The transcription factor CiMYC2 positively regulates terpenoid biosynthesis by activating the expression of CiHMGR and CiTPS4 in Chrysanthemum indicum var. aromaticum.

Chrysanthemum indicum var. aromaticum is a rare aromatic variant, and deciphering its molecular basis could facilitate the breeding of scented chrysanthemums. Here, we introduced its transcription factor CiMYC2 into Chrysanthemum indicum (C. indicum) to investigate the role and mechanism of CiMYC2 in regulating terpeno...

Engineering carboxyl methyltransferase for high-efficiency biosynthesis of methyl salicylate in Escherichia coli.

Methyl salicylate (MeSA) is a volatile methylated aromatic ester widely used in agriculture, food, and pharmaceuticals. Microbial biosynthesis offers a sustainable alternative to plant extraction and petrochemical synthesis; however, efficient MeSA production remains limited by the low catalytic efficiency of carboxyl...

Strong static magnetic field enhances biomass and high-value lipid production in Chlorella pyrenoidosa via metabolic regulation.

trong static magnetic field (SMF) treatment represents a promising physical strategy for regulating microalgal metabolism. This study investigated the effects of SMF on growth and lipid production in Chlorella pyrenoidosa. Results showed that SMF exposure at 3T for 10 min under photoperiodic conditions was optimal, ach...

Prevalence of antibodies against Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus in blood donors in the states of Saxony and Berlin/Brandenburg, eastern Germany.

NS1-based serology revealed a markedly underestimated TBEV infection burden and may improve surveillance, identification of emerging risk areas, and targeted vaccination strategies.

A multidimensional integrated diagnostic strategy using needle sheath flushing solution: combining PGM-based GPC3 protein detection and gene methylation analysis for improved liver cancer diagnosis.

It is demonstrated that NSF-based multidimensional analysis integrating PGM-based GPC3 protein detection and Septin9/RASSF1A methylation profiling provides substantial complementary diagnostic value to conventional pathology, presenting a promising strategy for precision diagnosis of liver cancer.

White and whole wheat flour breads: composition and simultaneous exposure to group B trichothecenes.

BACKGROUND The study aimed to determine the profile of group B trichothecenes (TCTBs), to estimate the daily exposure to them and to evaluate the relationship with the composition of different types of sliced wheat bread. A method for simultaneous determination of the TCTBs (deoxynivalenol (DON), 3-acetyl-deoxynivaleno...

Reversible Modulation of Glycan Recognition in C‐Type Lectins by Calcium/Lanthanide Exchange

C‐type lectins are Ca2+‐dependent glycan‐binding proteins involved in immune recognition and host–pathogen interactions. Previous structural studies suggested that lanthanide ions can replace Ca2+ while preserving protein structure, raising the possibility of exploiting paramagnetic lanthanides as NMR probes for studyi...

Tardigrades have a complete condensin II: two divergent CAP-H2 kleisins in three eutardigrade genomes

Condensin II shapes interphase genome architecture: species that lack it tend to fold their chromosomes in a Rabl-like, type-I configuration, while species that have it form chromosome territories (type II). In the study that established this, the tardigrade Hypsibius dujardini (now H. exemplaris) was the only species...

Experimental characterization of zeta viruses and discovery of betaviroid-like RNAs expand the diversity of coding circular RNA replicons

Viroid-like RNAs (vdlRNAs) are infectious agents characterized by single-stranded circular genomes folding into compact secondary structures, often containing self-cleaving ribozymes involved in replication. Recent metatranscriptomic studies have expanded their diversity across multiple ecological niches and revealed n...

Data mining sheds light on a novel family of plant-associated negative-sense RNA viruses linked to lispiviruses

Large-scale mining of public transcriptomic datasets can reveal viral diversity that remains invisible to conventional virus-surveillance approaches, while increasingly powerful structure-prediction methods provide a complementary route to characterizing highly divergent viral proteins. Here, we combine sequence detect...

ESMCHalo: halophile-associated protein prediction with frozen protein representations

ESMCHalo is a frozen protein-sequence predictor that combines ESMC-600M layer-36 canonical mean representations with five compact student heads trained using out-of-fold teacher targets with documented cross-fold limitations. The release provides frozen inference code, model checkpoints, calibration, a fixed threshold,...
