Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

The fungicide pyraclostrobin affects gene expression by altering the DNA methylation pattern in Magnaporthe oryzae

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionRice blast disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae has long been the main cause of rice (Oryza sativa L.) yield reduction worldwide. The quinone external inhibitor pyraclostrobin is widely used as a fungicide to effectively control the spread of

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

The miR164e–NAC32 module orchestrates maize plant height via post-translational regulation of DELLA protein stability

Plant Communications
Optimization of plant architecture requires precise regulation of internode elongation; however, the post-translational mechanisms that integrate microRNA and phytohormone signaling remain poorly understood. Here, we describe a hierarchical miR164e–NAC32–

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Leaf ethylene and auxin act as core factors in the regulation of temperature on thidiazuron-induced cotton defoliation

Industrial Crops and Products
The defoliant thidiazuron is applied worldwide to enhance the fiber quality of machine-harvested cotton, and its efficiency is profoundly regulated by temperature. However, little is known about how the temperature after defoliant application affects the

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Regulating sink-source ratio optimizes cotton defoliation efficiency during the early-to-mid flowering and boll stages

Industrial Crops and Products
The sink-source relationship significantly influences chemical defoliation in cotton. However, studies on the effects of sink-source manipulations at different phenological stages remain limited.

Epigenetic reprogramming of lineage switching in cancer

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer cells rarely commit to a single identity. Epigenetic mechanisms and tumor microenvironment cues push epithelial cells toward flexible, hybrid states that can shift into mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, or stem‐like fates, driving metastasis, drug resistance, and tumor heterogeneity. Targeting the epigenetic regulators behind these transitions, using
