Through multi-faceted comparative analysis of MITEs across six pear genomes, we revealed their distribution patterns, functional impacts and their significant role as genomic origins for miRNAs, with copy number being the most critical factor for MIT...
How does genomic information unfold, to give rise to self-constructing living organisms with problem-solving capacities at all levels of organization? We review recent progress that unifies work in developmental genetics and machine learning (ML) to ...
The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has enabled de novo design of functional proteins, circumventing the reliance on natural templates or sequencing databases. However, current protein design models are ineffective in generating pro...

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global threat, with species contributing significantly to difficult-to-treat infections. The Pen family of β-lactamases are produced by all spp., and their mutation or overproduction leads to the resistance of β-...
UNLABELLED: Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is the most common cancer in people living with HIV (PLWH), particularly in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV or human herpesvirus 8 [HHV-8]) is endemic. In KSHV endemic areas, the overal...

Protein evolution has shaped enzymes that maintain stability and function across diverse thermal environments. While sequence variation, thermal stability and conformational dynamics are known to influence an enzyme's thermal adaptation, how these fa...
Most antibodies for treating COVID-19 rely on binding the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2). However, Omicron and its sub-lineages, as well as other heavily mutated variants, have rendered m...
A comprehensive, computable representation of the functional repertoire of all macromolecules encoded within the human genome is a foundational resource for biology and biomedical research. The Gene Ontology Consortium has been working towards this g...
The unprecedented sequencing efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic paved the way for genomic surveillance to become a powerful tool for monitoring the evolution of circulating viruses. Herein, we discuss how a state-of-the-art artificial intelligence ...
The pursuit of obtaining enzymes with high activity and stability remains a grail in enzyme evolution due to the stability-activity trade-off. Here, we develop an isothermal compressibility-assisted dynamic squeezing index perturbation engineering (i...
