This study shows species-specific metabolic networks influence evolutionary routes to functional rescue in Bacillus subtilis under different selection pressures.

getphylo automatically generates multi-locus phylogenetic trees from GenBank files, offering faster and more flexible analysis than existing tools.

This study uses multi-omics analysis to characterize Neurospora intermedia in oncom, revealing its role in byproduct conversion and potential for waste-to-food upcycling.

This study analyzes the microbial ecology of novel miso varieties made from different substrates, finding that substrate and geography strongly influence microbial composition and gene presence.

The paper identifies an iron-dependent enzyme in plants that completes the lysine catabolism pathway, showing structural and functional conservation across species.

The paper develops a highly sensitive biosensor for caprolactam and valerolactam from Pseudomonas putida, capable of detecting product titers above background at ~6 g/L.

The paper introduces two tools, BiG-SCAPE and CORASON, for analyzing biosynthetic gene clusters in large genomic datasets, demonstrating their utility through validation and discovery of new gene cluster families.

The paper characterizes two glutarate-sensing transcription factors in Pseudomonas putida and develops biosensors to detect glutarate flux for metabolic engineering.

This study identifies and disrupts genes in Pseudomonas putida that cause unwanted metabolism of valerolactam, increasing its production titer.
