Quest for space: Tenacity of DNA, Protein, and Lipid macromolecules in intracellular crowded environment

Biomolecular Concepts
The biochemical processes in the cellular milieu involving biomacromolecular interaction usually occur in crowded and heterogeneous environments, impacting their structure, stability, and reactivity.

Graph identification of proteins in tomograms (GRIP‐Tomo) 2.0: Topologically aware classification for proteins

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Cryo‐electron tomography (cryo‐ET) enables structural characterization of biomolecules under near‐native conditions. Existing approaches for interpreting the resulting three‐dimensional volumes are computationally expensive and have difficulty interpreting density associated with small proteins/complexes.

The evolutionary origins of streptophyte multicellularity

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2365-2383, September 2026.
The phylogeny of streptophytes and the deep origin of branching filamentous growth. Summary Over their more than 1 billion years of evolutionary history, streptophytes have repeatedly transitioned between unicellular, simple multicellular and complex multicellular forms.

Desiccation tolerance mechanisms in the green lineage and beyond

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 6, Page 3159-3175, September 2026.
Ancient origin and recurrent evolution of desiccation tolerance in the green lineage. Summary Water is essential for life on Earth, yet some plants can survive the near‐complete loss of cellular water, a trait known as desiccation tolerance. Although rare in vegetative tissues of vascular plants, desiccation tolerance is scattered across the plant ...

Environmental Impact of Synthetic Cell Technology: Review of Life Cycle Assessment Data for Feedstocks and Production Methods

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
Synthetic cells are positioned as enablers of green technology. But what is known about the environmental impact of synthetic cell production? In this review, we examine drivers of greenhouse gas emissions, toxicity, and other environmental impact categories of synthetic cell components.

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 15, Page 2154-2174, August 2026.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This
