This study uses phage-based manipulation to reveal ecological interactions in gut microbiomes by targeting Escherichia fergusonii and analyzing its role in community dynamics.

This paper develops a method to disrupt specific microbial metabolic interactions by quenching corrinoids using BtuG, showing it blocks corrinoid-dependent growth and measures cobalamin release rates in a model bacterial coculture.

This study evolves E. coli with a less-effective cobamide to identify genetic adaptations that improve growth, finding increased BtuB expression and BtuR overexpression enhance cobamide-dependent growth.

The paper investigates corrinoid production and dependence in soil bacteria to understand metabolic interactions, finding metabolic compatibility and conserved traits across genera.

The paper investigates how corrinoid structure affects soil microbial community composition and stability through experimental and genomic analysis.

The paper trains a deep recurrent neural network to predict bacterial two-component signaling pairs, accurately recommending HK-RR pairs including orphans in Escherichia coli.
