Determination of Gene‐Level Fitness Contributions Across the Mucin‐Utilization Network of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Genome‐wide CRISPRi and RNA‐seq resolve how B. thetaiotaomicron converts host mucosal glycans into fitness. The study reveals a layered mucin‐utilization architecture in which capsular polysaccharides constrain surface access, extracellular CAZymes and peptidases show functional redundancy, and intracellular catabolic pathways create discrete metabolic

Reference Whole Genome Sequence Analyses and Characterization of a Novel Carnobacterium maltaromaticum Distinct Sequence Type Isolated from a North American Gray Wolf (Canis lupus) Gastrointestinal Tract

Veterinary Sciences
We hypothesize that bacteria isolated from free-ranging animals could potentially be useful for practical applications. To meet this objective a Gram-positive bacterium was isolated from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of a Gray Wolf (Canis lupus) using ...

A Dual‐Delivery System Designed to Overcome EV‐Mediated Ferroptosis Resistance for Efficient Solid Tumor Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
(A) Establishment and characterization of the osteosarcoma‐targeted dual‐delivery nanoplatform mBAP1/siENO1@LNP‐OTP for simultaneous regulation of BAP1 and ENO1 in tumor cells. (B) After intravenous administration, mBAP1/siENO1@LNP‐OTP preferentially accumulates at tumor sites through OTP‐mediated targeting.

In Vitro Selection of Functional Neoproteins Containing Highly Fluorinated Cores

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The generation of neoproteins—functional proteins containing unnatural amino acids—is a key goal in synthetic biology. We develop a platform to discover neoproteins with specified bioactivity from trillion‐member sequence libraries, using genetic code reprogramming, in vitro selection and microwave peptide synthesis.

Diversity of CRISPR-Cas Systems Identified in Urological Escherichia coli Strains

Microorganisms
Type I-E and I-F CRISPR-Cas systems were identified in 237 E. coli strains isolated from patients with urinary tract infections (UTIs) between 2004 and 2019. The strains were classified into nine distinct groups (I–IX) based on the presence or absence of

A Chiral Virus‐Like Nanoplatform That Broadly Mediates Antibiotic Delivery to the Brain for Bacterial Meningitis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chiral virus‐mimicking mesoporous silica nanostructures (CVSNs) efficiently transport diverse antibiotics across the blood–brain barrier (BBB) into brain parenchyma and cerebrospinal fluid. By enhancing delivery to microglia and astrocytes, CVSNs improve antibiotic bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy against both Gram‐negative and Gram‐positive ...

Quantifying Structure‐Dependent Rigidity of 3D DNA Origami Boxes

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
We investigate the mechanical stability of a hollow 3D DNA origami box during assembly using liquid AFM imaging and finite element simulations. As structural completeness increases from flat sheets through intermediate assemblies to a closed box, rigidity improves.

Cross‐Sectoral AI Integration Is Essential to Tackling Food Waste and Food Insecurity: A Roadmap for Developing Resilient Food Systems

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
As food insecurity and global food demands surge, artificial intelligence (AI)‐based technologies offer promising opportunities to reduce food loss and waste. In this perspective, current AI adoption across the food supply chain is assessed using various academic, industry, and policy sources.

Complete Pathway Refactoring and Combinatorial Biosynthesis of Anthracyclines for Modulation of Histone Eviction and DNA Damage Bioactivities

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A synthetic biology platform was established for the complete refactoring of complex anthracycline biosynthetic pathways in Streptomyces coelicolor using standardized, chemically synthetic DNA parts. This modular construction enabled streamlined combinatorial biosynthesis, yielding novel analogs that decouple DNA damage from chromatin damage (histone ...
