NewsBacterial small noncoding RNA promotes gut colonization by regulating sialic acid metabolism
A novel 3′ UTR-derived small noncoding RNA was discovered to regulate metabolism of N-acetylneuraminic acid in Salmonella enterica pathogenesis.

NewsScientists discover and engineer ChCas12b for precise genome editing
Researchers have developed a highly specific Cas12b nuclease—ChCas12b-D496A, capable of distinguishing single-base mutations. This expands the targeting range of gene editing and demonstrates broad prospects for gene therapy applications.

NewsNew study traces impact of COVID-19 pandemic on global movement and evolution of seasonal flu
Seasonal flu showed a ‘remarkable’ bounce back to pre-pandemic levels once international air travel resumed, according to a new study. Regions with fewer COVID-19 restrictions were associated with sustained flu virus transmission.

NewsVps21 signaling pathway regulates white-opaque switching and mating in Candida albicans
Researchers have discovered that the conserved Vps21 signaling pathway plays critical roles in the regulation of white-opaque switching and mating in Candida albicans, a major human fungal pathogen.

NewsScientists unveil hepatitis B virus core protein as a Rab-GAP suppressor driving liver disease progression
In liver cells under oxidative stress, HBV core protein (HBc) perturbs mitochondrial dynamics and prevents cellular recycling of damaged mitochondria, thereby driving liver disease progression, a new study finds.

NewsBirth by C-section more than doubles odds of measles vaccine failure
Researchers say it is vital that children born by caesarean section receive two doses of the measles vaccine for robust protection against the disease.

NewsSafety, immunogenicity and preliminary efficacy of a randomized clinical trial of omicron XBB.1.5-containing bivalent mRNA vaccine
This study reported a very comprehensive evaluation of neutralization against 9 different SARS-CoV-2 variants by three types of variant vaccines of the same delivery system in a head-to-head design.
