Surprising biology in uncharted microbial sequences
The microbiome, all microorganisms in their natural habitat, can be collected on filters and its DNA extracted. Sequencing of this metagenome allows us to observe microorganisms not under a microscope or in the lab but via their DNA and in their natural habitat, revealing who they are and what they can do.

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Applications of next‐generation sequencing in plant biology [PDF]
The last several years have seen revolutionary advances in DNA sequencing technologies with the advent of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) techniques. NGS methods now allow millions of bases to be sequenced in one round, at a fraction of the cost relative to traditional Sanger sequencing.

In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Rural Education and the teaching of genetics: an investigative didactic possibility
Research related to the genome project, cloning and genetically modified organisms are present inside and outside the school. Such subjects deserve attention in the teaching of genetics due to the difficulties presented by the students, regarding the ...

B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

A computational pipeline to visualize DNA-protein binding states using dSMF data
Summary: Here, we present a pipeline to map states of protein-binding DNA in vivo. Our pipeline infers as well as quantifies cooperative binding. Using dual-enzyme single-molecule footprinting (dSMF) data, we show how our workflow identifies binding ...

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Alignment-free sequence comparison: benefits, applications, and tools
Alignment-free sequence analyses have been applied to problems ranging from whole-genome phylogeny to the classification of protein families, identification of horizontally transferred genes, and detection of recombined sequences.
