Canals et al. discovered a unique calcium-binding site in VcAA10, an LPMO in V. cholerae. This feature is absent in other LPMOs.
Could calcium binding reprogram this enzyme’s role, enhancing survival across environments—like estuaries vs. intestines?

Escherichia coli communities maintain glucose uptake under various antibiotics, showing resilience via low membrane potential & slow drug intake. #MicrobialAdaptation PMID:39138382, Nat Chem Biol 2025, @nchembio https://t.co/37z9XcIet8
Bacteria can swap DNA like trading cards! Through conjugation, bacteria share genetic information, speeding up the spread of traits like antibiotic resistance. 🦠🔄 #BacterialConjugation #GeneSharing #MicrobialAdaptation
Bacteria can thrive without oxygen! Anaerobic bacteria, like Clostridium, survive in environments devoid of oxygen, such as deep ocean sediments or the human gut. 🦠🌑 #AnaerobicBacteria #OxygenFreeLife #MicrobialAdaptation
Bacteria can detect changes in temperature! Escherichia coli use special proteins to sense temperature, helping them adapt to different environments. 🦠🌡️ #TemperatureSensingBacteria #MicrobialAdaptation #EColi
Bacteria can change their shape! Under stress, bacteria like Helicobacter pylori can alter their shape to better survive harsh conditions. 🦠🔄 #ShapeShiftingBacteria #SurvivalMechanisms #MicrobialAdaptation
Bacteria can thrive in extreme cold! Psychrophiles live in icy environments, like Antarctica, surviving temperatures below freezing. 🦠❄️ #ColdLovingBacteria #ExtremeSurvivors #MicrobialAdaptation
3/7 We found that mutualistic communities faced extinction under stress, while prototrophs remained stable. #MicrobialAdaptation 🧫
Bacterial species evolve and adapt within ecological landscapes. This study on freshwater bacteria reveals biphasic adaptation linked to genome sizes, indicating niche adaptation drives speciation. #MicrobialAdaptation. Daily biotech insights👉🏼@gathersight https://t.co/ElLP0ngpcs
