Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) drive extensive horizontal transfer in the gut microbiome.This transfer could benefit human health by conferring new metabolic capabilities to commensal microbes, or it could threaten human health by spreading antibiotic resistance genes to pathogens.Despite their biological importance and medical relevance, MGEs from
Obesity is an important health problem with a strong environmental component that is acquiring pandemic proportion.The high availability of caloric dense foods promotes overeating potentially causing obesity.Animal models are key to validate novel therapeutic strategies, but researchers must carefully select the appropriate model to draw the right
This study investigated the effect of nitrogen application on the rhizosphere soil microenvironment of sunflower and clarified the relationship between ammonium assimilation and the microenvironment.In a field experiment high (HN, 190 kg/hm2), medium (MN, 120 kg/hm2) and low nitrogen (CK, 50 kg/hm2) treatments were made to replicate plots of sunflo
Listeria monocytogenes represents one of the main risks for food safety worldwide.Two enzyme-based antimicrobials (enzybiotics) have been combined in a novel treatment against this pathogenic bacterium, resulting in BEAUTY a powerful synergistic effect.One of the enzymes is an endolysin from Listeria phage vB_LmoS_188 with amidase activity (hencefo
