A consensus protocol for the recovery of mercury methylation genes from metagenomes

The paper presents a standardized protocol and bioinformatic pipeline for detecting and quantifying mercury methylation genes (hgcAB) in metagenomes, showing comparable efficiency between single and co-assembly approaches.

Bacterioplankton taxa compete for iron along the early spring-summer transition in the Arctic Ocean

The paper examines iron competition among bacterioplankton taxa in the Arctic Ocean during early spring-summer, finding Bacteroidetes act as cheaters by relying on siderophores synthesized by Gammaproteobacteria.

Sonic hedgehog is basolaterally sorted from the TGN and transcytosed to the apical domain involving Dispatched-1 at Rab11-ARE

The paper shows Sonic hedgehog (Shh) is sorted from the TGN to the basolateral surface and transcytosed to the apical domain via Rab11-ARE, involving Disp-1 and lipid modifications.

Prevalence of heterotrophic methylmercury detoxifying bacteria across oceanic regions

The paper examines mercury resistance genes in marine bacteria, finding they are widely distributed in oceanic regions, including the bathypelagic zone, with some strains efficiently degrading methylmercury.
