A bacterial strain designated YYJ7-1 was isolated from farmland soil in China and characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Cells of strain YYJ7-1 were Gram-staining-positive, aerobic or facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped, motile and endospore-forming. Growth occurred at 18-42 °C (optimum at 35 °C), at pH 6.0-8.0 (optimum at pH 7.5) and with 0.0-4.0 % NaCl (optimum with 0.5 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the strain belonged to the genus Paenibacillus and showed high levels of sequence similarity with respect to Paenibacillus provencensis 4401170 (98.6 %) and Paenibacillus urinalis 5402403 (98.4 %), while lower 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities were observed with all other type strains (97.0 %). However, strain YYJ7-1 showed low DNA-DNA relatedness with P. provencensis 4401170 48.7±4.5 % (43.6±7.1 % in a reciprocal experiment), and P. urinalis 5402403 38.9±5.7 % (35.6±6.8 %). The major cellular fatty acids (>10.0 %) of strain YYJ7-1 were anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The polar lipid profile consisted of phospholipids, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. The major isoprenoid quinone was MK-7. The DNA G+C content was 39.4 mol%. Based on these results, it is concluded that strain YYJ7-1 represents a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus shunpengii sp. nov. is proposed, with YYJ7-1 (=ACCC 19965=KCTC 33849) as the type strain.

Here, we found that PMA1 expression was significantly increased in from patients with IBD compared to that in healthy controls. A Crispr-Cas9-based fungal strain editing system was then used to knock out PMA1 expression in .

Background: Streptococcal Toxic Shock Syndrome (STSS) is a life-threatening condition caused by bacterial toxins. The STSS triad encompasses high fever, hypotensive shock, and a "sunburn-like" rash with desquamation. STSS, like Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS), is a rare complication of streptococcal infec-tions caused by Group A Streptococcus (GAS), Streptococcal pyogenes (S.

X-ray diffraction is ideal for probing the sub-surface state during complex or rapid thermomechanical loading of crystalline materials. However, challenges arise as the size of diffraction volumes increases due to spatial broadening and because of the inability to deconvolute the effects of different lattice deformation mechanisms. Here, we present a novel approach that uses combinations of physics-based modeling and machine learning to deconvolve thermal and mechanical elastic strains for diffraction data analysis.

Background: During the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, dominant viral variants were repeatedly replaced by new variants with altered properties, frequently changing the dynamics of the infection event, as well as the effectiveness of vaccines and therapeutics. SARS-CoV-2 variant monitoring by whole genome sequencing was established at the University Medical Center Mainz, Germany to support patient management during the pandemic.
Methods: SARS-CoV-2 RNA samples from the University Medical Center were analysed weekly with whole genome sequencing.
