    Airborne Disinfection by Dry Fogging Efficiently Inactivates Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), Mycobacteria, and Bacterial Spores and Shows Limitations of Commercial Spore Carriers

    Airborne disinfection is not only of crucial importance for the safe operation of laboratories and animal rooms where infectious agents are handled but also can be used in public health emergencies such as the current severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic. We show that dry fogging an aerosolized mixture of peroxyacetic acid and hydrogen peroxide (aPAA-HP) is highly microbicidal, efficient, fast, robust,...

    Fragment Exchange Plasmid Tools for CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Gene Integration and Protease Production in Bacillus subtilis

    We complemented a cloning platform with new editing plasmids that allow a quick transition from high-throughput cloning and the expression of new enzymes to the stable integration of genes for the production of enzymes through B. subtilis fermentation. We present two systems for the effective assembly cloning of any genome-editing cassette that shortens the...

    Bacillus subtilis Modulates Its Usage of Biofilm-Bound Iron in Response to Environmental Iron Availability

    Recent pieces of evidence suggest that Fe bound to the biofilm could assume at least two important functions, a local source of Fe for uptake and a support to extracellular metabolism, such as extracellular electron transfer. Our results show that B. subtilis can use biofilm-bound Fe for uptake only if it does not compromise Fe homeostasis of the biofilm, i.e.,...

    Antibacterial Activity of Bacillus inaquosorum Strain T1 against pirABVp-Bearing Vibrio parahaemolyticus: Genetic and Physiological Characterization

    The shrimp aquaculture industry has been significantly impacted by acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND), resulting in significant financial losses annually. AHPND is caused by strains of the bacterial pathogen Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and treatment of AHPND involves the use of antibiotics, which leads to a rise in the number of antibiotic-resistant strains...

    Novel Biochemical Properties and Physiological Role of the Flavin Mononucleotide Oxidoreductase YhdA from Bacillus subtilis

    Here, we report that the bacterial flavin mononucleotide/NADPH-dependent oxidoreductase YhdA, widely distributed among Gram-positive bacilli, conferred protection to cells from the cytotoxic effects of Cr(VI) and prevented the hypermutagenesis exhibited by a MutT/MutM/MutY-deficient strain. Additionally, a purified recombinant His10-YhdA protein displayed a strong NADPH-dependent chromate reductase activity. Therefore, we...

    Applications of Bacillus subtilis Spores in Biotechnology and Advanced Materials

    The bacterium Bacillus subtilis has long been an important subject for basic studies. However, this organism has also had industrial applications due to its easy genetic manipulation, favorable culturing characteristics for large‐scale fermentation, superior capacity for protein secretion, and generally recognized as safe (GRAS) status. In addition, as the...

    Differential Modulation of Listeria monocytogenes Fitness, In Vitro Virulence, and Transcription of Virulence-Associated Genes in Response to the Presence of Different Microorganisms

    Listeria monocytogenes is the etiological agent of the severe foodborne disease listeriosis. Important insight regarding the physiology and the infection biology of this microorganism has been acquired in the past 20 years. However, despite the fact that L. monocytogenes coexists with various...

    TnFLX: a Third-Generation mariner-Based Transposon System for Bacillus subtilis

    The stability of transposase-encoding vectors during cloning and propagation is crucial for the reliable application of transposons. Here, we increased the stability of the mariner delivery vehicle in E. coli. Moreover, the TnFLX transposon system will improve the application of forward genetic methods with an increased number of antibiotic...

    Engineering Bacillus subtilis as a Versatile and Stable Platform for Production of Nanobodies

    It is highly desirable to produce biologics for diagnoses and therapeutic interventions on demand that could be used in a variety of settings. Among the many biologics, Nbs have attracted attention due to their small size, thermal stability, and broad utility in diagnoses, therapies, and fundamental research. Nbs originate from antibodies found in camelids, and >10 companies have invested in Nbs as potential drugs. Here, we present a...

    A Novel d-Allulose 3-Epimerase Gene from the Metagenome of a Thermal Aquatic Habitat and d-Allulose Production by Bacillus subtilis Whole-Cell Catalysis

    d-Allulose is a noncaloric sugar substitute with antidiabetes and antiobesity potential. With several characteristics of physiological significance, d-allulose has wide-ranging applications in the food and pharmacology industries. The development of a thermostable biocatalyst is an objective of mainstream research aimed at achieving industrial acceptability of the enzyme. Aquatic habitats...
