▲ Abstract:
Many plant pathogenic fungi penetrate host surfaces mechanically,文导闻科 using turgor pressure generated by specialized infection cells called appressoria. These appressoria develop semipermeable cell walls and accumulate osmolytes internally to create turgor by osmosis. Although melanin is known to be important for turgor generation, the mechanism underlying wall semipermeability remains unclear. By using reverse genetics, we identified that the enzymes PKS2 and PBG13 are required for forming the semipermeable barrier in fungi causing anthracnose and rice blast diseases. These enzymes synthesize 3,5-dihydroxyhexanoic acid polymers that are essential for pathogenicity. These polymers reduce cell wall permeability and generate turgor, independently of melanization. Our findings uncover a mechanism of fungal turgor generation, linking enzyme function to pathogen penetration and disease potential, presenting new targets for disease control.

▲ Abstract:
Our bodies have developed adaptations for using carbohydrates, lipids, or proteins as fuels, depending on availability. This flexibility also helps promote survival during fasting by drawing on adipose reserves, and the same mechanism is involved in thermogenesis to maintain body temperature. These adaptations rely on fatty acid oxidation, with carnitine facilitating the transport of long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria. Dietary intake of carnitine is not sufficient, particularly in those who maintain plant-based diets, and thus de novo carnitine synthesis is required for survival. Auger et al. elucidated the role of mitochondrial protein SLC25A45 in de novo carnitine synthesis and demonstrated its effects on both cold tolerance and weight loss on treatment with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists in mouse models.

▲ Abstract:
When a massive star reaches the end of its lifetime, its core collapses and releases neutrinos that drive a shock into the outer layers (the stellar envelope). A sufficiently strong shock ejects the envelope, producing a supernova. If the shock fails to eject it, the envelope is predicted to fall back onto the collapsing core, producing a stellar-mass black hole (BH) and causing the star to disappear. We report observations of M31-2014-DS1, a hydrogen-depleted supergiant in the Andromeda Galaxy. In 2014, it brightened in the mid-infrared, then from 2017 to 2022, it faded by factors of 104in optical light (becoming undetectable) and in total light. We interpret these observations, and those of a previous event in NGC 6946, as evidence for failed supernovae forming stellar-mass BHs.

▲ Abstract:
The loss of myelin (demyelination) in the central nervous system is a hallmark of several neurological disorders. However, it remains unclear how the demyelination process occurs. Using zebrafish models and human tissue, Arafa et al. showed that myelin sheets swell drastically after the induction of damage and before being lost. Live imaging data in zebrafish indicated that myelin sheaths can in some cases withstand extensive damage (swelling) and even recover through morphological remodeling. Pharmacological manipulation of neuronal activity can affect this recovery capacity, suggesting a potential therapeutic opportunity to prevent myelin loss in disease and aging.

▲ Abstract:
A long-standing challenge in protein structure is understanding how protein surfaces enable interactions with other proteins, with the ultimate goal of predicting and designing such surfaces. However, we still do not fully understand how evolution shapes such interactions. Yang et al. used synthetic coevolution of artificial protein pairs to explore how protein-protein binding sites form and evolve. They identified seed contacts at a very early stage that could take several different paths as the binder pair coevolved. Natural interface surfaces appear to be preorganized to allow fast evolution of deep energy wells that support binding of new partner proteins. These insights will be important to consider when designing synthetic protein binders and may explain why antibodies and peptides often interact with natural protein binding interfaces.
