A New Classification Framework to Understand Evolutionary Transitions in Individuality
Classifying biological entities based on whether and how the two fundamental aspects physiological and evolutionary components are represented yields six types of structural organization. The resulting framework allows to compare different forms of organization, and, in this way, provides insight into the evolutionary processes giving rise to these ...

Seamless and Highly Efficient Site‐directed Mutagenesis for Protein, RNA, and Plasmid Engineering
Abstract Site‐directed mutagenesis is indispensable for protein, RNA, and plasmid engineering. It is ideal to carry out such mutagenesis at an efficiency close to 100%, but many current methods fail to reach this goal and thus require extensive screening efforts.

Novel nanoparticle‐mediated plasmid delivery in bacteria for difficult applications
Abstract BACKGROUND This study presents the development and application of magnetite/silver‐pDMAEMA‐PEG‐BUFII nanobioconjugates as an advanced plasmid delivery system in bacteria. These nanobioconjugates demonstrated superior efficiency compared to traditional methods in four challenging applications: (i) genomic editing in Gram‐positive bacteria; (ii)

Mapping protein–protein interactions by mass spectrometry
Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are essential for numerous biological activities, including signal transduction, transcription control, and metabolism. They play a pivotal role in the organization and function of the proteome, and their perturbation is associated with various diseases, such as cancer, neurodegeneration, and infectious ...
