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.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

The Activity of Surfaces [PDF]
Nature, 1930 IN recent years a good deal of attention has been given to the relation between the catalytic effect of a surface and its structure, and in this connexion it is perhaps of interest to point out that the general idea underlying many theories was published by me in 1911 (J. Chem. Soc., 475 ff., 1911) in a qualitative form.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Influence of Added Surfactants on the Rheology and Surface Activity of Polymer Solutions
ChemEngineeringSteady-shear rheology and surface activity of surfactant–polymer solutions were investigated experimentally. Four different polymers were studied as follows: cationic hydroxyethyl cellulose, nonionic hydroxyethyl cellulose, nonionic guar gum, and anionic

Antibacterial Activity of the Lipopeptide Biosurfactant Produced by Bacillus mojavensis PTCC 1696 [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, 2019 Bacillus mojavensis PTCC 1696 (a member of Bacillus subtilis group) has been isolated from the Iranian oil field (Masjed-I Soleyman), to examine its ability to produce biosurfactant (lipopeptide type) [28].
