Streptococcal mannose phosphotransferase system component IID (Man‐PTSIID) is identified as a novel RANK‐binding osteoclastogenic factor. By directly binding to RANK and activating NF‐κB independently of TLR2, Man‐PTSIID drives osteoclastogenesis and inflammatory bone destruction, uncovering an unexpected microbial mechanism underlying streptococcal ...

One‐Step Immobilized Phage Depolymerase Coatings for Catheter‐Related Bloodstream Infections
Catheter‐related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) caused by drug‐resistant Gram‐negative bacteria remain a major clinical challenge. Here, a polydopamine‐assisted depolymerase coating degrades bacterial capsules and restores serum‐mediated killing, effectively suppressing biofilms and reducing bacterial burden in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo, presenting a

A Synthetic Platform for Antibody Junctional Diversification Beyond Natural Constraints
ARESEC is a synthetic platform that reconstructs functional V(D)J recombination in HEK293T cells. By introducing RSS elements and co‐expressing RAG1/2 and TdT across all three antibody CDRs, it enables programmable junctional diversification and direct generation of high‐affinity variants targeting PD‐1/PD‐L1, overcoming the evolutionary constraints of

THE USE OF BACTERIOPHAGES IN THE TREATMENT OF STAPHYLOCOCCAL INFECTION
Aim of study. The current rate of increase in the number of antimicrobial-resistant infections is poised to become the leading global cause of loss of human life.

A minimal extracellular epitope from voltage‐gated sodium channel NaV1.7 was engineered into an isotope‐labelled antigen for antigen‐detected nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Together with AlphaFold2 (AF2), this enabled structure‐guided selection of R4C8, a human NaV1.7‐selective nanobody that labels fixed NaV1.7‐expressing cells and produces staining

reservedWith the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, diseases that could once be cured are far less treatable and potentially lethal. Bacteriophages, also known as phages, are viruses that only infect bacteria and “phage therapy” refers to their use

Engineered Transformer Base Editor with Enhanced Editing Efficiency
A highly efficient transformer base editor system achieves robust genomic editing in a humanized mouse model. This work establishes a versatile and translatable platform, opening new avenues for precision gene therapy. ABSTRACT Canonical cytosine base editors (CBEs) achieve precise C‐to‐T conversions without inducing DNA double‐strand breaks (DSBs ...

DNA structures with short single‐strand gaps in the non‐template strand of the T7 promoter prevent transcription by T7 RNA polymerase. Contrary to intuition, however, transcriptional activity can be observed again when the size of the gap increases toward the transcription start site, thereby reducing the proportion of double‐stranded DNA in the ...

This study focuses on the isolation and characterization of bacteriophages from wastewater samples to combat multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa, as well as optimizing phage DNA extraction methods for long-read sequencing.
