Protein crystallization is a rare event yet Ym1 crystals made from a chitinase-like protein are abundantly found in eosinophilic airway inflammation, where they promote type 2 immunity.

A structural and biochemical study reveals the molecular mechanism of the predator–prey associations of Aplysia kurodai and brown algae (akuBGL–phlorotannin/laminarin–EHEP system), which has high-potential applications in the biotechnology industry.

Genetic analyses reveal the importance of dynamic protein processing at the apical cell membrane in response to forces damaging cell membranes during tube expansion in tubular organs.

Coral symbiotic alga is capable of degrading the own cell wall components by cellulase-related enzymes and releasing sugars as a simple and autonomous environmental response, even when the host-derived signals are not present.

A single-cell gene expression atlas in a human parasitic nematode provides new insights into the distribution of anthelmintic targets and the origins of secretory molecules with diagnostic and therapeutic potential at the host–parasite interface.

Using advanced volume electron microscopy, the ultrastructural and spatial organisation of Leishmania parasites strongly adhered to the gut of its sand fly vector was defined.

The transcriptomic and epigenetic landscapes of developing human articular and growth plate cartilage reveal putative gene regulatory networks governing lineage commitment and tissue homeostasis.

An insect-transmissible plant pathogen, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, uniquely excavates hypoxia to increase vector capacity via Muc91C-enhanced elasticity of tracheal tubes.

A remarkable case of the common evolutionary origin of a prominent spider venom component.

Unsupervised machine learning on the ultrastructure and shape of cells in volume electron microscopy yields a compact representation of cellular morphology that complements genetics-based cell type characterisation.
