This process revealed novel genes, including those encoding opioid receptors, implicated in ENS development.

"Our research therefore shows that fundamental visual information is transmitted with differential encoding to 'higher' areas of the brain like the visual cortex in different phases of arousal," summarizes neurobiologist Laura Busse.

"For years, we have been finding gene fragments encoding the nitrogen-fixing nitrogenase enzyme, which appeared to belong to one particular non-cyanobacterial nitrogen fixer," says Marcel Kuypers, lead author on the study.

The adaptability of bacteria typically relies on the genetic diversity within the genes encoding these proteins.

Recent research shows that the infection leads to significant transcriptional modification of genes encoding proteins involved in the mitochondrial network, such as the respiratory chain, apoptosis, and the structural organization of mitochondria.
