A crucial process in the production of industrial enzymes is recombinant gene expression, which aims to induce enzyme overexpression of the genes in a host microbe. Current approaches for securing overexpression rely on molecular tools such as adjust...

α-amylase is known to have antibiofilm activity against biofilms of both Gram positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. Partially purified α-amylase from Bacillus subtilis was found to have inhibit biofilm formed by P. aeruginosa and S. aureus. T...
Contiguous genes in prokaryotes are often arranged into operons. Detecting operons plays a critical role in inferring gene functionality and regulatory networks. Human experts annotate operons by visually inspecting gene neighborhoods across pileups ...
To investigate the structure-dependent peptide mobility behavior in ion mobility spectrometry (IMS), quantitative structure-spectrum relationship (QSSR) is systematically modeled and predicted for the collision cross section Ω values of totally 162 s...
The transcriptional regulatory network (TRN) of Bacillus subtilis coordinates cellular functions of fundamental interest, including metabolism, biofilm formation, and sporulation. Here, we use unsupervised machine learning to modularize the transcrip...
Quantification of phenotypic heterogeneity present amongst bacterial cells can be a challenging task. Conventionally, classification and counting of bacteria sub-populations is achieved with manual microscopy, due to the lack of alternative, high-thr...
Promoter recognition is an important part of functional genomic annotation but a difficult problem. Many studies have been carried out to address this issue. However, they still cannot meet application needs. Most of the methods exhibit specificity, ...
Short (15-30 residue) chains of amino acids at the amino termini of expressed proteins known as signal peptides (SPs) specify secretion in living cells. We trained an attention-based neural network, the Transformer model, on data from all available o...
Signal crosstalk within biological communication networks is common, and such crosstalk can have unexpected consequences for decision making in heterogeneous communities of cells. Here we examined crosstalk within a bacterial community composed of fi...
Xylanases are hydrolytic enzymes which based on physicochemical properties, structure, mode of action and substrate specificities are classified into various glycoside hydrolase (GH) families. The purpose of this study is to show that the activity of...
