The paper develops a pipeline to identify fungi with adaptation potential and pathogenic risks in spaceflight environments using proteome-wide ortholog screening.

This study evaluates sampling devices for microbial diversity in Yellowstone hot springs, finding that filtration methods affect recovery of low-abundance taxa.

The paper identifies 182 bacterial strains, including 14 novel Gram-positive species, in NASA Mars 2020 cleanrooms, highlighting their biotechnological potential despite being undetected by metagenomic sequencing.

This study shows that Aspergillus calidoustus, isolated from spacecraft cleanrooms, can survive simulated space and Martian conditions, highlighting gaps in current sterilization protocols.

This study characterizes the plasmidome, resistome, and virulence genes of Acinetobacter johnsonii from NASA cleanrooms and a clinical setting, revealing adaptability traits and antimicrobial resistance.

The paper functionally annotates genomes of ISS-isolated bacteria and identifies adaptations to space conditions through comparative genomics and proteome analysis.

This study identifies spaceflight-induced changes in gut microbiota and host gene expression in mice, suggesting altered host-microbiome interactions contribute to spaceflight-related pathologies.

This study investigates genomic, functional, and metabolic adaptations of Enterobacter bugandensis isolated from the ISS, revealing resistance mechanisms and microbial interactions that contribute to its persistence in space.

The paper uses a deep learning model to identify antimicrobial resistance genes in ISS microbiome data, revealing resistance patterns in specific bacterial species.

The paper models metabolic interactions in the ISS microbiome, identifying key mutualistic and parasitic relationships among microbes, particularly involving Klebsiella pneumoniae.
