Native H₂ pathways enable biocompatible hydrogenation of metabolic alkenes in bacteria

Most H₂ used in the chemical industry is derived from fossil fuels. Now it has been shown that coupling native microbial H₂ pathways with engineered alkene biosynthesis and membrane-bound Pd catalysis enables biocompatible hydrogenation of metabolic intermediates in living bacteria. This hybrid chemo-microbial platform supports the carbon-negative synthesis of industrial chemicals from waste-derived feedstocks.

Natural selection contributed to immunological differences between hunter-gatherers and agriculturalists

Variation in responses to bacterial and viral stimuli between Batwa rainforest hunter-gatherers and Bakiga agriculturalists from Uganda suggests population-level divergence under natural selection, with hunter-gatherers disproportionately showing signatures of positive selection.

Timed batch inputs unlock substantially higher yields for enzymatic cascades

Optimizing the performance of complex enzymatic reaction networks remains challenging as hidden interactions and unfavourable kinetic barriers often arise when enzymes operate together in networks. Now a model-guided design strategy for generating time-dependent protocols for batch reactions has been developed. This strategy offers a general approach for optimizing multi-step reaction sequences.

Cross-reactive anti-prophage antibodies and bacterial heteroresistance implicated in phage therapeutic failure

A 22-year-old patient with cystic fibrosis and chronic, drug-resistant Bordetella bronchialis infection received compassionate-use phage therapy. Serum samples revealed that pre-existing antiphage immunity existed before treatment, indicating that future studies must evaluate antiphage immunity across the entire treatment regimen.

Orbital-hybridization-induced Ising-type superconductivity in a confined gallium layer

Orbital hybridization and quantum confinement are used to realize Ising-like superconductivity in trilayers of gallium, which alone is probably not strongly enough spin–orbit coupled to host such superconductivity under high in-plane magnetic fields.

Going beyond gadgets: the importance of scalability for analogue quantum simulators

Analogue quantum simulation has looser experimental requirements than its digital counterpart, but rigorous theoretical results on the capabilities of realisable experiments are scarce. Here, the authors fill this gap by proposing an alternative mathematical framework, and showing how to overcome barriers to scalable implementations using additional resources such as engineered dissipation.

LaccID, an engineered laccase, enables hydrogen-peroxide-free proximity labeling and electron microscopy (EM) in mammalian cells. Notably, LaccID is selectively active at the cell surface, enabling the mapping of the dynamic T cell–tumor surfaceome and its use as a genetically encodable EM tag, expanding the toolkit for cell-based imaging and proteomics.
