Journal ArticleDOI
CRISPR-mediated targeted mRNA degradation in the archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus
TL;DR: In vivo cleavage of mRNA in a prokaryote mediated by small RNAs and the re-programming of the system to silence specific genes of interest are demonstrated and are analogous to RNA interference in eukaryotes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological methane production under putative Enceladus-like conditions.
Ruth-Sophie Taubner,Patricia Pappenreiter,Jennifer Zwicker,Daniel Smrzka,Christian Pruckner,Philipp Kolar,Sébastien Bernacchi,Arne Seifert,Alexander Krajete,Wolfgang Bach,Jörn Peckmann,Jörn Peckmann,Christian Paulik,M. G. Firneis,Christa Schleper,Simon K.-M. R. Rittmann +15 more
TL;DR: It is shown that a methanogenic archaeon, Methanothermococcus okinawensis, can produce CH4 under physicochemical conditions extrapolated for Saturn’s icy moon, Enceladus, and that serpentinization may produce sufficient H2 for biological methane production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intestinal Microbiota Signatures Associated With Inflammation History in Mice Experiencing Recurring Colitis
David Berry,Orest Kuzyk,Isabella Rauch,Susanne Heider,Clarissa Schwab,Eva Hainzl,Thomas Decker,Mathias Müller,Birgit Strobl,Christa Schleper,Tim Urich,Michael Wagner,Lukas Kenner,Lukas Kenner,Alexander Loy +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the beginnings of recurrent inflammation using the dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) mouse model of chemically induced colitis and found that characteristic inflammationassociated microbiota could be detected in recovery-phase mice.
Journal ArticleDOI
A plant-microbe interaction framework explaining nutrient effects on primary production.
Petr Čapek,Stefano Manzoni,Eva Kaštovská,Birgit Wild,Kateřina Diáková,Jiří Bárta,Jörg Schnecker,Christina Biasi,Pertti J. Martikainen,Ricardo J. Eloy Alves,Georg Guggenberger,Norman Gentsch,Gustaf Hugelius,Juri Palmtag,Robert Mikutta,Olga Shibistova,Tim Urich,Christa Schleper,Andreas Richter,Andreas Richter,Hana Šantrůčková +20 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the response of primary production to nitrogen and phosphorus additions is accurately predicted by the stoichiometric framework, with predicted responses supported by a meta-analysis of N–P fertilization experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant-derived compounds stimulate the decomposition of organic matter in arctic permafrost soils

Eloy Alves,Jiří Bárta,Antje Gittel,Gustaf Hugelius,Anna Knoltsch,Peter Kuhry,Nikolay Lashchinskiy,Robert Mikutta,Robert Mikutta,Juri Palmtag,Christa Schleper,Jörg Schnecker,Jörg Schnecker,Olga Shibistova,Olga Shibistova,Mounir Takriti,Mounir Takriti,Vigdis Torsvik,Tim Urich,Tim Urich,Margarete Watzka,Hana Šantrůčková,Georg Guggenberger,Georg Guggenberger,Andreas Richter +29 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide mechanistic insights into the susceptibility of soil organic matter decomposition in arctic permafrost soils to priming and find that an increased availability of plant-derived organic C particularly stimulated decomposition.
