Subversion of Atypical Mucin Traps by a Spore‐Coat Effector Blocks Cellular Immunity in Drosophila

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
While the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium robertsii can evade insect humoral immunity, its subversion of cellular defenses is still elusive. We identify Eac1 as a spore‐coat protein essential for infecting drosophilids by targeting atypical mucins (Sgf1 and Sgf2), which can entrap spores in a gel matrix and thereby facilitate hemocyte encapsulation.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Local solvent organization is shown to govern supramolecular chirality by selecting distinct chiral assembly pathways. A subtle change in water‐DMSO composition reverses the helical sense of a chiral perylene bisimide, while heating induces an irreversible thermal inversion to a more stable enantiomorph.
