Conkazal‐M1 from the MKAVA family of conotoxins: A dual‐function protease inhibitor and neuroactive peptide

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Marine cone snails produce a diverse array of bioactive peptides, known as conotoxins, in their venom. Given their high target potency and specificity, conotoxins are attractive compounds for the development of precision research tools and pharmacological agents.

Conned by the enemy: the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae lures and kills Drosophila suzukii

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 4595-4606, May 2026.
Highly pathogenic isolates of Metarhizium anisopliae attracted Drosophila suzukii. Identifying the responsible compounds for this attraction could help the development of these isolates for pest monitoring and overall pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Drosophila suzukii, commonly known as spotted wing drosophila (SWD), is a highly invasive and ...

Sero‐Epidemiology and Molecular Detection of Bluetongue Virus in Goats in Bangladesh

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
The first large‐scale study in Bangladesh confirmed bluetongue virus infection in goats through combined c‐ELISA and nested RT‐PCR approaches, revealing high seroprevalence and identifying key management‐related risk factors. ABSTRACT Background Bluetongue (BT) is an arthropod‐transmitted, non‐contagious viral disease of domestic ruminants caused by ...

Gap Analysis of Metabolic Conversions of Off‐Flavors and Antinutrients in Plant‐Based Substrates

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT To drastically reduce the carbon footprint of the food production chain, a major shift towards alternatives to conventional meat and dairy products is required. The use of plant‐based proteins is a promising route, but it also comes with challenges: Plant‐based proteins often contain antinutritional factors and off‐flavors, which can ...
