Switchbody, an Antigen‐Responsive Enzyme Switch Based on Antibody and Its Working Principle

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This paper presents an antibody‐based enzyme switch, termed a “Switchbody”, which is fused with an enzyme‐derived fragment to the N‐terminus of an antibody. As its working principle, the fused fragment is trapped within the antibody and released upon antigen binding, leading to enzyme reconstitution and a subsequent increase in enzyme activity.

Enhancing the β‐Oxidation‐Like Pathway for the Optimal Production of the Immunosuppressant Mycophenolic Acid

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The most elaborate known example of β‐oxidation‐like pathway recruitment in fungi is reported, involving a 10‐step oxidative chain‐shortening cascade catalyzed by five dedicated enzymes to generate the pharmacophore of mycophenolic acid (MPA)—a novel clinical immunosuppressant. Our findings illustrate how nature repurposes catabolic enzymes for complex

Integrated Metabolic and Inflammatory Clustering Reveals Distinct Risk Profiles for Digestive Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study analyzes 398 432 participants, identifying four distinct metabolic‐inflammatory subtypes. These subtypes show a significant association with digestive disease risk. Cluster‐associated metabolite signatures partially explain this link. Machine learning models using these metabolites accurately predict risk for ten digestive diseases. Key risk

A Transmembrane Protein WAI‐B2 Confers Multiple Disease Resistance in Wheat by Activating Autoimmunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Wheat production is under threat from multiple diseases. This study clones the wheat autoimmunity gene WAI‐B2 from an EMS‐induced mutant that encodes a distinct transmembrane protein conferring resistance to wheat rusts and powdery mildew ‐ two major diseases affecting wheat crops.

Novel Role of Gut‐Derived Roseburia Intestinalis in Safeguarding Intestinal Barrier Integrity and Microenvironment Homeostasis During Arsenic Exposure

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Arsenic exposure disrupts intestinal barriers and gut microenvironment. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) alleviates arsenic‐induced damage, with gut‐derived Roseburia intestinalis (R.i) identified as a key protective strain. R.i administration counters arsenic toxicity through immunomodulatory pathways and metabolites.
