This study identifies FoxM1 as a key driver of proximal tubule proliferation during repair from acute kidney injury, revealing an EGFR-FoxM1 signaling pathway.

This study presents the structure of FtsX's extracellular loop and shows its essential interaction with PcsB for cell viability in Streptococcus pneumoniae.

This study shows lactate dehydrogenases (LDHA and LDHB) can both generate and prevent reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cancer cells, depending on oxidative stress levels.

This paper identifies disulfiram and Bay 11-7082 as pyroptosis inhibitors that covalently modify a conserved cysteine in gasdermin D, thereby blocking pore formation and inflammation.

This study compares the microbiome of Schlechtendalia chinensis aphids on two host plants, finding distinct bacterial communities associated with each host.

The paper identifies and maps the stripe rust resistance gene YrTZ2 in wild emmer wheat and compares its genomic region with Aegilops tauschii.

The paper identifies residues critical for allosteric activation in a bacterial repressor by analyzing ZnII-induced changes in atomic motions.

This study investigates the functional differences between two kinesin-2 proteins in trypanosomes, showing TbKin2a's role in IFT, cell division, and motility, while TbKin2b has a less critical role.

The paper investigates how membrane tension gradients and spatial variations in membrane properties influence cell shape and movement in a fluid environment.

This study shows that preexisting antibodies can prevent congenital cytomegalovirus infection in monkeys by blocking placental transmission.
