In vivo analyses reveal rapid and permissive lipid transport between the ER and mitochondria

The paper quantifies ER-to-mitochondria lipid transport in yeast, showing rapid exchange and limited substrate selectivity.

Disruption of putrescine export in experimentally evolved Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum enhances symbiosis with Mimosa pudica

This study shows that disrupting putrescine export in Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum enhances its symbiosis with Mimosa pudica by altering host gene expression and increasing bacterial load in nodules.

The human plasma amino acids balance favours HIV replication in primary CD4 T lymphocytes

The study shows that amino acid balance, not energy metabolism, promotes HIV-1 replication in primary CD4 T cells under near-physiological conditions.

Combining systems and synthetic biology for in vivo enzymology

The paper develops a method to measure enzymatic parameters in vivo using synthetic biology tools and applies it to study carotenoid pathway enzymes in yeast.

PhysioFit: a software to quantify cell growth parameters and extracellular fluxes

PhysioFit quantifies cell growth parameters and extracellular fluxes using flexible growth models and provides a user-friendly software tool for non-computational biologists.

E4F1 COORDINATES PYRUVATE METABOLISM AND THE ACTIVITY OF THE ELONGATOR COMPLEX TO ENSURE TRANSLATION FIDELITY DURING BRAIN DEVELOPMENT

Mixing and matching methylotrophic enzymes to design a novel methanol utilization pathway in E. coli

The paper designs a synthetic methanol utilization pathway in E. coli by combining methylotrophic enzymes from different sources and optimizing it for increased methanol assimilation.
