Phase separation of a microtubule plus-end tracking protein into a fluid fractal network by Mateusz P. Czub, Federico Uliana, Tarik Grubić, Celestino Padeste, Kathryn A. Rosowski, Charlotta Lorenz, Eric R. Dufresne, Andreas Menzel, Ioannis Vakonakis, Urs Gasser, Michel O. Steinmetz

“…Here, we have study the phase separation of Bik1, a CLIP-170 family member and key +TIP involved in budding yeast cell division. Bik1 is a dimer with a rod-shaped conformation primarily defined by its central coiled-coil domain. …”

Engineering artificial photosynthetic life-forms through endosymbiosis by Jay Cournoyer, Sarah D. Altman, Yang-le Gao, Catherine L. Wallace, Dianwen Zhang, Guo-Hsuen Lo, Noah T. Haskin, Angad P. Mehta

“…Here, we design and engineer artificial, genetically tractable, photosynthetic endosymbiosis between photosynthetic cyanobacteria and budding yeasts. We engineer various mutants of model photosynthetic cyanobacteria as endosymbionts within yeast cells where, the engineered cyanobacteria perform bioenergetic functions to support the growth of yeast cells under defined photosynthetic conditions. …”

Probable Pulmonary Blastomycosis in a Wild Coyote (Canis latrans) by Luis E. Rodríguez-Tovar, Alicia M. Nevárez-Garza, Ricardo Vladimir Barajas-Juárez, Juan J. Zarate-Ramos, Rogelio A. Ledezma-Torres, Armando Trejo-Chávez

“…Broad-based single budding yeasts were occasionally present. Based on the microscopic findings of the pulmonary lesions and the morphological features of the organism, a diagnosis of chronic pyogranulomatous pneumonia caused by Blastomyces dermatitidis was made. …”

Introducing carbon assimilation in yeasts using photosynthetic directed endosymbiosis by Yang-le Gao, Jay Cournoyer, Bidhan C. De, Catherine L. Wallace, Alexander V. Ulanov, Michael R. La Frano, Angad P. Mehta

“…Here, we develop a directed endosymbiosis approach to introduce carbon assimilation in budding yeasts. Particularly, we engineer carbon assimilating and sugar-secreting photosynthetic cyanobacterial endosymbionts within the yeast cells, which results in the generation of yeast/cyanobacteria chimeras that propagate under photosynthetic conditions in the presence of CO2 and in the absence of feedstock carbon sources like glucose or glycerol. …”
