Carvacrol alters the membrane phospholipids in erythromycin-resistant Streptococcus pyogenes

Phytomedicine Plus
Background: Phospholipids are significant constituents of bacterial membranes. Bacteria can alter their cytoplasmic membrane fatty acid composition in response to changing environmental stress conditions. Carvacrol, a mono-terpenoid phenol, has excellent

Differential effects of lipid composition on the thermal and functional properties of membrane associated CYP2J2

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract CYP2J2 is a membrane‐bound cytochrome P450 that is expressed in cardiomyocytes, where it is known to metabolize arachidonic acid into cardioprotective epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs). It consists of transmembrane domains embedded in the hydrophobic segments of the cell membrane and surrounded by various lipids.

Redundant Glycerol‐3‐Phosphate Acyltransferases Regulate Thermo‐Sensitive Genic Male Sterility in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 4689-4703, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Thermo‐sensitive genic male sterility (TGMS) lines play a pivotal role in two‐line hybrid rice breeding. However, the availability of elite TGMS germplasm remains limited, and the molecular mechanisms underlying fertility transition of TGMS lines are still poorly understood.

A stage‐dependent seed defense response to explain efficient seed transmission of Xanthomonas citri pv. fuscans to common bean

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 3500-3517, July 2026.
Abstract Although seed represents an important means of plant pathogen dispersion, the seed–pathogen dialogue remains largely unexplored. A multiomic approach was performed at different seed developmental stages of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) during asymptomatic colonization by Xanthomonas citri pv.

Enzymatic Prenylation of Proteins and Peptides: From Cysteine S‐Prenylation to Tryptophan‐Selective Biocatalysis

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 24, 23 June 2026.
This review highlights biocatalytic prenylation as a versatile strategy for tailoring the functional properties of peptides and proteins. By comparing branched isoprenoids with linear lipids, we illustrate how specific prenyl architectures modulate the behaviors of lipidated proteins within membrane environments.

Lipidomic study of kidney in a mouse model with urine flow obstruction

Scientific Reports
Obstructed urine flow is known to cause structural and functional kidney damage leading to renal fibrosis. However, limited information is available on the change in kidney lipids during urinary tract obstruction.

Cannabigerol Alleviates Obesity‐Induced Mitochondrial Dysfunction by Cardiolipin Fatty Acid Remodeling

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
Graphical overview of the effects of the high‐fat, high‐sucrose (HFHS) diet regime and 2‐week cannabigerol (CBG) treatment on the intramuscular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) trafficking and lipid metabolism, with subsequent implications for mitochondrial cardiolipin (CL) composition in the red gastrocnemius muscle.

Italian Olfactory Identification Test in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Association of Olfactory Impairment With Chronic Damage and Anti–β2‐Glycoprotein I Antibodies

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.
Objective Olfactory dysfunction is a relatively frequent manifestation in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The Italian Olfactory Identification Test (IOIT) may represent a suitable tool for detecting olfactory impairment in patients with SLE, due to its reliability and easiness of administration.

Isomer Engineering of NIR‐II Aggregation‐Induced Emission for the Theranostics of MRSA‐Induced Abscess

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
This work presents a positional isomer engineering strategy to create a microenvironment‐tolerant NIR‐II AIEgen. The para‐isomer exhibits optimized excited‐state dynamics, enabling potent Type‐I photodynamic activity under hypoxia along with photothermal conversion.
