Source-independent enrichment of light lanthanides: microbial mobilization, selective uptake, and intracellular storage

This study investigates how a bacterium selectively enriches light lanthanides from various sources, revealing mechanisms for microbial lanthanide discrimination and storage.

Biosynthetic gene clusters everywhere, but the environment selects

The study investigates BGC diversity and activity in peatland soils, finding that environmental factors influence which BGCs are expressed.

The glycine betaine-cobalamin feedback loop drives cross-feeding between marine bacteria and algae

This study shows that algal glycine betaine stimulates bacterial cobalamin production, creating a feedback loop that influences marine microbial interactions and productivity.

Changes in growth, lanthanide binding, and gene expression in Pseudomonas alloputida KT2440 in response to light and heavy lanthanides

This study investigates how light and heavy lanthanides affect growth, lanthanide binding, and gene expression in Pseudomonas alloputida KT2440, revealing differential responses and a dimmer switch mechanism for lanthanide-dependent enzymes.
