Homeless migrants’ commoning practices. “Our House” solidarity project in Athens’ Omonoia square

European Journal of Geography
In recent years, Athens has been at the center of the so-called “migration crisis”, as thousands of newcomers have found temporary or permanent refuge in the city.

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

Lifecourse commoning: Retirement and de-alienation in urban gardens

Despite being a unique aspect of ageing in capitalist societies, retirement has been neglected within critical research. As a disruption in people’s relation to the capitalist political economy, retirement can be framed through a productivist lens of ...

Between formality and informality: the role of partnerships to co-create cultural value of industrial heritage

Valori e Valutazioni
Analyzing the cultural value of industrial artefacts is particularly challenging due to lack of recognition as heritage assets and misconceptions related to previous uses and feeling of unwanted heritage.

‘Guide and Prejudice’— How Argonautes recognize targets across domains of life

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Argonaute proteins use short nucleic‐acid guides to locate and regulate specific targets across all domains of life. Despite striking diversity—from human gene silencing to bacterial immune defence—all Argonautes share a conserved three‐stage recognition logic: guide‐directed sampling, progressive target pairing with a conformational checkpoint and ...

Commoning a "Dead" River in Colombia: Assessing Collaborative Research and Curatorial Methodologies through the RÍO BOGOTÁ Project

Alternautas
Emergent scholarship offers generative conceptual frameworks for rethinking human-river relations—such as "river commons" and "riverhood" (Boelens et al., 2023), and hydrocommons cultures (Blackmore, 2022a; 2025b).

Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

"Afterword: After the commons -commoning"

Focaal, 2017
Commoning over time generates customs in common and therefore commonalities. The political mobilizations of the past years may well be understood as a form of urban commoning. However, while such mobilizations may sometimes understand themselves as anticapitalist, one should resist the apparently logical idea (1) that the use values off ered by an ...

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...
