The Neoproterozoic sedimentary successions of the Sierras Bayas Group (SBG) are situated within the Tandilia Belt, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. The Loma Negra Formation (LNF) from the upper part of the SBG has been investigated using a combination of ...
The transcriptional regulator GlxR has been characterized as a global hub within the gene-regulatory network of Corynebacterium glutamicum. Chromatin immunoprecipitation with a specific anti-GlxR antibody and subsequent high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq ...
Bacterial genomics is flourishing, as whole-genome sequencing has become affordable, readily available, and rapid. As a result, it has become clear how frequently horizontal gene transfer (HGT) occurs in bacteria. The potential implications are highly sign ...
Bacteria forage by moving towards nutrient sources in a process known as chemotaxis. The bacteria follow gradient variations by tumbling or moving in straight lines. Both modes of locomotion are affected by Brownian motion. Bacteria are also capable of int ...
Organohalide respiration (OHR) is a bacterial anaerobic respiratory metabolism dedicated to use halogenated compounds as terminal electron acceptors. OHR bacteria are strictly anaerobic microorganisms which use reductive dehalogenases (RdhA) as key enzymes ...
Natural attenuation of anaerobic aquifers contaminated with tetrachloroethene (PCE) often results in the accumulation of the intermediates cis-dichloroethene and vinyl chloride (VC) which are even more toxic than the parent compound. Reasons for this accum ...
Desulfotomaculum ruminis Campbell and Postgate 1965 is a member of the large genus Desulfotomaculum which contains 30 species and is contained in the family Peptococcaceae. This species is of interest because it represents one of the few sulfate-reducing b ...
The Stráž pod Ralskem region is a part of the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin. The geological profile of the site consists of Quaternary river sediments, Middle Turonian sandstone, Lower Turonian siltstone and Cenomanian collector formed by friable sandstone con ...
Groundwater is essential for human activities and is sometimes referred to as a non-renewable resource in the same way as oil and gas. During the past century, precious groundwater reserves worldwide have been threatened by anthropogenic release of chemica ...
Respiration is a fundamental catalytic process in the aerobic and anaerobic energy metabolism of many prokaryotic and most eukaryotic organisms. The major difference between these organisms is that various organic and inorganic substrates can be used to do ...
