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

Enzymes involved in DNA ligation and end-healing in the radioresistant bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Enzymes involved in DNA metabolic events of the highly radioresistant bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans are currently examined to understand the mechanisms that protect and repair the Deinococcus radiodurans genome after extremely high doses ...

A CRISPRi Gene Regulation System for Bifidobacteria
We report the development of a single plasmid‐based CRISPR interference system based on a catalytically dead Cas9 from Streptococcus thermophilus for targeted gene repression in bifidobacteria. This system is capable of repressing genes in a diverse range of bifidobacteria enabling functional genomics studies in non‐model strains.

Viroids: Survivors from the RNA World? [PDF]
Because RNA can be a carrier of genetic information and a biocatalyst, there is a consensus that it emerged before DNA and proteins, which eventually assumed these roles and relegated RNA to intermediate functions.

ABSTRACT Ancient DNA (aDNA) analysis of archaeological dental calculus has provided a wealth of insights into ancient health, demography and lifestyles. However, the workflow for ancient metagenomics is still evolving, raising concerns about reproducibility.

The 2'-5' RNA Ligase of Escherichia coli: Purification, Cloning, and Genomic Disruption [PDF]
An RNA ligase previously detected in extracts of Escherichia coli is capable of joining Saccharomyces cerevisiae tRNA splicing intermediates in the absence of ATP to form a 2-5 phosphodiester linkage (Greer, C., Javor, B., and Abelson, J. (1983) Cell 33,

DNA repair in cancer: emerging targets for personalized therapy [PDF]
Genomic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is under constant threat from endogenous and exogenous DNA damaging agents. Mammalian cells have evolved highly conserved DNA repair machinery to process DNA damage and maintain genomic integrity.

The Arabidopsis bZIP3 protein works in conjunction with ASYMMETRIC LEAVES1 to facilitate the function of the CONSTANS protein in activating FLOWERING LOCUS T expression at the end of the day in a day length‐dependent manner. ABSTRACT Plants monitor daylength to synchronize their flowering time with their surroundings and thus maximize reproductive ...

A Cas12a Toolbox for Rapid and Flexible Group B Streptococcus Genomic Editing and CRISPRi
We developed a resource set and protocols that allow researchers to quickly alter or silence genes in Group B Streptococcus. Using flexible plasmids and a drug‐inducible Cas12a system, the approach enables efficient generation of insertions, deletions, or knockdowns. These tools are publicly available.

We identified adaptor protein ShcD as upregulated in triple‐negative breast cancer and found its expression to be correlated with reduced patient survival and increased invasion in cell models. Using a proteomic screen, we identified novel ShcD binding partners involved in EGFR signaling pathways.
