Unraveling Genetic Relationship and Morphological Divergence of Rasbora tornieri (Ahl, 1922) across Sumatra Island

Journal of Tropical Life Science
Previous research indicates that the genetic diversity of Rasbora tornieri (Ahl, 1922) from the Musi River population in South Sumatra is notably low compared to populations from Borneo.

Directed evolution of enzymes at the crossroads of tradition and innovation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
An iterative cycle of data‐driven enzyme optimization comprising four stages: genetic diversification of a template enzyme, expression of protein variants, high‐throughput evaluation, and machine‐learning‐guided redesign of the next variant library.

Sensors for Antibiotics Susceptibility Testing—Recent Advances

Advanced Sensor Research
The age of antibiotics, which began with the discovery of penicillin in 1929, marks an important period in medical history, as deadly bacterial infections seemed to be a thing of the past.

Thalassemia: genotypes and phenotypes

Annals of Hematology, 1991
The large degree of phenotypic heterogeneity of thalassemia can now be related to the underlying genomic defects. This information has accumulated rapidly over the last years through the recent advances in molecular technology. The list of main types of thalassemia (alpha or beta) that can be differentiated includes several gene deletions (complete or ...

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.

Clinical and Molecular Landscape of Weiss-Kruszka Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review

JCRPE
Weiss-Kruszka syndrome (WSKA; OMIM#618619) is a rare condition with multiple congenital anomalies. This study describes a patient with WSKA from Northern China. The patient was a 9.75-year-old boy who presented with growth retardation (growth velocity: 3-

Yeast Gcn2 retains activity following humanization of its auto‐phosphorylation region

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model to study Gcn2 activation and regulation is limited by the lack of antibodies detecting phosphorylated Gcn2. To overcome this, we engineered Gcn2‐HsC, a yeast Gcn2 variant recognizable by commercial anti‐human phospho‐GCN2 antibodies.

ATZ‐1 promotes DNA replication efficiency to maintain normal meiotic function

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Absence of ATZ‐1 interferes with meiotic DNA replication and cell cycle function via CHK‐1. This causes downstream defects associated with DNA damage and genomic integrity. Taken together, this study suggests that ATZ‐1 influences DNA replication efficiency and cell cycle function to maintain normal meiotic function.

Evolution‐guided yeast complementation reveals functional differences in human PSPH variants

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Ancient genomes can help guide which human genetic variants are tested experimentally. This study applies that idea to PSPH, a gene involved in serine biosynthesis, and uses high‐throughput yeast complementation to compare variant function. The findings reveal measurable differences among selected alleles and illustrate the value of evolution‐guided ...

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...
