Mok K, Hallberg Z, Procknow R, Taga M
J Bacteriol . 2025 Jan; 207(2):e0028424. PMID: 39873498
Bacteria encounter chemically similar nutrients in their environment, which impact their growth in distinct ways. Among such nutrients are cobamides, the structurally diverse family of cofactors related to vitamin B...

Mok K, Sokolovskaya O, Deutschbauer A, Carlson H, Taga M
bioRxiv . 2024 Nov; PMID: 39574663
Cobamides, the vitamin B (cobalamin) family of cofactors, are used by most organisms but produced by only a fraction of prokaryotes, and are thus considered key shared nutrients among microbes....

Hallberg Z, Nicolas A, Alvarez-Aponte Z, Mok K, Sieradzki E, Pett-Ridge J, et al.
ISME J . 2024 Jun; 18(1). PMID: 38832716
Soil microbial communities perform critical ecosystem services through the collective metabolic activities of numerous individual organisms. Most microbes use corrinoids, a structurally diverse family of cofactors related to vitamin B12....

Alvarez-Aponte Z, Govindaraju A, Hallberg Z, Nicolas A, Green M, Mok K, et al.
ISME J . 2024 Apr; 18(1). PMID: 38648288
Soil microbial communities impact carbon sequestration and release, biogeochemical cycling, and agricultural yields. These global effects rely on metabolic interactions that modulate community composition and function. However, the physicochemical and...

Aumiller K, Scheffler R, Stevens E, Guvener Z, Tung E, Grimaldo A, et al.
PLoS One . 2023 Oct; 18(10):e0292585. PMID: 37824485
Lactobacilli and Acetobacter sp. are commercially important bacteria that often form communities in natural fermentations, including food preparations, spoilage, and in the digestive tract of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster....

Procknow R, Kennedy K, Kluba M, Rodriguez L, Taga M
mBio . 2023 Oct; 14(5):e0158823. PMID: 37823641
In addition to proteins, microbes can use structured RNAs such as riboswitches for the important task of regulating gene expression. Riboswitches control gene expression by changing their structure in response...

Nicolas A, Sieradzki E, Pett-Ridge J, Banfield J, Taga M, Firestone M, et al.
Nat Commun . 2023 Sep; 14(1):5835. PMID: 37730729
Viruses are abundant, ubiquitous members of soil communities that kill microbial cells, but how they respond to perturbation of soil ecosystems is essentially unknown. Here, we investigate lineage-specific virus-host dynamics...

Procknow R, Kennedy K, Kluba M, Rodriguez L, Taga M
bioRxiv . 2023 Jul; PMID: 37425860
The ability to sense and respond to intracellular metabolite levels enables cells to adapt to environmental conditions. Many prokaryotes use riboswitches - structured RNA elements usually located in the 5'...
