A horizontally transferred bacterial gene for pantothenic acid biosynthesis regulates diapause and reproduction in the spider mite Amphitetranychus viennensis

Insect Science, EarlyView.
A bacterial‐derived AvPBL gene encoding a pantothenate‐β‐alanine ligase was identified in Amphitetranychus viennensis. RNAi silencing of AvPBL reduced pantothenic acid production, impairing reproduction and diapause induction, while pantothenic acid supplementation rescued these phenotypes.

Matrine–Tea Saponin Synergism Involves Suppressed Detoxification and Digestion in a Leaf Beetle

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Tea saponin and matrine showed synergistic toxicity against Plagiodera versicolora. Combined exposure suppressed digestion‐ and detoxification‐related processes, while silencing the trypsin gene Pver105950 and chitinase gene Pver001190 increased larval susceptibility to tea saponin and matrine, respectively.

Shared dysregulation of complement and phosphorylation pathways in the cerebrospinal fluid of encephalitis, Aicardi–Goutières syndrome, and autism

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To identify shared and disorder‐specific molecular alterations across encephalitis, Aicardi–Goutières syndrome (AGS), and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteomics. Method In this cross‐sectional case–control study, mass‐spectrometry‐based proteomics was performed on archived CSF samples collected between ...

Utilizing chitooligosaccharides from shrimp waste biodegradation via recombinant chitinase A: a promising approach for emulsifying hydrocarbon and bioremediation

Microbial Cell Factories
Background Hydrocarbon pollution stemming from petrochemical activities is a significant global environmental concern. Bioremediation, employing microbial chitinase-based bioproducts to detoxify or remove contaminants, presents an intriguing solution for

Breaking the ice: multiple origins of ice‐binding/antifreeze proteins

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ice‐binding proteins (IBPs) evolved independently in many organisms during Cenozoic cooling and glaciation. In flounders, α‐helical IBPs evolved from an antiviral protein, while similar IBPs arose independently from different progenitors in three other fish lineages.

From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.

Bacteria chitinase production and activity

, 2023
Fungal contamination is a detrimental problem in cell cultures. The use of antimycotic is inefficient due to their short stability in culture and possible influence on cell activities.
