Identification of genomic regions associated with partial resistance to Aphanomyces root rot in pea

The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Root rot caused by Aphanomyces euteiches is a major concern in pea (Pisum sativum L.). The lack of other effective control strategies makes crucial the development of resistant varieties. Although partial resistance has been reported, its quantitative inheritance, the association of resistance‐linked genomic regions with unfavorable agronomic ...

Beneficial effects of Glc-1,6-P2 modulation on mutant phosphomannomutase-2

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research
The metabolite Glucose-1,6-bisphosphate (Glc-1,6-P2) plays a vital role in human metabolism, and is a crucial activator and stabilizer for phosphomannomutase-2 (PMM2) - mutations within this protein propagate the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation (PMM2-CDG).

Unveiling Host Interactions and Evolutionary Constraints of a Novel Bacteriophage Infecting Xanthomonas hortorum pv. vitians

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
A transposon insertion sequencing approach revealed that the novel phage ΦXhv‐1 targets Xanthomonas hortorum pv. vitians through LPS O‐antigen recognition. Mutations in LPS conferring phage resistance reduce bacterial motility and virulence, highlighting a trade‐off that may naturally constrain resistance development and support the sustainable phage ...

Six New Cases of 22q13.2 Gain Including TFC20: First Report of Triplication and Smallest Duplication Associated With Neurodevelopmental Delays

Clinical Genetics, Volume 108, Issue 6, Page 731-741, December 2025.
This study reports six new cases of 22q13.2 duplication and triplication, including the TCF20 gene, associated with neurodevelopmental disorders and various morphological and systemic abnormalities. The findings suggest a variable expressivity, but their complete penetrance remains uncertain compared to well‐established loss‐of‐function variants ...

Congenital disorder of glycosylation type Ia in a Chinese family: Function analysis of a novel PMM2 complex heterozygosis mutation

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports
Congenital disorder of glycosylation type Ia (CDG-Ia) is an autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by a mutation in the phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) gene. We have identified a 13-month-old boy who has been diagnosed with CDG-Ia.

Molecular genetic analysis of phosphomannomutase genes in Triticum monococcum

Crop Journal, 2015
In higher plants, phosphomannomutase (PMM) is essential for synthesizing the antioxidant ascorbic acid through the Smirnoff–Wheeler pathway. Previously, we characterized six PMM genes (TaPMM-A1, A2, B1, B2, D1 and D2) in common wheat (Triticum aestivum ...

Optimizing (Bio) Catalysis with Liquid‐Liquid Phase Separation Systems

ChemSystemsChem, Volume 7, Issue 6, November 2025.
This review highlights how LLPS creates membraneless compartments involved in different scenarios in nature. It further explores different examples that focus on the development of synthetic coacervates that enhance catalytic efficiency by concentrating reactants, or by the direct influence of the coacervates building blocks themselves.

Repurposing the aldose reductase inhibitor and diabetic neuropathy drug epalrestat for the congenital disorder of glycosylation PMM2-CDG

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2019
Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency, or PMM2-CDG, is the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation and affects over 1000 patients globally. There are no approved drugs that treat the symptoms or root cause of PMM2-CDG.

Attenuated Strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa: A Promising Cell Factory for Rhamnolipid Production

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2025.
PGN strains are generated by the deletion of virulence factor genes. The metabolic pathways and regulatory frameworks that lead to high‐efficiency production of rhamnolipids in P. aeruginosa are preserved in these strains. Therefore, PGN strains are promising bio‐safe cell factories for the industrial production of rhamnolipids.
