Conserved dimerization architecture in C‐type lectins from virus‐vector mosquitoes
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.C‐type lectins (CTLs) are involved in the detection of viral/microbial carbohydrates. We studied a family of soluble CTLs in the mosquito Aedes aegypti, which acts as a vector for viruses like dengue and Zika. Using crystallography, biophysics, and structure prediction approaches, we found that these proteins consistently pair together in the same ...

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Athe_2052 is an ABC transporter substrate‐binding protein that recognizes xyloglucan heptasaccharide (XXXG), a soluble breakdown product of plant xyloglucan. The crystal structure of Athe_2052, together with binding assays and computational modeling, shows how XXXG is recognized by this sugar transporter.

Development of an Artificial Liquid Diet for Allelochemical Delivery in Lycorma delicatula
Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula White (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae), is an invasive phloem‐feeding planthopper native to Asia, which poses a growing threat to US agriculture due to its broad host range and rapid spread since its 2014 detection. To better understand how L.

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.Abstract Green macroalgae from the Ulva genus are rich in polysaccharides of interest, including ulvan, starch, and cellulose. However, their content and structure are impacted by environmental factors, which poses challenges for industrial applications, especially in the context of climate change.

Systemic, Lifestyle and Environmental Modifying Factors in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.A variety of impacting factors in the pathogenesis of periodontitis exist, including systemic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. This review highlights the manifold mechanistic aspects of the link between the pathogenesis of periodontitis, addressing these numerous factors to supplement the long‐standing knowledge of the progression of the disease.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Proposed model of metabolic convergence on the target of rapamycin (TOR) pathway in Cryphonectria parasitica. Twelve core genes involved in diverse metabolic pathways act as upstream regulators or downstream effectors of TOR kinase. Dysregulation of these genes mimics an inhibited TOR state, leading to restricted hyphal growth and enhanced trehalose ...
