Elevated Expression of srp RiPPs Across Bacterial Phyla in Marine Sponges

S. C. Waterworth, E. R. Rees, C. Clark, S. Carlson, I. J. Miller, M. Puglisi, J. C. Kwan

The paper examines transcriptional activity of bacterial communities in marine sponges, finding that less abundant bacterial bins are more transcriptionally active and that srp RiPPs are highly expressed across diverse phyla.

Comparative genomics provides insight into the function of broad-host range sponge symbionts

S. C. Waterworth, S. Parker-Nance, J. C. Kwan, R. A. Dorrington

The paper compares the functional potential and phylogenetic relationships of broad-host range sponge symbionts with specialized ones, showing distinct evolutionary acquisition patterns.

Conserved bacterial genomes from two geographically distinct peritidal stromatolite formations shed light on potential functional guilds

S. C. Waterworth, E. W. Isemonger, E. R. Rees, R. A. Dorrington, J. C. Kwan

The paper identifies conserved bacterial species in two peritidal stromatolite formations and hypothesizes their role in carbonate precipitation and lithification.

Horizontal gene transfer to a defensive symbiont with a reduced genome amongst a multipartite beetle microbiome

S. C. Waterworth, L. V. Florez, E. R. Rees, C. Hertweck, M. Kaltenpoth, J. C. Kwan

The paper identifies a reduced-genome symbiont in a beetle microbiome that acquired defensive gene clusters through horizontal transfer before genome reduction.
