Betacoronavirus-specific change splicing. , Korsak, Burteau, Fall, Farnir and Daube.The growth of Listeria monocytogenes on refrigerated, ready-to-eat food products is a major health and economic concern. The natural antimicrobial nisin targets the bacterial cell wall and can be used to inhibit L. monocytogenes growth on cheese. Cell wall composition and structure, and therefore the efficacy of cell wall acting control strategies, can be severely affected by environmental and stress conditions. The goal of this study was to determine the effect of a range of pH and temperatures on the efficacy of nisin against several strains of L. monocytogenes in a lab-scale, cheese model. Cheese was made with or without the addition of nisin at different pH and then inoculated with L. monocytogenes; L. monocytogenes numbers were quantified after 1, 7, and 14 days of incubation at 6, 14, or 22°C. While our data show that nisin treatment is able to reduce L. monocytogenes numbers, at least initially, growth of this pathogen can occur even in the presence of nisin, especially when cheese is stored at higher temperatures. Several environmental factors were found to affect nisin efficacy against L. monocytogenes. For example, nisin is more effective when cheese is stored at lower temperatures. Nisin is also more effective when cheese is made at higher pH (6 and 6.5), compared to cheese made at pH 5.5, and this effect is at least partially due to the activity of cell envelope modification genes dltA and mprF. Serotype was also found to affect nisin efficacy against L. monocytogenes; serotype 4b strains showed lower susceptibility to nisin treatment compared to serotype 1/2 strains. Overall, our results highlight the importance of considering environmental conditions specific to a food matrix when developing and applying nisin-based intervention strategies against L. monocytogenes.

In this study, we reported the heterologous expression of an invertase gene (GspInv) of Gongronella sp. w5 in Komagataella pastoris. GspInv activity reached 147.6 ± 0.4 U/mL after 5 days of methanol induction. GspInv is invertase with a high specific activity of 2,776.1 ± 124.2 U/mg toward sucrose. GspInv showed high tolerance to sucrose (IC 5 0 = 1.2 M), glucose (IC 5 0 > 2 M), fructose (IC 5 0 = 1.5 M), and a variety of metal ions that make it an ideal candidate for high fructose syrup production. A carbohydrate-binding module was sequence-optimized and fused to the N-terminus of GspInv. The fusion protein had the highest immobilization efficiency at room temperature within 1 h adsorption, with 1 g of cellulose absorption up to 8,000 U protein. The cellulose-immobilized fusion protein retained the unique properties of GspInv. When applied in high fructose syrup preparation by using 1 M sucrose as the substrate, the sucrose conversion efficiency of the fused protein remained at approximately 95% after 50 h of continuous hydrolysis on a packed bed reactor. The fused protein can also hydrolyze completely the sucrose in sugarcane molasses. Our results suggest that GspInv is an unusual invertase and a promising candidate for high fructose syrup preparation.

A variety of MV types exist, ranging from 20 to 400 nm in diameter, each with their own formation routes. The most well-known vesicles are the outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) which are formed by budding from the outer membrane in Gram-negative bacteria. Recently, other types of MVs have been discovered and described, including outer-inner membrane vesicles (OIMVs) and cytoplasmic membrane vesicles (CMVs). The former are mainly formed by a process termed endolysin-triggered cell lysis in Gram-negative bacteria, the latter are formed by Gram-positive bacteria. MVs carry a wide range of cargo, such as nucleic acids, virulence factors and antibiotic resistance components. Moreover, they are involved in a multitude of biological processes that increase bacterial pathogenicity. In this review, we discuss the functional aspects of MVs secreted by bacteria associated with cystic fibrosis and nosocomial pneumonia. We mainly focus on how MVs are involved in virulence, antibiotic resistance, biofilm development and inflammation that consequently aid these bacterial infections.

In the presence of V. destructor both main genotypes (DWV-A and DWV-B) have been correlated with colony loss. Studies show that DWV-B is the most prevalent genotype in the United Kingdom and Europe. More recently DWV-B has increased in prevalence in the United States. The increasing prevalence of DWV-B at the expense of DWV-A suggests that competition exists between the genotypes. Competition may be due to disparities in virulence between genotypes, differences in fitness, such as rate of replication, or a combination of factors. In this study we investigated if DWV genotypes differ in their rate of accumulation in Australian honeybees naïve to both V. destructor and DWV, and if viral load was associated with mortality in honeybee pupae. We singly and co-infected pupae with DWV-A, DWV-B, and a recombinant strain isolated from a V. destructor tolerant bee population. We mto the increasing prevalence of DWV-B globally. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Cyclopamine.html Copyright © 2020 Norton, Remnant, Buchmann and Beekman.Low moisture content ready-to-eat foods vended in Nigerian markets could be pre-packaged or packaged at point of sale. These foods are widely and frequently consumed across Nigeria as quick foods. Despite their importance in the daily diets of Nigerians, a comprehensive study on the diversity of fungi, fungal metabolite production potential, and mycotoxin contamination in the foods has not yet been reported. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Cyclopamine.html Therefore, this study assessed the diversity of fungi in 70 samples of low moisture content ready-to-eat foods [cheese balls, garri (cassava-based), granola (a mix of cereals and nuts) and popcorn] in Nigeria by applying a polyphasic approach including morphological examination, genera/species-specific gene marker sequencing and secondary metabolite profiling of fungal cultures. Additionally, mycotoxin levels in the foods were determined by LC-MS/MS. Fungal strains (n = 148) were recovered only from garri. Molecular analysis of 107 representative isolates revealed 27 species belonging to 12 genera Acremonium, Allophoma, Aspergillus, Cladosporium, Fusarium, Microdochium, Penicillium, Sarocladium, Talaromyces, and Tolypocladium in the Ascomycota, and Fomitopsis and Trametes in the Basidiomycota.
