FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Proactive evaluation of a native European parasitoid, Anastatus bifasciatus (Hymenoptera: Eupelmidae), for biological control of Lycorma delicatula (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae) [PDF]
Lycorma delicatula (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae) is an emerging paninvasive species native to Asia, that poses a significant threat to agriculture, urban, and natural areas worldwide. Invasive populations of L.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Host-associated cues and their effects on the jumping behavior of Steinernema siamkayai
Biological ControlEntomopathogenic nematodes are insect parasites with infective juveniles (IJs) employing host-seeking behaviors from ambush to cruise foraging. In ambush-foraging species, IJs often exhibit jumping behavior for attachment to host insects.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Clinical safety issues of measles, mumps and rubella vaccines
Bulletin of the World Health Organization, 2000 The clinical safety of measles and measles-mumps-rubella vaccines has been questioned in recent reports that propose a possible link between measles virus or measles vaccines and the occurrence of juvenile Crohn disease and autism.

Soybean domestication and lead stress on plant–herbivore–parasitoid interactions
Biological ControlPlant domestication and soil heavy metal pollution alter plant–insect interactions and influence bottom-up and top-down effects. However, their combined effect on plants, herbivores, and parasitoids remains unclear.
