    Abstract It is now 75 years since Marjory Stephenson became the second President of the Society for General Microbiology (SGM). Around the time of her death at the end of 1948 many articles appeared extolling Marjory Stephenson's contribution to the fields of Biochemistry and Microbiology. Not that much has been written about her since that time, which is unfortunate. Therefore, this brief review is intended as a form of redress and aims to highlight the role of this remarkable scientist in establishing the Society and in promoting Microbiology as a discipline. Notwithstanding the significance of these achievements, however, it is her overall impact on the field of 'Chemical Microbiology' and what she achieved through her research that are extraordinary, even by today's standards. Marjory Stephenson recognized that in order to understand a biological system, the 'whole' organism must be considered and this can only be achieved by adopting an interdisciplinary approach: inorganic and organic chemistry, biochemistry, genetics, metabolism and ultimately physiology. Her scientific ethos serves today as a beacon for how scientific research should be conducted, and what we as scientists can learn about how to inspire and mentor the next generation. It is impossible to overstate Marjory Stephenson's scientific legacy, or her overall contribution to Microbiology.

    Abstract Formate hydrogenlyase-1 (FHL-1) is a complex-I-like enzyme that is commonly found in gram-negative bacteria. The enzyme comprises a peripheral arm and a membrane arm but is not involved in quinone reduction. Instead, FHL-1 couples formate oxidation to the reduction of protons to molecular hydrogen (H₂). Escherichia coli produces FHL-1 under fermentative conditions where it serves to detoxify formic acid in the environment. The membrane biology and bioenergetics surrounding E. coli FHL-1 have long held fascination. Here, we review recent work on understanding the molecular basis of formic acid efflux and influx. We also consider the structure and function of E. coli FHL-1, its relationship with formate transport, and pay particular attention to the molecular interface between the peripheral arm and the membrane arm. Finally, we highlight the interesting phenotype of genetic mutation of the ND1 Loop, which is located at that interface.

    Abstract Sialic acid (Sia) transporters are critical to the capacity of host-associated bacteria to utilise Sia for growth and/or cell surface modification. While N-acetyl-neuraminic acid (Neu5Ac)-specific transporters have been studied extensively, little is known on transporters dedicated to anhydro-Sia forms such as 2,7-anhydro-Neu5Ac (2,7-AN) or 2,3-dehydro-2-deoxy-Neu5Ac (Neu5Ac2en).

    Abstract COVID-19 has been associated with a wide range of ongoing symptoms following recovery from the acute SARS-CoV-2 infection. Around one in three people with COVID-19 develop neurological symptoms with many reporting neuropathic pain and associated symptoms, including paraesthesia, numbness, and dysesthesia. Whilst the pathophysiology of long COVID-19-associated neuropathic pain remains unclear, it is likely to be multifactorial. Early identification, exclusion of common alternative causes, and a biopsychosocial approach to the management of the symptoms can help in relieving the burden of disease and improving the quality of life for patients.

    Abstract Hydrogenase enzymes are currently under the international research spotlight due to emphasis on biologically produced hydrogen as one potential energy carrier to relinquish the requirement for 'fossil fuel' derived energy. Three major classes of hydrogenase exist in microbes all able to catalyze the reversible oxidation of dihydrogen to protons and electrons. These classes are defined by their active site metal content: [NiFe]-; [FeFe]- and [Fe]-hydrogenases. Of these the [NiFe]-hydrogenases have links to ancient forms of metabolism, utilizing hydrogen as the original source of reductant on Earth. This review progresses to highlight the Group 4 [NiFe]-hydrogenase enzymes that preferentially generate hydrogen exploiting various partner enzymes or ferredoxin, while in some cases translocating ions across biological membranes. Specific focus is paid to Group 4A, the Formate hydrogenlyase complexes. These are the combination of a six or nine subunit [NiFe]-hydrogenase with a soluble formate dehydrogenase to derived electrons from formate oxidation for proton reduction. The incidence, physiology, structure and biotechnological application of these complexes will be explored with attention on Escherichia coli Formate Hydrogenlyase-1 (FHL-1).
