Impact of soil warming and shading on colonization and community structure of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in roots of a native grassland [PDF]
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi have a major influence on the structure, responses and below-ground C allocation of plant communities. Our lack of understanding of the response of AM fungi to factors such as light and temperature is an obstacle to ...

Actinorhodin Biosynthesis Terminates with an Unprecedented Biaryl Coupling Reaction
The last dimerization step of actinorhodin (ACT) biosynthesis was established through biochemical studies. ActVA‐ORF4 is a unique NAD(P)H‐dependent enzyme that catalyzes the biaryl‐coupling reaction using 8‐hydroxydihydrokalafungin (DHK‐OH) as the sole substrate. ActVA‐ORF3 is a quinone‐forming enzyme that forms DHK‐OH and ACT.

Interactions of Fungi with Concrete: Significant Importance for Bio-Based Self-Healing Concrete [PDF]
The goal of this study is to explore a new self-healing concept in which fungi are used as a self-healing agent to promote calcium mineral precipitation to fill the cracks in concrete. An initial screening of different species of fungi has been conducted. Fungal growth medium was overlaid onto cured concrete plate.

Genome-scale phylogenetic analysis finds extensive gene transfer among Fungi [PDF]
Although the role of lateral gene transfer is well recognized in the evolution of bacteria, it is generally assumed that it has had less influence among eukaryotes. To explore this hypothesis we compare the dynamics of genome evolution in two groups of organisms: Cyanobacteria and Fungi.

CPL‐Diff: A Diffusion Model for De Novo Design of Functional Peptide Sequences with Fixed Length
This study presents a diffusion model for generating functional peptide sequence lengths using mask control. The model can generate antimicrobial, antifungal, and antiviral peptides with specific lengths on demand. The model learns the structure of peptides better and generates peptides with better physicochemical properties, and the model has good ...
