Cryoconite Hole Location in East-Antarctic Untersee Oasis Shapes Physical and Biological Diversity
Antarctic cryoconite holes (CHs) are mostly perennially ice-lidded and sediment-filled depressions that constitute important features on glaciers and ice sheets.

Abstract The nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDK) is a key enzyme that controls the balance of nucleotide pools in all living organisms. Beyond this fundamental role, NDKs exert pleiotropic effects in many cellular processes, including cell development, signal transduction, differentiation, tumor metastasis, and gene expression. The quaternary structure

Atmospheric Microbial Transport to Antarctica and Its Ecological Implications: A Systematic Review
Atmospheric transport to Antarctica operates via long‐range advection, marine aerosolization, and local resuspension, acting as a strict ecological filter. This selective barrier could actively shape local ecosystems by seeding them with functionally distinct, stress‐adapted microbial pioneers capable of surviving extreme conditions.

Metagenomic Insights Into Red Sea Biodiversity Across the Web of Life
Deep‐sequencing shotgun metagenomics of Red Sea benthic sediments reveals biodiversity across the web of life, from viruses to animals. Despite the strong dominance of prokaryotic DNA, low‐abundance eukaryotic reads capture broad taxonomic diversity. Open‐ocean communities are primarily structured by depth, whereas coastal eukaryotic communities follow

Archaeal Tetraether Lipids as Tracers for Past Marine Environmental Change
Abstract Archaea are single‐celled microorganisms that are abundant in marine environments and play a key role in the carbon and nitrogen cycles. Archaea can biosynthesize a wide variety of isoprenoid membrane lipids, including isoprenoid glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraethers (isoGDGTs).

Let There be Light! Light as an Engine and Regulator in Synthetic Cells
Cells are out‐of‐equilibrium systems that regulate their spatiotemporal features. In biomimetic synthetic cells, light offers a unique way for energizing and regulating events in space and time. This review explores the implementation of light‐responsive tools in synthetic cells to replicate biological functions and enable new bioinspired behaviors ...

Cultivation of Electrogens With Cost‐Effective Membrane‐Less Bioreactor Designs
ABSTRACT Rational improvements in bioreactor design for scaling up power generation in microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are discussed in this study. The potential of autoclavable MFCs for isolating electroactive bacteria that produce sustainable electricity is being investigated.
