Cas12Fold Accurately Predicts Cas12 Nuclease Structures to Enable Structure‐based Genome‐editing Engineering

open access: yesSmall Structures, EarlyView.
Cas12Fold, a deep‐learning framework tailored to Cas12 nucleases, uses evolutionary signals and iterative structure‐based alignment to resolve conformational complexity. This method outperforms general models in predicting key domains and states, accurately modeling enzymes such as Casλ.

CRISPR typing and phage content of colonizing Group B Streptococci from healthy Egyptian women

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
BackgroundStreptococcus agalactiae or Group B Streptococcus (GBS) causes serious infections in neonates with a particularly high burden of disease in Africa. Maternal vaginal colonization is the primary source of neonatal transmission.

Role of mitochondrial complex I genes in host plant expansion of Bactrocera tau (Tephritidae: Diptera) by CRISPR/Cas9 system

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The role of 3 mitochondrial complex I gene in host expansion of Bactrocera tau was verified by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system. A stable homogenous strain (Btndufa7‐/‐) of B.tau was established after silencing Ndufa7. The reduced size of larvae and pupae of Ndufa7 knockout strain was first found.Then different levels of fitness and relative expression ...

The transformer gene controls sexual development in Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The transformer gene plays a key role in the genetic pathway for sexual development in Drosophila suzukii Abstract The genetic network of sex determination in the model organism Drosophila melanogaster was investigated in great detail. Such knowledge not only advances our understanding of the evolution and regulation of sexual dimorphism in insects ...

Genetic engineering for SIT application: a fruit fly‐focused review

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Sterile insect technique (SIT) has become a key component of efficient pest control. Fruit fly pests from the Drosophilidae and Tephritidae families pose a substantial and overwhelmingly increasing threat to the agricultural industry, aggravated by climate change and globalization among other contributors.

Molecular mechanisms of sex determination in Lepidoptera: current status and perspectives

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The genetic basis of sex determination in Lepidoptera was discovered in 2014 in the silkworm Bombyx mori. In this model species, the W chromosome‐derived small piRNA called Fem piRNA downregulates the expression of a Z‐linked gene, Masculinizer (Masc), which leads to the default female‐specific splicing of the doublesex gene (dsxF) and thus to female ...
