This study identifies Leptotrichia wadei as a pro-tumorigenic bacterium in CRC by linking metabolic specialization to microbial niches and tumor progression.

The paper shows yeast cells can cooperatively compensate for methionine auxotrophy by using a new homocysteine synthase, HSU1, to re-assimilate hydrogen sulfide.

The paper functionally profiles long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) in fission yeast by analyzing mutant phenotypes across various conditions.

Pyphe automates and improves analysis of microbial fitness screens by processing colony size, viability, and growth curve data from low-cost imaging.

The paper identifies a natural variant in fission yeast Pyk1 that reduces glycolytic flux, increases respiration, and enhances oxidative-stress resistance but decreases growth.
