Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

The Astronomical JournalTrumpler 5 is a populous, intermediate-age (∼3 Gyr), metal-poor ([Fe/H] ∼ −0.4) open cluster, located at a distance of approximately ∼3050 pc. This is a well-studied cluster for its broadened main-sequence (MS) and blue straggler star (BSS) population ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

The Astrophysical JournalMost of the dynamical mass loss from star clusters is thought to be caused by the time variability of the tidal field (“tidal shocks”). Systematic studies of tidal shocks have been hampered by the fact that each tidal history is unique, implying both a ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

The Star Cluster Population of M51: II. Age distribution and relations among the derived parameters [PDF]
, 2005 We use archival Hubble Space Telescope observations of broad-band images from the ultraviolet (F255W-filter) through the near infrared (NICMOS F160W-filter) to study the star cluster population of the interacting spiral galaxy M 51.

Open Cluster Study Using Gaia. I. Membership and Cluster Properties
The Astrophysical JournalStar clusters are interesting laboratories to study star formation, single and binary stellar evolution, and stellar dynamics. We have used the exquisite data from Gaia’s Data Release 3 (DR3) to study 21 relatively rich and nearby open clusters with ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

An In-depth Investigation of the Primordial Cluster Pair ASCC 19 and ASCC 21
The Astronomical JournalUtilizing Gaia data from the literature, we report a new young (∼8.9 Myr) cluster pair, ASCC 19 and ASCC 21, located near the Orion star-forming complex. The clusters are separated by a 3D distance of 27.00 ± 7.51 pc.
