Understanding pectin cross-linking in plant cell walls (2025)
Journal Article
Obomighie, I., Prentice, I. J., Lewin-Jones, P., Bachtiger, F., Ramsay, N., Kishi-Itakura, C., Goldberg, M. W., Hawkins, T. J., Sprittles, J. E., Knight, H., & Sosso, G. C. (2025). Understanding pectin cross-linking in plant cell walls. Communications Biology, 8(1), Article 72. https://doi.org/10.1038/s42003-025-07495-0

Pectin is a major component of plant cells walls. The extent to which pectin chains crosslink with one another determines crucial properties including cell wall strength, porosity, and the ability of small, biologically significant molecules to acces...

The ER-PM interaction is essential for cytokinesis and recruits the actin cytoskeleton through the SCAR/WAVE complex (2025)
Journal Article
Xu, Z., Zang, J., Zhang, X., Zheng, Q., Li, Y., Field, N., Fiserova, J., Hua, B., Qu, X., Kriechbaumer, V., Deeks, M. J., Hussey, P. J., & Wang, P. (in press). The ER-PM interaction is essential for cytokinesis and recruits the actin cytoskeleton through the SCAR/WAVE complex. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,

Plant cytokinesis requires coordination between the actin cytoskeleton, microtubules 32 and membranes to guide division plane formation and cell plate expansion; how these 33 regulatory factors are coordinated remains unknown. The actin cytoskeleton... Read More about The ER-PM interaction is essential for cytokinesis and recruits the actin cytoskeleton through the SCAR/WAVE complex.

Using Large Language Models to Assist Antimicrobial Resistance Policy Development: Integrating the Environment into Health Protection Planning. (2025)
Journal Article
Chen, C., Li, S.-L., So, A. D., Xu, Y.-Y., Guo, Z.-F., Wang, X., Graham, D. W., & Zhu, Y.-G. (2025). Using Large Language Models to Assist Antimicrobial Resistance Policy Development: Integrating the Environment into Health Protection Planning. Environmental Science and Technology, https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.4c07842

Increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a substantial threat to global health and economies, which has led many countries and regions to develop AMR National Action Plans (NAPs). However, inadequate logistical capacity, funding, and essential...

Quantifying the Evolutionary Dynamics of Structure and Content in Closely Related E. coli Genomes (2025)
Journal Article
Molari, M., Shaw, L. P., & Neher, R. A. (2025). Quantifying the Evolutionary Dynamics of Structure and Content in Closely Related E. coli Genomes. Molecular Biology and Evolution, 42(1), Article msae272. https://doi.org/10.1093/molbev/msae272

Bacterial genomes primarily diversify via gain, loss, and rearrangement of genetic material in their flexible accessory genome. Yet the dynamics of accessory genome evolution are very poorly understood, in contrast to the core genome where diversific...
