Disparate effects of antibiotic-induced microbiome change and enhanced fitness in Daphnia magna

A. Motiei, B. Brindefalk, M. Ogonowski, R. El-Shehawy, P. Pastuszek, K. Ek, B. Liewenborg, K. Udekwu, E. Gorokhova

This study shows antibiotic exposure alters Daphnia magna microbiome but does not reduce fitness, with some concentrations even increasing growth and reproduction.

Mitochondrial proline catabolism activates Ras1/cAMP/PKA-induced filamentation in Candida albicans

F. G. S. Silao, M. Ward, K. Ryman, A. Wallstrom, B. Brindefalk, K. Udekwu, P. O. Ljungdahl

This study shows that mitochondrial proline metabolism via PUT1 and PUT2 enhances ATP production, activates the Ras1/cAMP/PKA pathway, and promotes filamentation in C. albicans, contributing to virulence.
