β-glucan utilization in marine Bacteroidota is controlled by a membrane-spanning one-component system

This paper identifies a one-component regulatory system in marine Bacteroidota that controls laminarin utilization, showing it activates gene clusters and operates without phosphorylation.

Utilization and degradation of laminarin-based substrates by marine yeasts suggests their niche-specific role in microbial loop dynamics.

This study examines how marine yeasts degrade laminarin-based substrates, finding that yeast growth is negatively correlated with oligomer length and suggesting a niche role in microbial loop dynamics.

Resource partitioning in organosulfonate utilization by free-living heterotrophic bacteria during a North Sea microalgal bloom

This study analyzes metagenomic, metatranscriptomic, and metaproteomic data from a North Sea microalgal bloom to show resource partitioning among bacterial clades utilizing different organosulfur compounds.

Marine Gammaproteobacteria use SusC/D-like proteins in fructan utilization

This study identifies SusC/D-like proteins in marine Gammaproteobacteria for fructan utilization, challenging the notion that these proteins are exclusive to Bacteroidota.
