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

Linda Gorniak, Sophie M. Gutenthaler, Alina Lobe…·Carl‐Eric Wegner

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

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

Linda Gorniak, Sarah Luise Bucka, Bayan Nasr…·Carl‐Eric Wegner

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.
