This study investigates the physiological impact of folded-state protein agglomerates in yeast, finding they do not disrupt proteostasis or cell fitness and show minimal effects on cellular processes.

This study demonstrates the production of bioplastic PHB in engineered E. coli using CO2 and formate via the reductive glycine pathway, showing potential for electro-bioproduction.

This study identifies three genetic mutations enabling E. coli to grow autotrophically when combined with non-native enzymes for carbon fixation and energy production.

The paper derives and tests a growth law for bacterial upshifts, showing that post-shift growth rate is the geometric mean of pre-shift growth and saturating carbon growth, supported by experiments and theoretical analysis.

The paper describes a yeast hybrid with increased growth rate and biomass yield under various conditions, but identifies genetic perturbations and regulatory disruptions associated with heterosis.
