paper identifies a plasma globulin in poison frogs that binds and regulates alkaloid bioavailability, revealing a novel serpin-based mechanism for small molecule transport.
