Nanoparticle Immunoadjuvant Complexes Augment Germinal Center Responses to Vaccination

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Scaffolding IL‐21 on the surface of a self‐assembling nanoparticle immunogen drives improved germinal center and humoral immune responses. These nanoparticle immunoadjuvant complexes (NICs) functionally modulate the germinal center driving improved somatic hypermutation and antibody maturation, suggesting this platform has potential utility as a ...

Genome‐Wide Association Analyses Reveal the Genetic Basis of EMS Mutagenesis Efficiency in Rice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on large‐scale screening of 420 rice accessions, GWAS identified the Rc locus as a key regulator of EMS mutagenesis efficiency. Functional Rc alleles enhance both seed survival and genome‐wide mutation frequency by boosting antioxidant enzyme activities (CAT, SOD, POD) and reducing oxidative damage.

Structure‐Guided Engineering of a Promiscuous O‐Methyltransferase for a SAM Regeneration Biocatalysis Platform of Methylated Pharmaceuticals

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A substrate promiscuous and regioselective O‐methyltransferase, SmOMT, is functionally and structurally characterized. A double mutant, SmOMTE152A/I306A, exhibited enhanced catalytic activity. By coupling this mutant with a mutant halide methyltransferase, AtHMTV140T, for SAM regeneration, a superior artificial fusion enzyme, AtHMTV140T‐L95‐SmOMTE152A ...

AI‐Based D‐Amino Acid Substitution for Optimizing Antimicrobial Peptides to Treat Multidrug‐Resistant Bacterial Infection

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study constructed the first D‐amino acid antimicrobial peptide dataset and developed an AI model for efficient screening of substitution sites, with 80% of candidate peptides showing enhanced activity. The lead peptide dR2‐1 demonstrated potent antimicrobial activity in vitro and in vivo, high stability, and low toxicity.

Synergistic Tuning of Conformational Dynamics, Electron Tunneling, and Substrate Positioning Enhances Electron Transfer in a P450 Chimera for Calcifediol Biosynthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A synergistic electron transfer (ET) optimization strategy modulating conformational dynamics, ET pathway, and substrate orientation is proposed for self‐sufficient cytochrome P450s. Guided by this strategy, a P450 variant with improved ET and catalytic efficiency was identified, and the underlying molecular basis was revealed by computational analysis.

Tumor Extracellular Vesicles lncOSLMT Drives Lung Inflammatory Premetastatic Niche Formation in Osteosarcoma via m6A‐Dependent hnRNPA2B1/COX‐2 Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tumor‐derived extracellular vesicles program inflammatory lung premetastatic niches through selective delivery of long noncoding RNAs. This work reveals EVs‐associated lncOSLMT as a key driver of lung fibroblast activation via m6A‐dependent PTGS2 stabilization.
