Systems biology as a foundation for genome-scale synthetic biology
As the ambitions of synthetic biology approach genome-scale engineering, comprehensive characterization of cellular systems is required, as well as a means to accurately model cell-scale molecular interactions.

Spatial entropy drives the maintenance and dissemination of transferable plasmids
The dissemination of transferable plasmids, a major type of mobile genetic elements (MGEs), is one main driver of antibiotic resistance outbreaks. While the plasmid persistence condition in well-mixed environments has been extensively studied, most ...

How structural disorder and polyelectrolyte properties of prothymosin α enable its large interactome
In this review, complexes of the fully disordered and highly negatively charged prothymosin α are collected, described, and discussed. Linked to its poly‐electrostatic character, prothymosin α engages a large interactome through multiple different binding modes ranging from fully disordered complexes to short linear motif (SLiM)‐driven interactions ...

Metagenomic analysis reveals gut phage diversity across three mammalian models
Background The gut virome plays a pivotal role in shaping the host’s microbiota. However, gut viruses across different mammalian models, and their connections with the human gut microbiota remain largely unknown. Results We identified 977 high-confidence

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

From noise to synthetic nucleoli: can synthetic biology achieve new insights?
Synthetic biology aims to re-organise and control biological components to make functional devices. Along the way, the iterative process of designing and testing gene circuits has the potential to yield many insights into the functioning of the ...

This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

The ability to regulate gene expression in multiple directions is crucial to maximise the production of microbial cell factories. However, the lack of a regulatory tool that can simultaneously activate and repress multiple genes restricts the ...

The proposed mechanism of action for the CDK12/13 inhibitor and cyclin K degrader, CT7439. CDK12/13 inhibition interrupts transcription elongation, leading to increased DNA damage that results in cell death. This agent is a potentially novel treatment option for patients with colorectal cancer. Created in BioRender. Cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) 12 and
