Generating Cell Surface Nucleated Hydrogels with an Artificial Membrane‐Binding Transglutaminase
Cell‐based therapies require advanced strategies to enhance cell delivery and bioactivity. Cell membrane engineering offers an avenue to impart new functions to delivered cells to boost their viability and function. Here, an artificial membrane‐binding transglutaminase is generated and biophysically characterized.

Tissue Engineered Human Elastic Cartilage From Primary Auricular Chondrocytes for Ear Reconstruction
Despite over three decades of research, no tissue‐engineered solution for auricular reconstruction in microtia patients has reached clinical translation. The key challenge lies in generating functional elastic cartilage ex vivo. Here, we integrate synergistic cell‐biomaterial strategies to engineer auricular grafts with mechanical and histological ...

ANTAGONIST ACTIVITY OF Streptomyces sp. Y20 AGAINST FUNGI CAUSING DISEASES IN PLANTS AND FRUITS
Background: Crop microbial pathogens reduce the production and quality of agricultural products. They cause substantial increase costs for producers of fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants with negative consequences on economy and food security at ...

NsrR from Streptomyces coelicolor is a nitric oxide-sensing [4Fe-4S] cluster protein with a specialized regulatory function [PDF]
The Rrf2 family transcription factor NsrR controls expression of genes in a wide range of bacteria in response to nitric oxide (NO). The precise form of the NO-sensing module of NsrR is the subject of controversy because NsrR proteins containing either ...

Commercial biocontrol agents reveal contrasting comportments against two mycotoxigenic fungi in cereals: Fusarium Graminearum and Fusarium Verticillioides [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of commercialized biological control agents (BCAs) against two major mycotoxigenic fungi in cereals, Fusarium graminearum and Fusarium verticillioides, which are trichothecene and fumonisin producers ...

Reclassification of Streptomyces hygroscopicus strains as Streptomyces aldersoniae sp. nov., Streptomyces angustmyceticus sp. nov., comb. nov., Streptomyces ascomycinicus sp. nov., Streptomyces decoyicus sp. nov., comb. nov., Streptomyces milbemycinicus sp. nov. and Streptomyces wellingtoniae sp. nov. [PDF]
A polyphasic study was undertaken to determine the taxonomic status of six strains received asStreptomyces hygroscopicus. The strains had chemotaxonomic and morphological properties typical of members of the genusStreptomycesand formed distinct phyletic lines in theStreptomyces16S rRNA gene tree.

A targeted metabologenomic strategy integrating genomic and metabolomic hallmarks enabled the discovery of two new thioamides, thiogochangamides A and B, from bacteria. Their absolute configurations, previously unresolved within the thioviridamide family, were fully assigned through various chemical derivatizations and computational analysis ...
