Metaproteomics Reveals Abundant Transposase Expression in Mutualistic Endosymbionts
Transposases, enzymes that catalyze the movement of mobile genetic elements, are the most abundant genes in nature. While many bacteria encode an abundance of transposases in their genomes, the current paradigm is that the expression of transposase genes is tightly regulated and generally low due to its severe mutagenic effects. In the current study, we detected the highest number of transposas...
متن کاملMetaproteomics: studying functional gene expression in microbial ecosystems.
The recent availability of extensive metagenomic sequences from various environmental microbial communities has extended the postgenomic era to the field of environmental microbiology. Although still restricted to a small number of studies, metaproteomic investigations have revealed interesting aspects of functional gene expression within microbial habitats that contain limited microbial divers...
متن کاملAn Ontology Systems Approach on Human Brain Expression and Metaproteomics
Research in the last decade has shown growing evidence of the gut microbiota influence on brain physiology. While many mechanisms of this influence have been proposed in animal models, most studies in humans are the result of a pathology-dysbiosis association and very few have related the presence of certain taxa with brain substructures or molecular pathways. In this paper, we associated the f...
متن کاملMetaproteomics reveals major microbial players and their biodegradation functions in a large-scale aerobic composting plant
Composting is an appropriate management alternative for municipal solid waste; however, our knowledge about the microbial regulation of this process is still scare. We employed metaproteomics to elucidate the main biodegradation pathways in municipal solid waste composting system across the main phases in a large-scale composting plant. The investigation of microbial succession revealed that Ba...
متن کاملMetaproteomics reveals functional differences in intestinal microbiota development of preterm infants.
OBJECTIVE Development of the gastrointestinal tract and immune system can be modulated by the gut microbiota. Establishment of the intestinal microbiota, in its turn, is affected by host and environmental factors. As such, development of the gut microbiota is greatly impacted in preterm infants, who have an immature gut and are exposed to factors like hospitalization, caesarean section, antibio...
