The paper identifies CbXI-1 as the fastest myosin with a velocity of 73 m s-1, cloned from Chara braunii, and reports its atomic structure and structural features contributing to high-speed movement.

This study identifies the Runx3-Myc axis as a driver of p53-deficient osteosarcomagenesis in human and mouse models.

The paper identifies XPR1 and KIDINS220 as therapeutic targets in ovarian cancer by showing their role in phosphate dysregulation leading to cell death.

The paper determines the cryo-EM structure of MgtE in Mg2+-free conditions, revealing cytoplasmic pore opening and kink motions in TM2 and TM5 helices.

This study evaluates the antifungal effects of PC945, a novel inhaled triazole, against Candida albicans in immunocompromised mice, showing improved survival and reduced fungal load compared to voriconazole.

This study reveals the hybrid origin of white Guinea yam through genomic analysis, showing it arose from crosses between D. praehensilis and D. abyssinica with significant introgression around the SWEETIE gene.

This study develops a 3D in vitro organoid model of woven bone formation using human bone marrow stromal cells, demonstrating osteoblast and osteocyte co-culture and mineralization.

This study measures temperature oscillations in skunk cabbage spadices and suggests a novel timekeeping mechanism for homeothermic control.

This paper introduces a photoimmuno-antimicrobial strategy (PIAS) that effectively targets and eliminates various pathogens, including drug-resistant strains, without harming host microflora.

The paper analyzes SARS-CoV-2 spike protein glycan structures and their impact on immune recognition, finding that glycans extensively shield the protein surface from antibodies.

This study identifies RPT2 as a light-dependent modulator of phot1 activity in Arabidopsis, showing it suppresses phot1's photosensitivity and kinase activity through LOV1 inhibition and ubiquitin-proteasome regulation.

This study identifies ABCG33 and ABCG37 as potassium-independent cesium uptake facilitators in Arabidopsis roots through genetic and physiological analyses.

This study compares serial X-ray crystallography and MicroED for determining structures from small macromolecular crystals, highlighting their strengths and challenges.

This study identifies miR-26a as a regulator of extracellular vesicle secretion in prostate cancer cells by targeting SHC4, PFDN4, and CHORDC1, which inhibits tumor progression.
