Current biosecurity efforts are failing keep pace with globalization, revealing critical gaps in our understanding response invasions. Here, we identify four priority areas advance invasion science the face rapid global environmental change. First, should strive develop a more comprehensive framework for predicting how behavior, abundance, interspecific interactions vary relation conditions receiving environments these factors govern ecological impacts invasion. A second is understand potential synergistic effects multiple co-occurring stressors— particularly involving climate change—on establishment impact species. Climate adaptation mitigation strategies will need consider possible consequences promoting species, appropriate management responses be developed. The third address taxonomic impediment. ability detect evaluate risks compromised by growing deficit expertise, which cannot adequately compensated new molecular technologies alone. Management become increasingly challenging unless academia, industry, governments train employ personnel taxonomy systematics. Fourth, recommend that internationally cooperative bridgehead dispersal networks, organisms tend invade regions from locations where they have already established.

Abstract Synthetic biology uses living cells as the substrate for performing human-defined computations. Many current implementations of cellular computing are based on “genetic circuit” metaphor, an approximation operation silicon-based computers. Although this conceptual mapping has been relatively successful, we argue that it fundamentally limits types computation may be engineered inside cell, and fails to exploit rich diverse functionality available in natural systems. We propose notion “cellular supremacy” focus attention domains which biocomputing might offer superior performance over traditional consider potential pathways toward supremacy, suggest application areas found.

Low molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) like naphthalene and substituted naphthalenes (methylnaphthalene, naphthoic acids, 1-naphthyl N -methylcarbamate, etc.) are used in various industries exhibit genotoxic, mutagenic, and/or carcinogenic effects on living organisms. These synthetic organic compounds (SOCs) or xenobiotics considered as priority pollutants that pose a critical environmental public health concern worldwide. The extent of anthropogenic activities emissions from coal gasification, petroleum refining, motor vehicle exhaust, agricultural applications determine the concentration, fate, transport these ubiquitous recalcitrant compounds. Besides physicochemical methods for cleanup/removal, green eco-friendly technology bioremediation, using microbes with ability to degrade SOCs completely convert non-toxic by-products, has been safe, cost-effective, promising alternative.

Abstract As a frequent inhabitant of sites polluted with toxic chemicals, the soil bacterium and plant-root colonizer Pseudomonas putida can tolerate high levels endogenous exogenous oxidative stress. Yet, ultimate reason such phenotypic property remains largely unknown. To shed light on this question, metabolic network-wide routes for NADPH generation—the currency that fuels redox-stress quenching mechanisms—were inspected when P. KT2440 was challenged sub-lethal H2O2 dose as proxy conditions. 13C-tracer experiments, metabolomics, flux analysis, together assessment physiological parameters measurement enzymatic activities, revealed substantial reconfiguration in environments. In particular, periplasmic glucose processing rerouted to cytoplasmic oxidation, cyclic operation pentose phosphate pathway led significant NADPH-forming fluxes, exceeding biosynthetic demands by ~50%. The resulting surplus, turn, fueled glutathione system reduction. These properties not only account tolerance environmental insults—some which end up formation reactive oxygen species—but they also highlight value bacterial host platform bioremediation engineering.
