The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 6, Page 1741-1753, March 2026.The bacterial dynamin‐like protein DynA from Bacillus subtilis plays a key role in phage defense. It binds the plasma membrane through a unique paddle domain in its D1 subunit. This membrane association is essential for its protective function, likely preventing explosive membrane rupture following phage infection.

Genes to Cells, Volume 31, Issue 2, March 2026.In the giant Pleurodeles waltl genome, introns serve as “structural buffers,” absorbing transposable elements (TEs) to protect coding exons. While this enables “gene body inflation,” persistent TE accumulation eventually leads to transcriptional silencing and functional collapse, or “burst,” of the gene architecture.

From bacterial predators to partners: phages in agriculture
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 2729-2735, March 2026.Summary Bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, are critical players for shaping the taxonomic and functional composition of plant‐associated microbiomes. Yet, their roles in plant health remain overlooked, along with their implications for sustainable agriculture.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1428-1445, March 2026.ABSTRACT The plant cuticle, composed of cutin and wax, is crucial for reducing non‐stomatal water loss and enhancing drought tolerance. CYP86A genes are key regulators of cutin and wax biosynthesis, yet the mechanisms controlling their expression remain unclear.

The Application of Recombinant Bacteriophages in Pathogenic Bacteria Detection [PDF]
, 2015 致病菌的快速、灵敏、特异性检测对食品质量监管、公共安全、环境卫生监测、细菌致病机理研究、疾病的诊断与治疗等具有重要意义。依靠各种生化反应的传统致病菌检测方法不仅操作复杂、检测周期长，且无法用于检测难培养的致病菌；而以抗原—抗体识别为基础的检测方法需要使用价格昂贵并难以获取的特异性抗体，限制了该方法的适用性。噬菌体是一类以细菌为宿主的病毒，广泛存在于自然界中，种类繁多，能够快速繁殖，对宿主菌具有良好的专一识别性。噬菌体基因组简单且易于改造，目前 ...
