Article Abstract
Medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) production is a promising method for resource recovery from organic wastes. In this study, the microbial community structure shift along the long-term acclimation experiment and the concomitant effect of H level on chain elongation performance was investigated. Chain elongation microbiome could be rapidly acclimated from traditional anaerobic fermentation consortia. Genera Caproiciproducens, Clostridium sensu stricto 12, Rummeliibacillus and Oscillibacter was found to be dominant during the operation. The H was accumulated in the headspace by increasing the ethanol input, which inhibited oxidation of caproate and butyrate immediately, while its inhibition effect on chain elongation was delayed. H level in the headspace was positively correlated to the MCFAs production related bacteria. However, too much H accumulated might be suppressive for MCFAs production in the long term. It might result from the thermodynamic barrier for discarding excess reducing equivalents under high H level, which further gave rise to ethanol accumulation in this system.

Centered on the transcription factor NRF2 and its E3 ligase CUL3, the oxidative stress response protects cells from damage by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Increasing ROS inhibits CUL3 to stabilize NRF2 and elicit antioxidant gene expression, while cells recovering from stress rapidly turn over NRF2 again to prevent reductive stress and oxeiptosis-dependent death. How cells reinitiate NRF2 degradation after ROS have been cleared remains poorly understood.

With growing public attention to environmental issues and sustainable development, biodegradable bio-based plastics have attracted widespread interest. This study reveals the chemical-physical synergistic regulation mechanism of biodegradable PLA/PBAT blends through the synergistic modification of epoxidized natural rubber (ENR) and epoxy chain extender (ADR). Interfacial interaction analysis shows that PBAT tends to encapsulate ENR to form aggregates.

The turnover of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in soil regulated by biodegradable microplastics (MPs) has garnered much attention due to its profound impact on the storage and stability of soil organic matter. However, the transformation and reactivity of plant-derived and microbially derived DOM by microorganisms adapted to biodegradable MPs, and the involved microbial physiological processes, remain nearly unknown. Here, we added virgin and aged polylactic acid (PLA) and polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) to agricultural soils and incubated for 56 days.

Achieving quantitative control over interlayer spacing in multilayer two-dimensional (2D) supramolecular organic frameworks (SOFs) remains a fundamental challenge. Here, we report a molecular pillar engineering strategy enabling programmable vertical expansion of bilayer architectures. By designing elongated bipyridine pillars L2/L3 (3.

The dynamics of transcriptional elongation influence many biological activities, such as RNA splicing, polyadenylation, and nuclear export. To quantify the elongation rate, a typical method is to treat cells with drugs that inhibit RNA polymerase II (Pol II) from entering the gene body and then track Pol II using Pro-seq or Gro-seq. However, the downstream data analysis is challenged by the problem of identifying the transition point between the gene regions inhibited by the drug and not, which is necessary to calculate the transcription rate.
