One Bacterial Cell, One Complete Genome
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the completed genome from an uncultured single cell of Candidatus Sulcia muelleri DMIN, which is a polyploid species with genome copies ranging from approximately 200-900 per cell.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dual RNA-Sequencing to Elucidate the Plant-Pathogen Duel.
TL;DR: This review focuses on the design of dual RNA-seq experiments and the application of downstream data analysis to gain biological insight into both sides of the interaction and a reduction in sequencing cost and single cell transcriptomics coupled with protein and metabolite level dual approaches are set to enhance understanding of plant-pathogen interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser microdissection: A powerful tool for genomics at cell level.
TL;DR: How the latest developments in protocols and methods have made LM a powerful and sometimes essential tool for genomic and proteomic analyzes of tiny amounts of biomolecules extracted from few cells isolated from a complex tissue, in their physiological context, thus offering new opportunities for understanding fundamental physiological and/or patho-physiological processes is seen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser capture microdissection to study Bacillus cereus iron homeostasis gene expression during Galleria mellonella in vivo gut colonization.
Laurent Consentino,Agnès Rejasse,Nicolas Crapart,Claudia Bevilacqua,Christina Nielsen-LeRoux +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used laser-capture microdissection (LCM) to select precise areas in the gut lumen from frozen whole larval cryo-sections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbiome analysis from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues: Current challenges and future perspectives.
TL;DR: In this article , the authors summarize all aspects of microbiome studies from FFPE tissues including the challenges associated with working highly degraded DNA, best practices for reducing environmental contamination, and propose solutions to address these issues.

Molecular Analysis of Commensal Host-Microbial Relationships in the Intestine
TL;DR: Coloring germ-free mice with Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron reveals that this commensal bacterium modulates expression of genes involved in several important intestinal functions, including nutrient absorption, mucosal barrier fortification, xenobiotic metabolism, angiogenesis, and postnatal intestinal maturation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiological heterogeneity in biofilms.
TL;DR: The processes that generate chemical gradients inBiofilms, the genetic and physiological responses of the bacteria as they adapt to these gradients and the techniques that can be used to visualize and measure the microscale physiological heterogeneities of bacteria in biofilms are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in bacterial biofilms.
TL;DR: Disabling biofilm resistance may enhance the ability of existing antibiotics to clear infections involving biofilms that are refractory to current treatments.
