FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Cleavable N‐terminal Thioredoxin fusion enabled soluble expression and purification of otherwise insoluble SARS‐CoV‐2 Nucleocapsid (N) protein. A four‐step purification strategy yielded highly homogeneous, RNA‐free N protein. Binding assays showed high RNA affinity (Kd ~ 28 nm). The study will facilitate high‐resolution structural studies of N protein,

Genetic diversity and population structure of the Taigan dog breed
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The Taigan is a rare sighthound from the mountains of Kyrgyzstan. We used DNA markers to study its genetic diversity and compare it with other sighthound breeds. Our findings show that the Taigan shares close genetic ties with the Kazakh Tazy, suggesting a common ancestry shaped by nomadic traditions and regional adaptation.

Evolution of queen pheromone receptor tuning in four honeybee species (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Apis)
iScienceSummary: Honeybees (genus: Apis) use a plethora of pheromones for intraspecific communication. The primary compound produced by the queen’s mandibular glands, 9-ODA, is involved in mating in all Apis species. It is the ligand of the most highly expressed

Interaction of class III cellobiose dehydrogenase with lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The activity of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) is supported by its auxiliary enzyme cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH). The catalytic activity of both enzymes is coupled by electron transfer and a cyclic cascade generating substrates for both enzymes – hydrogen peroxide for LPMO and oxidized and non‐oxidized cellobiose and cello‐oligosaccharide ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Fervidibacter sacchari is a member of the bacterial phylum Armatimonadota, only a few of which have been cultivated. It is a hyperthermophilic polysaccharide degradation specialist. We show that a secreted enzyme, Fsa02490Xyn, is an endoxylanase belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 10.
