Divergent gut microbial metabolism supports niche partitioning in giant and red pandas
Frontiers in MicrobiologyIntroductionThe gut microbiota plays a pivotal role in regulating the host's physiological functions and behavior. The coevolutionary relationship between the host and its gut microbiota facilitates adaptation to specific ecological niches.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Sarcopenia and frailty are complex geriatric syndromes influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent studies suggest that specific genetic variants, DNA methylation patterns and shortened telomeres are associated with age‐related diseases and might contribute to the development of both sarcopenia and frailty. In this

The Curious Case of CysE: Diversity and Distribution of Serine Acetyltransferases in Bacteria
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 1092-1103, May 2026.ABSTRACT Serine acetyltransferase (CysE) is a member of the left‐handed β‐helix family of acetyltransferases that catalyze the rate limiting step in de novo cysteine biosynthesis. There are two isoforms of CysE that differ in length, with the shorter isoform lacking approximately 76 amino acids at the N‐terminus of the protein from the serine ...

Fascinating single‐cell red algae: models for evolution and adaptation
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1424-1437, May 2026.Summary The unicellular red algae, Cyanidiophyceae, that diverged early during Archaeplastida (algal and plant) evolution, occupy a variety of extreme habitats that are inhospitable for most other eukaryotes. With the use of modern genomics and genetics methods, Cyanidiophyceae show a remarkable taxonomic diversity, share haplodiplophasic life cycles ...
