Detecting Antibiotic Resistance in Strains of Selected Gram‐Negative Bacterial Species Using Raman Spectroscopy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Raman spectroscopy successfully identified antibiotic‐resistant Gram‐negative strains. Resistant strains of four bacterial species were discriminated from sensitive ones with 99.1% accuracy using PLS regression. The method allows for rapid, label‐free detection of antibiotic resistance.

A universal and wide-range cytosine base editor via domain-inlaid and fidelity-optimized CRISPR-FrCas9

Nature Communications
CRISPR-based base editor (BE) offer diverse editing options for genetic engineering of microorganisms, but its application is limited by protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) sequences, context preference, editing window, and off-target effects.

Citrus depressa peel extract and its polymethoxyflavones mitigate acetaminophen‐induced chronic liver injury in mice through antioxidant activation, epigenetic regulation, and gut microbiota modulation

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Preventing chronic liver damage is essential for maintaining overall health and reducing the risk of serious liver diseases. Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose can lead to severe liver damage due to oxidative stress, and citrus fruits are rich in bioactive compounds that may have health benefits.

RNA degradomics and proteomics reveal the mechanism of dsProsβ1‐mediated proteasome targeting in Psylliodes chrysocephala

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
RNA degradomics revealed dsProsβ1‐derived siRNA‐mediated mRNA cleavage events, mainly at uracil‐guanine and adenine‐adenine pairs. Proteasome inhibition via dsProsβ1 increased mitochondrial and cytoskeletal proteins while reducing translation‐related and mRNA‐binding proteins.

Native Label‐Free Spectral Biochemical Fingerprinting of an Enveloped Mammalian RNA Virus Reveals Mode of Action of a Virucidal Drug

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Deep‐Ultraviolet Resonance Raman (DUVRR) spectroscopy is introduced as a label‐free, non‐invasive analytical workflow for the biochemical fingerprinting of enveloped viruses. By integrating bottom‐up stoichiometric reconstruction with top‐down biochemical extraction, this strategy accurately disentangles complex viral compositions in physiological‐like

How We Simulate Nanopores

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Nanopore technology has revolutionized single‐molecule sensing, yet it suffers from an inherent interpretive challenge. Molecular dynamics has emerged as a go‐to method for determining the relationship between the structure of translocating molecules and the nanopore current signals.

Structural and molecular basis of specialized translation mediated by the ribosome mRNA-binding channel

Nature Communications
The ribosome mRNA channel is central to translation, yet its role in regulatory mechanisms remains unclear. Using cryo-EM of human ribosomal complexes bound to Kozak and TISU mRNAs from wild-type (WT) and RPS26/eS26 mutant (RPS26dC) cells, we demonstrate

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.

Museomics Deciphers the Phylogeographic Differentiation and Conservation Status of a Montane Pheasant

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Museum specimens provide a rich source of historical DNA, enabling insights into phylogenetic relationships and demographic history of the endangered Koklass Pheasant. Our findings uncovered a previously unrecognized population in Guizhou province and highlighted elevated extinction risk in populations from Anhui province and Southern China, informing ...
