Structural models of zebrafish (Danio rerio) NOD1 and NOD2 NACHT domains suggest differential ATP binding orientations: insights from computational modeling, docking and molecular dynamics simulations. [PDF]
Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 1 (NOD1) and NOD2 are cytosolic pattern recognition receptors playing pivotal roles in innate immune signaling.

White spot syndrome virus VP12 interacts with adenine nucleotide translocase of Litopenaeus vannamei
White spot syndrome virus VP12 contains cell attachment motif RGD which is considered to be critical for host cell binding. Until now, the function of this protein remains undefined. In this study, we explored the interaction of VP12 with host cells.

SLC25A4high hepatocytes drive metabolic‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) remission by recruiting lipid‐eating macrophages. The hepatocyte Slc25a4/PANX1/ATP/P2ry12 axis mediates find‐me signaling that triggers macrophage recruitment and efferocytosis, while recruited macrophages secrete GDF15 to activate hepatocyte PPARα and promote fatty acid

ANT2-defective fibroblasts exhibit normal mitochondrial bioenergetics
Adenine nucleotide translocase 2 (ANT2) transports glycolytic ATP across the inner mitochondrial membrane. Patients with ANT2 deletion were recently reported. We aimed at characterizing mitochondrial functions in ANT2-defective fibroblasts.

SEC Mediates m6A Deposition and Transcription Pause Release to Drive Cell Identity Transition
The SEC promotes cell identity transitions by facilitating transcription pause release at key identity‐associated genes, including Klf4 and Myc during iPSC reprogramming and Nes and Tubb3 during ESC‐to‐neuroectodermal differentiation. During early iPSC reprogramming, this function additionally involves cooperation with METTL3‐associated m6A regulation.

Information Entropy of Influenza A Segment 7
Information entropy (H) is a measure of uncertainty at each position within in a sequence of nucleotides.H was used to characterize a set of influenza A segment 7 nucleotide sequences. Nucleotide locations of high entropy were identified near the 5’

Oral exposure to cannabis‐associated Actinomyces species, particularly A. meyeri, is associated with anxiety‐like behavior in mice in the absence of detectable bacterial translocation or overt systemic inflammation. These findings support a potential oral‐brain metabolic axis involving candidate metabolites such as arginine and argininosuccinate ...

Semi‐Artificial Photosynthesis Enables Light‐Driven Biomanufacturing in Non‐Photosynthetic Bacteria
A non‐invasive strategy exploits endogenous H2S metabolism in B. subtilis to drive in situ CdS biomineralization, enabling tight bio‐abiotic contact without genetic modification. Light harvested by the biomineralized nanoparticles powers NADPH regeneration, elevating 2’‐fucosyllactose and surfactin titres two‐ to three‐fold.

Majority‐Voting Overlapping Method for Error Correction in DNA Data Storage
We propose an overlapping‐based majority‐voting method for DNA data storage error correction. By aligning multiple reads and choosing the most frequent base per position, it suppresses substitution errors without prior models. Validated on synthetic and real sequencing data, it achieves high‐fidelity, scalable, and cost‐effective reconstruction ...

Expanded base editing in rice and wheat using a Cas9-adenosine deaminase fusion
Nucleotide base editors in plants have been limited to conversion of cytosine to thymine. Here, we describe a new plant adenine base editor based on an evolved tRNA adenosine deaminase fused to the nickase CRISPR/Cas9, enabling A•T to G•C conversion at ...
