Boosting biovanillin – the most demanded flavoring compound! P. putida KT2440 was engineered to convert ferulic acid to vanillin. Using a polystyrene-based resin to remove toxic vanillin during conversion raised yield from 0.6 g/L to >3.3 g/L. doi.org/10.1111/1751-7…

P. aeruginosa poses a major challenge due to drug resistance. Ofori et al report that aminoglycoside efficacy is waning, but they describe new strategies: combinational therapies, adjuvants, silver & others show promise in re-sensitizing resistant strains. doi.org/10.1111/1751-7…

Amino acids in cucumber root exudates trigger Bacillus spore germination via GerA, enhancing root colonization and plant growth. Tao et al have identified key germinators and receptors, advancing targeted biofertilizer applications for improved agriculture.doi.org/10.1111/1751-7…

Gu et al report that PEG pre-treatment boosts colonization, oral gavage sustains it, and enema resolves dysbiosis faster. Selective colonization remains a challenge, highlighting the need for tailored FMT strategies in preclinical models. doi.org/10.1111/1751-7…

Scientific research drives human progress, but rigour is its lifeblood. Predatory publishing and “publish or perish” undermine quality, truth & public trust. We must accredit journals, reform incentives & embrace “publish less, publish better”. doi.org/10.1111/1751-7…

Molecular and functional assays highlight the relevance of species-specific polymorphisms in a B12 riboswitch of the Mycobacterium genus. Campos-Pardos et al provide proof-of-concept to engineer a whole-cell biosensor capable of detecting vitamin B12. doi.org/10.1111/1751-7…

Chicken manure is a rich, underused source of bile acids! Holert et al show chenodeoxycholic acid can be extracted & directly converted into valuable ursodeoxycholic acid for pharma use. doi.org/10.1111/1751-7…

Synthetic biology: A novel methanol-free system using the HSP70 promoter in K. phaffii enables safe, heat-induced expression of recombinant proteins. Fe₃O₄ nanoparticle-immobilized cells boost secretion—ideal for food/pharma-grade production! doi.org/10.1111/1751-7…
