A Novel Gene Synthesis Platform for Designing Functional Protein Polymers
A new gene synthesis method consisting of rolling‐circle amplification and seamless cloning facilitates the advanced design of protein polymers with repetitive sequences. This method is more cost‐effective and user‐friendly than conventional methods. Using this method, a library of polymers with different repeat units can be easily constructed.

Delivery of A Chemically Modified Noncoding RNA Domain Improves Dystrophic Myotube Function
CYTOR is a pro‐myogenic ncRNA in skeletal muscle. Here, chemical probing of CYTOR, coupled with functional cellular assays identifies exon 2 as an independent myogenic RNA domain. Chemical engineering of CYTOR exon 2 RNA improves pharmacologic properties, including RNA stability and cell‐autonomous immunogenicity.

NF2 is Essential for Human Endoderm Development
This study demonstrates that NF2, moesin‐ezrin‐radixin like (MERLIN) tumor suppressor (NF2) is essential for human endoderm formation. NF2 knockout human induced pluripotent stem cells fail to form endoderm both in vitro and in vivo due to yes‐associated protein 1 (YAP1) nuclear translocation, redirecting differentiation toward myofibroblast‐like cells.

RFWD3 Reprograms Nucleotide Metabolism Through PHGDH to Induce Chemoresistance In Osteosarcoma
RFWD3 is identified as a key regulator of cisplatin (DDP) sensitivity in osteosarcoma using a genome‐wide CRISPR screen. RFWD3 promotes PHGDH ubiquitination, enhancing NAD+‐mediated nucleotide biosynthesis. Knocking out RFWD3 sensitized osteosarcoma cells to DDP.

Schematic diagram of the working model of TRAF3IP3 in the coordination of ER stress and autophagy related apoptosis in lung cancer cells. Abstract TNF receptor‐associated factor 3 interacting protein 3 (TRAF3IP3/T3JAM) exhibits dual roles in cancer progression. While upregulated in most malignancies and critical for immune regulation.
