A reconstituted cccDNA platform facilitated the discovery of an early chromatinization event that promotes transcription of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) regulatory X gene. The use of a small-molecule c...

Polylactide-based materials represent a promising bio-based alternative to traditional food packaging polymers. However, their widespread use is still…

Genome-wide ribosome profiling in Bacillus subtilis shows that under serine limitation, ribosomes pause on the four TCN (N for A, C, G, and T), but not AGC/AGT serine codons, during translation at a g...

Bacterial□fungal interactions have traditionally been attributed to secondary metabolites, but the role of the bacterial extracellular matrix (ECM) in shaping these relationships has remained unclear....

The mandate from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention follows an executive order from president Donald Trump, and applies to research not yet published.

Precise regulation of the phytohormone gibberellin to optimal levels may not only confer alkali–thermal tolerance to Green Revolution rice varieties but may also further enhance their yield, and ATT2, by enabling the fine-tuning of gibberellins, is expected to be a potential new post-Green Revolution gene.

Commercial adhesives are petroleum-based thermoset networks or nonbiodegradable thermoplastic hot melts, making them ideal targets for replacement by biodegradable alternatives. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate...

Cyclic lipopeptides (CLPs) are potent secondary metabolites with diverse biological functions. Bacillus strains primarily produce CLPs of three key families, namely, iturins, fengycins, and surfactins...

This study demonstrates that cryo nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (CryoNanoSIMS) enables direct multi-elemental imaging at subcellular resolution of macro- and micronutrients or trace elements in plants and may provide insights into the in vivo roles of many transporters.

A lab in Norway is working on a new method to make antibiotics by training bacteria to eat seaweed.
