This study investigated the dietary composition of Sycanus bifidus, a generalist predator of the assassin bug that is artificially released into citrus orchards, and uncovered its trophic structure across various pest species using metabarcoding‐based molecular gut content analysis.

Host species emerge as a significant contributor to interspecies variations in the gut microbiota of desert‐dwelling amphibians and reptiles, illustrating phylosymbiosis among the studied species. Geographical factors partially account for interpopulation variations in the gut microbiota of Bufotes pewzowi and Teratoscincus przewalskii, with parallel ...

‘Candidatus Phytoplasma (Ca. P.) solani’ is associated with bois noir (BN) of grapevine and stolbur of solanaceous plants and is primarily transmitted by Hyalesthes obsoletus Signoret. Four tuf‐a and five tuf‐b1 ‘Ca. P. solani’ strains were transmitted to tomato plants (cv. Micro‐Tom) by using bait‐plants and by capturing H.

ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to assess biochemical differences in peri‐implant crevicular fluid (PICF) using ATR‐FTIR spectroscopy and multivariate analysis, through a between‐participant comparison of healthy and peri‐implantitis (PI) sites, and a within‐participant comparison of PI‐PICF and GCF from contralateral periodontal healthy teeth ...

Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation in Major Hallmarks of Cancer
Aberrant condensates formed through phase separation are involved in the dysregulation of various critical cellular processes, including genome stability, transcriptional regulation and signal transduction, thereby promoting malignant transformation and the acquisition of multiple cancer hallmarks.

AAV's widespread application is currently confronting critical challenges. This study established a systematic framework of ‘natural discovery–evolutionary analysis–functional optimization’, providing a new paradigm for the development of next‐generation AAV vectors with clinical‐grade tissue specificity, low immunogenicity, and cross‐species ...

Human FASTK preferentially binds single‐stranded and G‐rich RNA
Although FASTK is known to play a role in mRNA biology, the mechanism through which it recognizes RNA has yet to be unraveled. Here, we used purified human FASTK to characterize its RNA‐binding properties in vitro. We found that FASTK prefers ssRNA oligonucleotides containing guanines with the potential to form G‐quadruplexes and binds robustly to any ...

SARS‐CoV‐2 nucleocapsid protein variants have differential RNA chaperone activity
The SARS‐CoV‐2 nucleocapsid (N) protein facilitates RNA annealing through its RBD–IDR2–CTD region, identifying it as a functional RNA chaperone. The Omicron BA.5 variant shows reduced chaperone activity compared to the Wuhan wild‐type protein. Although phosphorylation has no effect on wild‐type N, phosphomimetic modification of BA.5 N restores its RNA ...
