Subversion of Atypical Mucin Traps by a Spore‐Coat Effector Blocks Cellular Immunity in Drosophila
While the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium robertsii can evade insect humoral immunity, its subversion of cellular defenses is still elusive. We identify Eac1 as a spore‐coat protein essential for infecting drosophilids by targeting atypical mucins (Sgf1 and Sgf2), which can entrap spores in a gel matrix and thereby facilitate hemocyte encapsulation.

Super‐multiplexed Label‐free Raman Imaging (SLRI) enables 2D/3D metabolic mapping of intact Drosophila testes. Moving beyond descriptive morphology, it establishes a multidimensional tool for tissue metabolic remodeling, and offers a generalizable platform for complex tissue analysis, with implications extending to development and disease. ABSTRACT The

Therapy for Myhre Syndrome: Goals, Misconceptions, and Current Agents
ABSTRACT Myhre Syndrome (MYHRS, MIM #139210) is a rare, multisystem connective tissue disorder caused by recurrent heterozygous gain‐of‐function pathogenic variants in the SMAD4 gene, a key player in TGF‐β signaling and a regulator of extracellular matrix homeostasis.

IRF‐1 modulates hepatic ferroptosis and aggravates liver ischemia/reperfusion injury via DYRK1α
IRF‐1 modulates hepatic ferroptosis and aggravates liver ischemia/reperfusion injury via DYRK1α. Abstract Background The purpose is to define the contribution of the interferon regulatory factor‐1–dual‐specificity tyrosine phosphorylation‐regulated kinase 1α (IRF‐1–DYRK1α) axis to hepatocellular ferroptosis during liver ischemia/reperfusion injury ...

New Water Oxidation Mechanism in Photosystem II Resolves Major Experimental Controversies
In Photosystem II Oxygen Evolving Complex, we discovered the O3‐O6 peroxide at lower energy. Assignment of the O3 ligated by histidine (His337) as a slow exchanging substrate and its coupling with O6 give the O─O bond formation mechanism most consistent with all currently available experimental data. Proposal shows how protein environment can steer the
