Soybean is a widely planted genetically modified crop around the world. However, it is still one of the most recalcitrant crops for genetic transformation due to the difficulty of regeneration via organogenesis and some factors that affect the ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
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.

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Maize Embryo Transient Transformation by Particle Bombardment
Particle bombardment has been shown to be a useful method to study gene promoter regulatory elements by transient transformation of maize embryos with different constructions of gene promoters fused to a gene reporter.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

Shear-transformation-zone theory of plastic deformation near the glass transition
The shear-transformation-zone (STZ) theory of plastic deformation in glass-forming materials is reformulated in light of recent progress in understanding the roles played the effective disorder temperature and entropy flow in nonequilibrium situations. A

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
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.

Optimisation of transient green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene expression in Phalaenopsis Violacea Orchid mediated by Agrobacterium Tumefaciens-mediated transformation system [PDF]
Numerous transformation factors were successfully optimised to develop a reliable and highly efficient Agrobacterium-mediated transformation into the protocorm-like bodies (PLBs) of Phalaenopsis violacea.

AAA+ protein unfoldases—the Moirai of the proteome
AAA+ unfoldases are essential molecular motors that power protein degradation and disaggregation. This review integrates recent cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) structures and single‐molecule biophysical data to reconcile competing models of substrate translocation.

Actinidia arguta (A. arguta) is valued for its nutritional richness, but physiological fruit abscission severely limits production efficiency in elite cultivars. To unravel the molecular basis of this process, we compared two cultivars: abscission-prone ‘
