Observing Plant Roots

The American Biology Teacher, 1957
was drawn lightly over the streak until that area was as light as the rest of the section. In order that many sections could be stained at one time, plastic ice trays with 60 slots for chipped ice were used as staining vessels. Identical results were obtained in control sections stained in glass vessels.

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

INTERACTION OF PSEUDOMONAS AND AZOSPIRILLUM SPECIE WITH WHEAT PLANT ROOTS TO ENHANCE PLANT PRODUCTIVITY AGAINST DROUGHT STRESS

Pakistan Journal of Agriculture, Agricultural Engineering & Veterinary Sciences
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L) is regarded as the main staple crop of Pakistan. Drought is one major environmental stress that badly affects crop production. Plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria are proven to increase crop productivity and plant resistance.

Study on the mechanism of plant root influence on soil properties in expansive soil areas

Open Geosciences
Expansive soil is a type of unsaturated soil that develops fissures within its body due to dry and wet cycles. These fissures are the primary factor contributing to slope instability in expansive soil regions.

Inhibiting stearoyl‐CoA desaturase suppresses bone metastatic prostate cancer by modulating cellular stress, mTOR signaling, and DNA damage response

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bone metastasis in prostate cancer (PCa) patients is a clinical hurdle due to the poor understanding of the supportive bone microenvironment. Here, we identify stearoyl‐CoA desaturase (SCD) as a tumor‐promoting enzyme and potential therapeutic target in bone metastatic PCa.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
