Distinct Phage‐Encoded Enzymes for Substitution of Deoxythymidine by Deoxyuridine in Phage Genomes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Distinct enzymes including dCTP deaminases (Dcds), dTMP phosphatases (Dtms), and dTTP pyrophosphatases (Dtt) are found to be responsible for dU‐DNA biosynthesis in the phages PBS1, DSS3_VP1, and PhiR1‐37. Both PhiR1‐37‐derived and synthetic dU‐DNA are resistant to cleavage by restriction enzymes and Cas12a nuclease targeting dT‐containing sites.

Dual Disruption of the Immune Cytokine Spätzle Facilitates Fungal Infection of Diverse Insect Hosts

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The Toll pathway is essential for insect defense against fungal pathogens. This works reports that fungal parasites employ two divergent virulent effectors to target the Toll receptor ligand Spätzle: a metalloprotease degrading it and a hairpin‐like effector hijacking it to block signal transduction. This dual strategy enables the fungus to kill a wide

Arid1a Deficiency Drives Aristolochic Acid‐Induced Liver Tumorigenesis through Ctnnb1 Mutation and Defective Nucleotide Excision Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ARID1A is frequently mutated in both non‐malignant tissues and cancers, but its role in tumor development after exposure to genotoxic carcinogen remains unclear. It is found that aristolochic acid I accelerated liver tumorigenesis in ARID1A‐deficient context by impairing nucleotide excision repair and enhancing carcinogen bioactivation, revealing key ...

Insect I‐Type Lysozymes Function as Antiviral Proteases by Forming Biomolecular Condensates

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Upon rice viral infection, the insect vector activates the Toll–MyD88–Dorsal signaling cascade, inducing i‐type lysozyme (Lyz‐I1) expression. Lyz‐I1 functions as an antiviral protease through its conserved catalytic dyad Glu/Asp (E/D), mediating cleavage of viral proteins at specific Lys (K) residues.
