Natural interactions between the diet, microbiome, and immunity are largely unstudied. Here we employ wild three-spined sticklebacks as a model, combining field observations with complementary experimental manipulations of diet designed to mimic seasonal variation in the wild. We clearly demonstrate that season-specific diets are a powerful causal driver of major systemic immunophenotypic variation.

In Corynebacterium diphtheriae, diphtheria toxin is encoded by the tox gene of some temperate corynephages such as beta. beta-like corynephages are capable of inserting into the C. diphtheriae chromosome at two specific sites, attB1 and attB2.

Aims: Gordonia jacobaea is a recently isolated bacterial species with potential industrial application on account of its ability to store large quantities of trans-canthaxanthin. Its genetic manipulation is, however, difficult and cumbersome owing to the presence of mycolic acids in the cell wall and, especially, because of current lack of knowledge about its basic genetics. The present work describes a method for the genetic transformation of G.

A new insertion sequence from Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 14999 was isolated and characterized. This IS element, designated IS14999, comprised a 1149 bp nucleotide sequence with 22 bp imperfect terminal inverted repeats. IS14999 carries a single open reading frame of 345 amino acids encoding a putative transposase that appears to have partial homology to IS642, an IS630/Tc1 superfamily element, at the C-terminal region in the amino acid sequence.
