MosAIC: An annotated collection of mosquito-associated bacteria with high-quality genome assemblies. by Aidan Foo, Laura E Brettell, Holly L Nichols, 2022 UW-Madison Capstone in Microbiology Students, Miguel Medina Muñoz, Jessica A Lysne, Vishaal Dhokiya, Ananya F Hoque, Doug E Brackney, Eric P Caragata, Michael L Hutchinson, Marcelo Jacobs-Lorena, David J Lampe, Edwige Martin, Claire Valiente Moro, Michael Povelones, Sarah M Short, Blaire Steven, Jiannong Xu, Timothy D Paustian, Michelle R Rondon, Grant L Hughes, Kerri L Coon, Eva Heinz

“…Investigation into species' pangenomes further reveals clusters of genes specific to these lineages, which are of interest for future work to test for functions connected to mosquito host association. Altogether, we describe the generation of a physical collection of mosquito-associated bacterial isolates, their genomic data, and analyses of selected groups in context of genome data from closely related isolates, providing a unique, highly valuable resource for research on bacterial colonisation and adaptation within mosquito hosts. …”

Partial Purification of <i>Bacillus cereus</i> Enzyme Expression for Bio-Pulping of Lignin Degraders Isolated from <i>Coptotermus curvignathus</i> by Sharfina Mutia Syarifah, Ashuvila Mohd Aripin, Nadiah Ishak, Nosa Septiana Anindita, Mohd Firdaus Abdul-Wahab, Angzzas Sari Mohd Kassim

“…Despite extensive research on <i>Bacillus</i> sp. as lignin degraders, the enzyme mechanisms involved, particularly in <i>Bacillus cereus</i> isolated from termite guts, remain unclear. In this study, the selected Bacillus cereus was fermented to extract the lignin-degrading enzymes to identify the enzymes responsible for lignin degradation using the sample substrate empty fruit bunch (EFB) as their sole carbon source. …”
