Abstract Streptomyces sp. isolated from marine sediment collected from Palk Strait, Bay of Bengal was investigated for its antagonistic potential. The isolate exhibited antimicrobial activity against selected bacterial strains of clinical importance such as Staphylococcus aureus MTCC 3160, Bacillus pumilus NCIM 2327, S. aureus (methicillin resistant), Escherichia coli MTCC 1698, E. coli (ESBL), Shigella flexneri MTCC 1457, Proteus vulgaris and Enterobacter cloacae. Phenotypic...

Abstract The zinc finger protein (ZFP) transcription factor family plays an important role in regulating plant growth, development, and response to abiotic stress. In this study, we aimed to determine the role of GmZAT4, a C2H2-type transcription factor, in abiotic stress tolerance. The complete coding sequence of the GmZAT4 gene was isolated from soybean root RNA, which shows highest expression level compared with leaf, flower and other tissues. Using multiple sequence alignment...

Abstract The application of bioinformatics in lipase research has the potential to discover robust members from different genomic/metagenomic databses. In this study, we explored the diversity and distribution of alkaliphilic lipases in archaea domain and metagenome data sets through phylogenetic survey. Reconstructed ancestral sequence of alkaphilic lipase was used to search the homologous alkaliphilic lipases among the archaea and metagenome public databases. Our investigation...

Abstract The fungal composition, abundance and diversity of the mangrove sediments from the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, Goa, using paired-end Illumina sequencing, hitherto unexplored by a metagenomic approach, indicated that though the types of fungal phyla were similar between the two sediments, the abundance of the species was significantly different between them (p value < 0.005). Basidiomycota and Ascomycota were the two major phyla which were sub-divided into eighteen...
