Developing cost-effective methods for high throughput production of recombinant baculoviruses in insect cells is very challenging, because the baculovirus DNA preparation and the following transfection procedure are labour-intensive and time consuming. We developed a new method of introducing recombinant Bacmid DNA from bacteria into insect cells simply using invasive diaminopimelate (DAP) auxotrophic Escherichia coli to infectSpodoptera frugiperda 9 cells. The E. coli cells with recombinant Bacmids enter insect cells with the help of the invasion factor from Yersinia pseudotubercolusis. Without DAP in medium, the cell wall of DAP auxotrophic E. coli cannot be synthesized so that the bacterial cell will disrupt and release recombinant Bacmid. The released Bacmids will generate infective recombinant baculovirus particles in insect cells. We combined this E. coli invasion method with the zero background transposition system to generate recombinant baculovirus in a rapid and simple way. Without preparation and purification of recombinant Bacmids from E. coli and the labour-intensive and complex transfection procedure, this transfection reagent free method enables a convenient and economic high throughput production of recombinant baculoviruses.

In , slower development at lower temperatures results in higher brain connectivity, but the generality of such scaling across temperatures and brain regions and its impact on function are unclear. Here, we show that brain connectivity scales continuously across temperatures, in agreement with a first-principle model that postulates different metabolic constraints for the growth of the brain and the organism.

Noncoding satellite DNA repeats are abundant at the pericentromeric heterochromatin of eukaryotic chromosomes. During interphase, sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins cluster these repeats from multiple chromosomes into nuclear foci known as chromocenters. Despite the pivotal role of chromocenters in cellular processes like genome encapsulation and gene repression, the associated proteins remain incompletely characterized.

Bacterial-fungal interaction (BFI) has significant implications for the health of host plants. While the diffusible antibiotic metabolite-mediated competition in BFI has been extensively characterized, the impact of intercellular contact remains largely elusive. Here, we demonstrate that the intercellular contact is a prevalent mode of interaction between beneficial soil bacteria and pathogenic filamentous fungi.
