The MICOS Complex Regulates Mitochondrial Structure and Oxidative Stress During Age-Dependent Structural Deficits in the Kidney

This study investigates age-related mitochondrial structural deficits in the kidney, finding that the MICOS complex is impaired, leading to increased oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Bacterial Receptors but Not Anti-Phage Defense Mechanisms Determine Host Range for a Pair of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Lytic Phages

The paper identifies bacterial receptor genes determining phage host range, showing defense mechanisms are not predictive of susceptibility.

Non-Synonymous, Synonymous, and Non-Coding Nucleotide Variants Contribute to Recurrently Altered Biological Processes During Retinoblastoma Progression

The paper identifies contributions of non-synonymous, synonymous, and non-coding variants to recurrent biological processes in retinoblastoma progression using genomic and functional analyses.

Natural Variation in Brachypodium distachyon Responses to Combined Abiotic Stresses

This study analyzes phenotypic and genetic variation in Brachypodium distachyon under drought, heat, and combined stresses to identify SNPs associated with stress responses.

RNA targeting with CRISPR-Cas13a facilitates bacteriophage genome engineering

This paper develops a CRISPR-Cas13a-based method to edit bacteriophage genomes, enabling precise gene modifications and functional studies of phage genes.

High Light and High Temperature Reduce Photosynthesis via Different Mechanisms in the C4 Model Setaria viridis

This study examines how high light and high temperature affect photosynthesis in Setaria viridis, revealing distinct mechanisms and acclimation strategies in C4 plants.

Vitamin D status is heritable and under environment-dependent selection in the wild.

This study shows that vitamin D status is heritable and under environment-dependent selection in wild Soay sheep, with implications for survival and fecundity.
