In a paper published in Mycology, Professor Yan Wang’s team found that in both nematode and murine infection models, the lack of MIR1 gene, which encodes mitochondrial phosphate carrier, can lead to severe virulence defects in Candida albicans.

Spontaneous coagulation casting (SCC), a new type of colloidal forming process, has garnered significant attention since 2011 due to various advantages of a high bulk density and non-toxicity, as well as the ability to achieve dispersion and coagulation with very low additions (< 1 wt%) of copolymers of isobutylene and maleic anhydride (PIBM). Spontaneous coagulation casting…
A new genus and species of furileusaurian abelisaurid that lived during the Cretaceous period has been identified from fossilized skeletal remains found in Patagonia, Argentina. The post Fossils from New Species of Carnivorous Dinosaur Discovered in Argentina appeared first on Sci.News: Breaking Science News.

This much we know: When viruses infect bacteria—a common occurrence in oceans, soils, even human guts—the interaction results in the creation of entirely new organisms called “virocells.” But scientists are still learning about how this merger of microbes affects, and is affected by, their surroundings. This much we know: When viruses infect bacteria—a common occurrence in…
With the depletion of fossil fuels and global warming, there is an urgent need to seek green, clean, and efficient energy resources. Against this backdrop, hydrogen is considered a potential candidate for replacing fossil fuels due to its high energy density and environmentally friendly nature. To realize the development of a hydrogen economy, safe and…
CRISPR/Cas9 remains the most powerful tool to generate mutations in plant genomes. Studying the various combinations of mutations has significantly increased the scale of experimental setups, necessitating more space to grow numerous plants.
