All You Can Eat Yeast: Substituting Hexose Transporters With AtSWEET7 Alleviates Glucose Repression, Enabling Simultaneous Utilization of Sugars in Renewable Feedstocks

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 123, Issue 6, Page 1518-1530, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Yeast sugar transporters have highly evolved for preferential glucose transport, a significant roadblock for utilizing non‐glucose sugars in renewable feedstocks such as lignocellulosic biomass. To enable simultaneous transport of multiple sugars, native hexose transporters were replaced by SWEET7p from Arabidopsis thaliana in engineered ...

Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci and Development of Molecular Markers Associated With Yield‐Related Traits in Pyropia haitanensis Through Genome‐Wide Association Studies

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.
To address the GWAS data scarcity in Pyropia haitanensis, 280 double‐haploid strains were phenotyped for 11 agronomic traits. GWAS analysis identified 454 candidate genes clustered on chromosome 4. Two molecular markers were validated: RPN5 (C/G SNP at Chr4:4,319,644) for thallus length, and DWF1 (T/G SNP at Chr4:4,485,590) for maturity days ...

Construction of a CO2‐Fixing Compartment Using a Shape‐Transforming DNA Scaffold

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 19, 22 May 2026.
A shape‐transforming DNA scaffold encapsulates RuBisCO within a controllable, self‐contacting compartment that mimics the carboxysome. The scaffold switches between open and closed states, enabling direct comparison of identical enzyme populations in different microenvironments.
