A co-evolved peptide-GPCR system senses host entry to drive fungal infection

The paper identifies a co-evolved peptide-GPCR system in Ustilago maydis that senses host entry by releasing a hidden peptide ligand from the secreted protein Pit2, promoting fungal proliferation.

Mixed DAMP/MAMP oligosaccharides promote both growth and defense against fungal pathogens of cucumber

This study shows that Oligo-Mix, a mixture of DAMP/MAMP oligosaccharides, promotes cucumber growth and enhances resistance to fungal pathogens by inducing defense responses and structural reinforcement.

Deep learning-driven imaging of cell division and cell growth across an entire eukaryotic life cycle

This paper develops a deep learning framework to image and analyze cell division and growth across the entire sexual life cycle of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Generative frame interpolation enhances tracking of biological objects in time-lapse microscopy

This paper shows that generative frame interpolation improves object tracking in time-lapse microscopy without requiring algorithm fine-tuning.

Measuring regulatory network inheritance in dividing yeast cells using ordinary differential equations

This study introduces ODEinherit, a framework using ODEs to quantify regulatory network inheritance in yeast cells, revealing heterogeneity in inheritance rates across mother-daughter pairs.

Multi-signal regulation of the GSK-3β homolog Rim11 governs meiosis entry in yeast

The paper shows how Rim11 integrates signals from PKA, TORC1, and Ime1 to regulate Ume6 phosphorylation and drive meiotic gene expression in yeast.
