The NIN transcription factor coordinates CEP and CLE signaling peptides that regulate nodulation antagonistically by Carole Laffont, Ariel Ivanovici, Pierre Gautrat, Mathias Brault, Michael Anthony Djordjevic, Florian Frugier

“…Abstract Legumes tightly regulate nodule number to balance the cost of supporting symbiotic rhizobia with the benefits of nitrogen fixation. C-terminally Encoded Peptides (CEPs) and CLAVATA3-like (CLE) peptides positively and negatively regulate nodulation, respectively, through independent systemic pathways, but how these regulations are coordinated remains unknown. …”

Novel cycloviruses identified by mining human blood metagenomic data show close relationship to those from animals by Yuanqing Wang, Yuanqing Wang, Xiaojie Jiang, Yuan Xi, Siqi Wei, Songyi Ning, Wen Zhang, Wen Zhang

“…We used viral metagenomics to mine, analyze, and visualize the human blood virome, successfully identifying three new genomes, each encoding Rep and Capsid proteins. These proteins are crucial for viral replication and host-cell interaction: the Rep protein is involved in initiating viral genome replication, while the Capsid protein plays a key role in the assembly of new virions and the virus's ability to interact with host immune systems. …”
