How Proton Incorporation Reshapes Lattice Dynamics In BaSnO3‐Type Proton Conductors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Yttrium‐doped BaSnO3 exhibits isotope‐dependent changes in its low‐energy vibrational density of states upon hydration. Comparison of dry, H2O‐, and D2O‐treated samples re‐veals mass‐dependent phonon renormalization linked to proton dynamics near oxygen va‐cancies, providing experimental insight into hydrogen‐coupled lattice excitations in proton ...

Assembly of nitrogenase biosynthetic pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by using polyprotein strategy

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Nitrogenase in some bacteria and archaea catalyzes conversion of N2 to ammonia. To reconstitute a nitrogenase biosynthetic pathway in a eukaryotic host is still a challenge, since synthesis of nitrogenase requires a large number of nif (nitrogen fixation)

PII protein is essential for transcriptional regulation of anf gene cluster for iron-only nitrogenase in Rhodopseudomonas palustris

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
In addition to catalyzing the biological nitrogen fixation, iron-only (Fe-only) nitrogenase is also able to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) to formate (HCOO−) and methane (CH4).

Microbiome‐mediated plant‐soil feedbacks as a tool for resilient agriculture

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Translating plant‐soil feedbacks (PSFs) into reliable agricultural management requires shifting from input‐dependent practices toward endogenous, process‐driven crop resilience. To bridge this gap, we propose a predictive framework centered on three strategic interventions: engineering the crop holobiont, diversifying the soil habitat, and deploying ...

The plant microbiome: From ecological foundations to precision microbial engineering for sustainable agriculture

iMeta, EarlyView.
From ecological principles to precision engineering of plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture. The plant holobiont integrates diverse microbial niches (including rhizosphere, endosphere, phyllosphere, seed, and aerial‐root mucilagesphere), host genetics (namely M genes), and host metabolites. Furthermore, molecular dialogues, including rhizobial
