Advances in large DNA fragment assembly for microbial cell factory engineering

Quantitative Biology, Volume 14, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract The efficient, rapid, and reliable assembly of DNA fragments is essential for advancing metabolic engineering and synthetic biology. With the rapid advancement of DNA synthesis and assembly technologies, the scale of DNA assembly has expanded from single genes to metabolic pathways and even genomes.

PVT1 lincRNA signals an androgen‐dependent transcriptional activation program of oncogenes in prostate cancer cells

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 1, Page 144-158, 1 July 2026.
What's New? Unraveling the networks that regulate androgen receptor (AR) function is critical to better understanding prostate cancer development and progression. Of particular interest in this regard is the long non‐coding RNA PVT1, which regulates gene expression in cancer and is upregulated in prostate tumors.

Sensing and Reprogramming Surface Receptor Activation With Synthetic Transcriptional Circuits

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
A synthetic receptor‐signalling induced transcription (RESIT) circuit is designed based on receptor activation mediated split protease complementation and release of membrane‐tethered synthetic transcriptional modules. The RESIT system enables probing Ca2+ entry, receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) activities and Ras activation, and reprogramming RTK ...

Peptide Receptor‐Functionalized AuNP‐Embedded Zwitterionic Biopolymeric Nanohydrogel for Electrochemical Sclerostin Sensing

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
We report an electrochemical biosensor that employs biopanning‐derived affinity peptides as selective receptors on a multifunctional chitosan–zwitterionic–gold nanoparticle (CS–ZI–AuNPs) nanohydrogel interface. The CS–ZI–AuNPs nanohydrogel exhibits antifouling properties, abundant sites for stable peptide immobilization, and efficient electrochemical ...

Repurpose an FDA‐Approved Antibody Using DARPin‐Scaffolded Bridge Protein

Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2026.
The cell line and scalable upstream/downstream process development needed for every new monoclonal antibody are both highly expensive and time‐consuming, significantly increasing the cost of new antibody therapeutics. By contrast, the production of many synthetic binders can be accomplished rapidly and with lower production costs.

Traits Explain Canopy Tree Occurrence Along Regional Environmental Gradients: A Subset Combine to Be Useful

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our paper addresses the problem of “How to predict where a tree can be found from its traits?” We show that wood density, bark thickness, maximum height and seed mass combine for a useful model of tree distributions. ABSTRACT Trait‐Species Distribution Models (trait‐SDM) help to understand the importance of plant strategies to niches, assess their ...

The Structure of the Chemotype Determining Locus in Cannabis sativa

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The chemical phenotype (chemotype) of Cannabis sativa is defined by the ratio of cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) to Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA). Although the Mendelian segregation of these traits suggests a single‐locus biallelic system, recent sequencing and phylogenetic evidence indicate they are encoded by two distinct, tightly linked ...
