This review covers the catalytic mechanisms and molecular functions of 2'-O-Me in different RNA species, discusses its physiological importance, and highlights the methods for transcriptome-wide mapping of this modification.

Our findings highlight the role of CMTR1 in regulating NMDAR signaling, which is critical for synaptic plasticity and memory consolidation.

Here, we showed by thioflavin T fluorescence that the isomerization of L-Asp at different positions of amyloid β peptide 1-42 (Aβ42) generates opposing effects on its aggregation kinetics.These findings provide crucial insights into how the conversion from L- to D-Asp influences the aggregation propensity and amyloid polymorphism of Aβ42.

ECM in decidua and myometrium induced trophoblast HtrA4 expression. Decidual HtrA1 inhibited HtrA4-induced trophoblast invasion. Without the inhibition of HtrA1, HtrA4 expression and invasion was upregulated in the trophoblasts of patients with PAS. The reciprocal effects of HtrA4 and HtrA1 at the maternal-fetal interface may be involved in the pathogenesis of PAS.

This work presents the most complete genomic dataset of ‘Ca. P. solani’ to date and reveals the remarkable plasticity of its genome structure and pathogenic gene content. These findings lay a foundation for future functional studies of effectors and advance our understanding of the complex interactions among phytopathogenic bacteria, insect vectors, and plant hosts. The results may also inform the development of disease management strategies, such as molecular diagnostics or breeding for resistance.

Lignocellulose is a plant-based material and one of the most common sources for making sustainable biofuels. However, turning it into fuel on a large scale is still difficult. One of the main problems is that the enzymes used to break it down are expensive and not efficient enough. To solve this, researchers are exploring better ways to make these enzymes work faster and cost less. One promising idea is to build enzyme complexes similar to those found in bacteria, called cellulosomes.
