A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

PCR-Based Genotyping of Zebrafish Genetic Mutants

open access: yesBio-Protocol
Zebrafish genetic mutants have emerged as a valuable model system for studying various aspects of disease and developmental biology. Mutant zebrafish embryos are generally identified based on phenotypic defects at later developmental stages, making it ...

Developmental biology of wood formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The wood-forming vascular cambium is responsible for the production of a large part of the biomass on this planet. Yet, there is only limited knowledge on how cell proliferation and differentiation in the cambial meristem are regulated.

Without magic bullets: the biological basis for public health interventions against protein folding disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Protein folding disorders of aging like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases currently present intractable medical challenges. 'Small molecule' interventions - drug treatments - often have, at best, palliative impact, failing to alter

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Genetically Encoded Fluorescent Indicator GRAPHIC Delineates Intercellular Connections

open access: yesiScience, 2019
Summary: Intercellular contacts are essential for precise organ morphogenesis, function, and maintenance; however, spatiotemporal information of cell-cell contacts or adhesions remains elusive in many systems.

Vascular regeneration in a basal chordate is due to the presence of immobile, bi-functional cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The source of tissue turnover during homeostasis or following injury is usually due to proliferation of a small number of resident, lineage-restricted stem cells that have the ability to amplify and differentiate into mature cell types.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

miR-424(322)~503 impairs colon cancer progression driven by PTEN deficiency

open access: yesCell Death and Disease
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide, with molecular subtypes and signaling pathways playing critical roles in its progression.

A reanalysis of mouse ENCODE comparative gene expression data [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/5ez]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2015
Recently, the Mouse ENCODE Consortium reported that comparative gene expression data from human and mouse tend to cluster more by species rather than by tissue.
