Structure insight of GSDMD reveals the basis of GSDMD autoinhibition in cell pyroptosis

TL;DR: The crystal structure of the C-terminal domain of human GSDMD (GSDMD-C) is determined and it is determined that one short segment is sufficient to kill bacteria in vitro and can efficiently inhibit cell growth in Escherichia coli and Mycobacterium Smegmatis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Halomonas saccharevitans sp. nov., Halomonas arcis sp. nov. and Halomonas subterranea sp. nov., halophilic bacteria isolated from hypersaline environments of China

TL;DR: In this paper, three strains of Gram-negative, aerobic, neutrophilic and halophilic bacteria were isolated from samples of a salt lake on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and a subterranean saline well in the Si-Chuan Basin of China.
Journal ArticleDOI

Halorussus rarus gen. nov., sp. nov., a new member of the family Halobacteriaceae isolated from a marine solar saltern

TL;DR: The phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic properties suggest that strain TBN4T and strain Tbn5 represent a novel species in a new genus within the family Halobacteriaceae, for which the name Halorussus rarus gen. nov. is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation and Complete Genome Sequence of Algibacter alginolytica sp. nov., a Novel Seaweed-Degrading Bacteroidetes Bacterium with Diverse Putative Polysaccharide Utilization Loci

TL;DR: This work reveals that strain HZ22T has good potential for the degradation of algal polysaccharides and that the structure and related mechanism of PUL in strain Hz22T are worth further research.
