New research in mice now points to a significant role for fungi in the intestine — the communities of molds and yeasts known ...

A causal link between chronic spontaneous urticaria and gut microbiota, with metabolic pathways potentially acting as ...

This is a mechanism that can enhance bacterial survival during nutrient limitation. The phylum also shows signs of hydrogen metabolism. Both CO and hydrogen are ubiquitous energy sources ...

These organisms have relatively short genomes, limited metabolic function ... the scientists counted 35 phyla (types) of bacteria, 28 of which were new. This addition brings the total number ...

Intriguingly, these findings point to the possibility that aerobic metabolism may have occurred ... The ancestors of major bacterial phyla are placed in the Archean and Proterozoic eras (2.5 ...
