Article Abstract
Protein assemblages in the plasma membrane of photosynthetic organisms include the polar occurrence of PIN proteins permitting polar auxin transport in embryophytes and Charales, and the H ATPase in acid zones of Charales cells. Production of small radius of curvature membrane areas in transfer cells and charasomes is incompletely understood.

Wnt proteins are critical signaling molecules in developmental processes across animals. Despite intense study, their evolutionary roots have remained enigmatic. Using sensitive sequence analysis and structure modeling, we establish that the Wnts are part of a vast assemblage of domains, the Lipocone superfamily, defined here for the first time.

Background: There is a diverse assemblage of microbes in air in built environments (BEs), but our understanding of viruses and their interactions with hosts in BEs remains incomplete. To address this knowledge gap, this study analyzed 503 metagenomes isolated from air samples from public transit systems in six global cities, namely Denver, Hong Kong, London, New York City, Oslo, and Stockholm. Viral genomes were recovered from samples via metagenomic binning, and viruses' taxonomy, functional potential, and microbial hosts were determined.

Botulinum neurotoxin serotype B1 (BoNT/B) is a highly potent neurotoxin and therapeutic agent. Here, we present the structure of the complete 14-subunit (780 kDa) progenitor toxin complex (L-PTC) and of five subcomplexes. The structures show how the toxin interacts with its associated components in their role to protect and deliver BoNT/B across epithelial barriers.

Food underpins fitness and ecological interactions, yet how nutrient availability shapes species interactions in natural communities remains poorly understood. Most nutritional ecology research focuses on laboratory or single-species systems, limiting insight into how nutrient use and nutrient niche dynamics occur in complex, multispecies assemblages in the wild. We combined long-term plant-pollinator interaction data with pollen macronutrient analyses to examine how wild bumble bees exploit macronutrients and whether they occupy distinct nutrient niches.

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) methods allow for the generation of data leading to a greater understanding of the potential functionality and dynamics of microorganisms within their biotopes. The enormous volume of data that NGS produces necessitates understanding structural and functional genomics through the application of various omics techniques. Streptomyces cyaneofuscatus CTM50504 is a potential extracellular hydrolase producer isolated from a terrestrial hot spring, Aïn El-Atrous, Korbous (Nabeul, Tunisia).
