The paper identifies conserved inhibitory mechanisms in root-associated bacteria that affect both Arabidopsis thaliana and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, using a scalable algal model to study cryptic inhibition.

This paper demonstrates that a peptide derived from CISD2/NAF-1 selectively targets and destroys ovarian cancer mitochondria, reducing tumor size and growth in vivo.

The paper identifies a novel antiviral immune cell type in cnidarians by analyzing gene expression and function in Nematostella vectensis embryos.

The paper identifies rRNA methylation dynamics as a mechanism regulating translation efficiency and HSC fitness during hematopoietic differentiation.

This study identifies how NAF-144-67 targets CISD2/NAF-1 in cancer cells, disrupts its dimeric structure, and enhances anticancer activity through dimeric forms.

The paper shows that double-stranded RNA induces apoptosis in the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis, suggesting this mechanism was present in the last common ancestor of cnidarians and bilaterians.
