Pseudoassembly of k-mers

open access: yes
Abstract We introduce a pseudoassembly approach to identifying variation in sets of genomic sequences via colored de Bruijn graphs. Our pseudoassembly method is implemented in a program called klue that assembles k-mers into sequences compatible with a variant-aware extension of ...

Remote Residue Substitution and Macrocyclization Preorganize a β‐Hairpin Peptide and Enhance β‐Catenin Binding

open access: yesChemistryEurope, Volume 4, Issue 9, September 2026.
A single amino acid substitution combined with peptide macrocyclization enhances the affinity of a β‐hairpin peptide for the oncogenic protein β‐catenin. Crystallographic and molecular dynamics analyses reveal that solution‐state preorganization through β‐hairpin stabilization, rather than direct protein contacts, is responsible for the increased ...

Reference‐Guided Chromosome‐Scale Genome Assembly With Insights on Population Genomics of the Atlantic Goliath Grouper (Epinephelus itajara), Islas del Rosario, Colombia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We present a high‐quality chromosome‐level genome assembly and population genomic analysis of the critically endangered Goliath grouper (Epinephelus itajara) using PacBio HiFi and Illumina sequencing technologies. The 1.12 Gb genome assembly showed high contiguity and identified 22,692 protein‐coding genes, while comparative analyses revealed conserved

The C‐Type Lectin Mincle Serves as a Pattern Recognition Receptor for the Lipid Envelope of Human Cytomegalovirus

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 9, September 2026.
Whether viral lipids can directly interact with pattern recognition receptors to modulate antiviral immune responses remains unclear. We show that Mincle‐dependent recognition of HCMV viral particles induces proinflammatory cytokine production in primary human macrophages.

Foundation Models for Microbiome Research: From Sequence Semantics to Community Dynamics and Multimodal World Models

open access: yesAdvanced Genetics, Volume 7, Issue 3, September 2026.
Microbiome foundation models are framed as a multiscale route from sequence semantics to community ecology, multimodal alignment and future world models. By learning transferable representations across cohorts, habitats and perturbations, this roadmap highlights how microbiome AI can move beyond association‐driven analysis toward interpretable ...

A New Paradigm: 46 Structural Cell Types Function as Environment‐Supporting Innate Immune Cells, With Endothelial and Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells as Key Prototypes

open access: yesiNew Medicine, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The scope, organization, and biological significance of innate immune functions across structural cell types remain poorly defined. To address these fundamental knowledge gaps, we analyzed experimental data of transcriptomes generated by our group and others.

Predicting the Toxicity of Chemical Compounds via Hyperdimensional Computing

open access: yesMolecular Informatics, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
Hyperdimensional computing converts text representations of chemical structures (SMILES) into high‐dimensional vectors. New compounds are classified by comparison with learned toxic and nontoxic reference patterns; across 12 Tox21 targets, overlapping four‐character SMILES patterns performed best among tested representations, supporting fast ...

Adult Blow Flies Host Diverse Carrion‐Associated Microbiomes

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) perform important yet often overlooked roles in ecosystems as decomposers, pollinators and vectors of disease. Central to these functions are their associations with microbial communities, which are maintained through close contact with diverse microbe‐rich substrates such as carrion, dung and flowers.
