Filamentous fungi are prolific producers of bioactive natural products and play a vital role in drug discovery. Yet, their potential cannot be fully exploited since many biosynthetic genes are silent or cryptic under laboratory culture conditions. Several strategies have been applied to activate these genes, with heterologous expression as one of the most promising approaches.

Methanotrophic bacteria are Gram-negative, aerobic organisms that use methane as their sole source of carbon and energy. In this study, we constructed and exemplified a CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing system and used it to successfully make gene deletions and insertions in the type I methanotroph Bath and the type II methanotroph OBBP. High frequencies of gene deletions and insertions were achieved in combination with homology-directed repair.

is an important Gram-positive bacterium for industrial biotechnology, which has been widely used to produce diverse high-value added chemicals and industrially and pharmaceutically relevant proteins. Robust and versatile toolkits for genome editing in are highly demanding to design higher version chassis. Although the () CRISPR-Cas9 has been extensively adapted for genome engineering of multiple bacteria, it has many defects, such as higher molecular weight which leads to higher carrier load, low deletion efficiency and complexity of sgRNA construction for multiplex genome editing.

The cause of high mortality is the presence of multi-drug resistant (MDR) strains, which confers a pressing need for vaccines. Although vaccines against P.

China's rapid urbanization has produced problems of excessive resource use and environmental pollution, threatening the country's sustainable development. Previous studies mainly focused on empirical observation of the interactions between urbanization and the eco-environment, mainly using econometric models which lacked detailed explanations of the coupling mechanisms between various elements. No quantitative models have been developed to describe the complex nonlinear relationships between various elements, so our understanding of urbanization and eco-environment coupling is vague, and therefore not conducive to coordinating the relationship between them.
