The paper shows that some bacteria grow better on mixed carbon sources than on individual ones, and links this to their genetic makeup and metabolic preferences.

The paper uses consumer-resource models parametrized from monoculture exometabolite data to predict and design synthetic microbial consortia, revealing the importance of cross-feeding interactions and nonlinear dynamics.

This study benchmarks mass spectrometry-based antibody sequencing methods, revealing biases related to sequence, concentration, protease, and bioinformatics tools.

Casanovo translates tandem mass spectra into peptide sequences using a transformer model, outperforming existing methods and improving analysis in immunopeptidomics and metaproteomics.
