DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-91938-1
Abstract: The spotted wing Drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) is an invasive pest of soft-skinned fruit crops. It is rapidly transmitted in Europe and North America, causing widespread agricultural losses. Genetic control strategies such as the sterile insect… read more here.

DOI: 10.1039/d5sm01047k
Abstract: Nature routinely exploits liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of proteins to control the assembly and mineralization of hybrid materials. Here, we show that fusion of the Car9 silica-binding peptide to an elastin-like polypeptide (ELP) yields temperature-… read more here.
