Dapple apple and scar skin apple diseases are closely associated with suppression of anthocyanin biosynthesis and enhancement of suberin biosynthesis. Apple scar skin viroid (ASSVd) infection represses anthocyanin biosynthesis in apple callus. Abstract Apple scar skin viroid (ASSVd) causes dapple and scar skin apple diseases, posing serious threats to ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Fossil fuel reserves are rapidly depleting, while global energy demands continue to rise, prompting researchers to seek sustainable alternatives. Among these, biofuels, particularly biodiesel, stand out as a biocompatible and friendly option. However, biodiesel production via transesterification generates large quantities of glycerol (GOL) as a by ...

Homoisoflavonoids—From Natural Specificity and Biosynthesis to Precision Health‐Promoting Mechanisms
Homoisoflavonoids are rare flavonoids with a unique bi‐aromatic oxygen‐heterocyclic structure. This review synthesizes their structure–activity relationships in anti‐inflammatory, hypoglycemic, and anticancer contexts. By highlighting their specific natural distribution and outlining biosynthetic pathways, it provides a conceptual framework and ...

Uniqueness of Supramolecular Systems
Thanks to the variety of classes of supramolecular systems, they have been widely used in various applications. For example, in sensing devices, catalysis, and biomedicine. An example of a conventional photovoltaic material converted into electrical energy. Selective UV or NIR absorbers are required to produce materials with low or no coloration.

Quality control of protein import into mammalian mitochondria
Abstract Mitochondrial function depends on the continuous import of hundreds of nuclear‐encoded proteins. Targeting and translocation of mitochondrial proteins is a multistep process that is inherently vulnerable to defects in cytosolic quality control systems as well as perturbations in mitochondrial protein import machinery and organelle function ...

Biomimetic Metallopeptidases for Biomedical Applications: From Modular Design to Disease Treatment
ABSTRACT Biomimetic metallopeptidases, as an emerging class of artificial enzyme systems, have demonstrated tremendous application potential in the biomedical field in recent years. Their core design principle is to rationally control amino acid composition and three‐dimensional conformation so that programmable peptide sequences can efficiently ...

Substrate for Thyroid Hormone Synthesis: Biochemistry, Evolution, and Physiology
Two proposed sequence of events for thyroxine formation in patients expressing mutant thyroglobulin. (A) (1) TSH stimulation drives expression of misfolded TG. (2) Unremitting ER stress. (3) Stress‐induced cell death. (4) Dead thyrocytes release their contents. (5) The contents become iodinated. (6) Forming thyroxine.
