Virtual Screening of Bacteriocins From Lactic Acid Bacteria Against Monkeypox DNA Polymerase: Sakacin P and Mundticin KS Emerge as Promising Candidates

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study employs an in silico virtual screening workflow to evaluate lactic acid bacteria (LAB)‐derived bacteriocins as potential inhibitors of the monkeypox virus DNA polymerase (MPDP). Protein‐peptide docking simulations using the HADDOCK platform revealed that Sakacin P and Mundticin KS possess the highest binding affinities for the MPDP target ...

From Mycosynthesis to Immunomodulation: Exploring the Safety, Adjuvant Potential and Microbiota Impact of Biogenic Silver Nanoparticles

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
Mycosynthesized silver nanoparticles from fungal strains act as safe, biocompatible vaccine adjuvants. They enhance immune responses in mice, promoting strong, dose‐dependent IgG2a polarization with minimal toxicity and limited gut microbiota disruption, highlighting their potential as versatile next‐generation platforms for subunit vaccine development.

In Vitro SDHI Fungicide Insensitivity and Mutations in Sdh, β‐Tubulin and Cyp51 of Clarireedia spp., Causing Dollar Spot in Turfgrass in Georgia, USA

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
Amino acid substitutions R61K and E63A in SdhD gene and E198A in β‐tubulin gene in Clarireedia spp., causal agent of dollar spot in turfgrass, were linked to reduced boscalid and thiophanate‐methyl sensitivity, respectively. ABSTRACT Dollar spot, caused by Clarireedia spp., diminishes turf quality, affecting both aesthetics and sport playability on the
