Knowledge about how and where proteins interact provides a pillar for cell biology. Protein proximity-labeling has emerged as an important tool to detect protein interactions. Biotin-related proximity labeling approaches are by far the most commonly used but may have labeling-related drawbacks.

Membranes are organized into diverse domains giving rise to dynamic molecular patchworks. However, the very definition of membrane domains has been the subject of continuous debate.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAminophosphonates, like glyphosate (GS) or metal chelators such as ethylenediaminetetra(methylenephosphonic acid) (EDTMP), are released on a large scale worldwide. Here, we have characterized a bacterial strain capable of degrading synthetic aminophosphonates. The strain was isolated from LC/MS standard solution.

- The term "biosignature" is crucial in astrobiology, linking observations to possible biological causes, but its definitions vary across scientific communities.
- There are concerns that current definitions may overstate certainty and create confusion, especially since the distinction between life and non-life is not always clear.
- The authors propose that scientists should be cautious with the term, define it explicitly, and use a checklist for evaluating biosignature claims to enhance communication and understanding in the field.
