Microbial carbon mineralization in tropical lowland and montane forest soils of Peru [PDF]
, 2016 Climate change is affecting the amount and complexity of plant inputs to tropical forest soils. This is likely to influence the carbon (C) balance of these ecosystems by altering decomposition processes e.g., "positive priming effects" that accelerate ...

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Structural insight into D-xylose utilization by xylose reductase from Scheffersomyces stipitis [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 AbstractLignocellulosic biomass, of which D-xylose accounts for approximately 35% of the total sugar, has attracted attention as a future energy source for biofuel. To elucidate molecular mechanism of D-xylose utilization, we determined the crystal structure of D-xylose reductase from Schefferzomyces stipitis (SsXR) at a 1.95 Å resolution.

Shaping of Biohybrid Functional Living Materials
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work demonstrates a strategy for shaping living mycelium into functional materials by directing its natural growth. Nanoparticles armor hyphae, micron‐scale particles entangle within the network, and printed hydrogel architectures steer expansion, creating defined geometries.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A Lewis pair site design strategy was established to construct Cu‐doped Mn‐based amorphous nanozymes, where Mn and oxygen vacancies generate cooperative acid‐base pairs. The resulting multinanozyme integrates glycosidase‐, oxidase‐, and cold‐adapted enzyme‐mimicking activities, enabling cooperative depolymerization of cellulose and hemicellulose ...
