The paper discovers that intrinsically disordered proteins form condensates with catalytic activity through sequence-dependent electrochemical microenvironments, enabling hydrolysis reactions and gene circuit activation in cells.

This study shows that FASN inhibition restores radiosensitivity in chordoma by targeting adaptive fatty acid metabolism that protects against radiotherapy-induced damage.

The paper develops DIMPLE, a computational method to analyze metabolite patterns along developmental gradients in maize roots, revealing D-erythrose's role in salt-stress response.

This study identifies age-related lipidomic changes in neural stem cells using mass spectrometry and shows that lipid modifications affect NSC function and activation.
