Advanced Materials, Volume 36, Issue 31, August 1, 2024.A palladium hydride (PdHx) film, fabricated on titanium implants, exhibits a lattice capable of capturing protons within the bacterial microenvironment, consequently inducing bacterial death. Furthermore, it mimics human antioxidant systems, reshaping the osteogenic immune microenvironment and promoting osteogenesis.

De‐nitrosylation Coordinates Appressorium Function for Infection of the Rice Blast Fungus
Advanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 26, July 10, 2024.Nitric oxide (NO) is essential for Magnaporthe oryzae development and stress response. This research reveals that GSNOR‐mediated de‐nitrosylation is vital for appressorium formation and crucial for fungal infection. Proteomic analysis identifies a broad S‐nitrosylation network, with GSNOR regulating key proteins for infection.

Litchi postharvest physiology and handling
Crop Science, Volume 64, Issue 4, Page 2014-2063, July/August 2024.Abstract Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) fruit, with its bright red color and sweet and juicy aril, is an important fruit crop in Asia, Africa, Australia, and South America. A major cause of the postharvest loss of litchi fruit is browning and decay.

Mechanisms of iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis in eukaryotes [PDF]
, 2023 Many essential cellular proteins use iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters as cofactors. These proteins often serve as enzymes, components of the electron-transport chain or as intracellular sensors.

Effect of mitochondrially targeted vitamin E on oxidative stress and obesity development in C57BL/6 mice [PDF]
, 2009 It was reported that mitochondrial aconitase was particularly susceptible to oxidative damage among those mitochondrial proteins because the electrophilicity of the fourth labile iron atom in its labile iron–sulfur cluster renders it especially sensitive
