Acetylation Activity and Specificity of Peptidoglycan Deacetylase BsPdaC Acting in Reverse on Chitooligosaccharides

ChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 10, 27 May 2026.
Bacillus subtilis PdaC is the first peptidoglycan deacetylase able to act in reverse, acetylating a glucosamine oligomer (chitopentaose) with a pattern of acetylation mirroring the natural deacetylation reaction with unique final regioselectivity, acetylating all but the reducing end of D5.

Construction of an Integrated Janus PVA/EW Hybrid Membrane via Unidirectional Nanopore Dehydration for Synergistic Periodontal Regeneration

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 5, May 2026.
A Janus PVA/egg white (PVA/EW) hybrid membrane is constructed via a facile, green unidirectional nanopore dehydration (UND) technology. This one‐step process creates an integrated bilayer: a dense layer that blocks fibroblasts, and a bioactive porous layer enriched with EW.

At the nexus of three kingdoms: the genome of the mycorrhizal fungus Gigaspora margarita provides insights into plant, endobacterial and fungal interactions. [PDF]

, 2020
As members of the plant microbiota, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF, Glomeromycotina) symbiotically colonize plant roots. AMF also possess their own microbiota, hosting some uncultivable endobacteria.

Epigenetic regulation of mycorrhizal symbioses: from plastic responses to transgenerational legacies

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1438-1452, May 2026.
Summary Mycorrhizal symbioses represent one of the most widespread and ecologically significant plant–microbe interactions, shaping plant nutrition, stress resilience, and ecosystem functioning. Beyond their role in nutrient exchange and systemic defense, growing evidence suggests that these symbioses also influence plant plasticity within and across ...
