Chitin Translocation Is Functionally Coupled with Synthesis in Chitin Synthase
International Journal of Molecular SciencesChitin, an extracellular polysaccharide, is synthesized by membrane-embedded chitin synthase (CHS) utilizing intracellular substrates. The mechanism of the translocation of synthesized chitin across the membrane to extracellular locations remains unresolved.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Under endoplasmic reticulum stress, cells activate the unfolded protein response (UPR). During the UPR, the cohesin complex at the promoter of cell proliferation‐related genes undergoes K29‐linked ubiquitination, recruiting the cohesin release factor WAPL to release cohesin, leading to transcriptional downregulation and inhibition of cell growth ...

Mechanochemical Synthesis of Recyclable Biohybrid Polymer Networks Using Whole Biomass
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A novel mechanochemical method is developed to transform raw biomass, such as whole‐cell algae, into strong and ductile plastics by combining it with synthetic components. These biohybrid materials can be adapted, remolded, or depolymerized over multiple cycles due to the underlying dynamic covalent polymer network.
