has been reported as a seaweed-associated or marine-derived species with largely unknown secondary metabolites. The combination of bioinformatic analysis and MS- and bioactivity guided separation led to the isolation of a new antibiotically active dialkylresorcin from the marine bacterium . The antibiotic profile of the new dialkylresorcin zobelliphol (1: ) was investigated and compared with related and naturally occurring dialkyresorcins (i.e., stemphol (2: ) and 4-butyl-3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (3: )) from the marine-derived fungus . Bacterial reporter strain assays provided insights into the mode of action of this antibiotic compound class. We identified an interference with bacterial DNA biosynthesis for the dialkylresorcin derivative 1: . In addition, the putative biosynthetic gene cluster corresponding to production of 1: was identified and a biosynthetic hypothesis was deduced.

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by bacteria, affecting humans and a broad range of wild and domestic animals in diverse epidemiological settings (rural, urban, and wild). The disease's pathogenesis and epidemiology are complex networks not fully elucidated. Epidemiology reflects the One Health integrated approach of environment-animal-human interaction, causing severe illness in humans and animals, with consequent public health burdens.

The cycloaddition of aziridines with unsaturated compounds is a valuable method for synthesizing nitrogen heterocycles. However, this process is predominantly substrate-controlled, posing significant challenges in regulating the regioselectivity of the C-N bond cleavage. In this study, we report a nickel-catalyzed dynamic kinetic activation strategy that enables catalyst-controlled activation of aziridines.

Ecosystem services provided by terrestrial biomes, such as moisture recycling and carbon assimilation, are crucial components of the water, energy, and biogeochemical cycles. These biophysical processes are influenced by climate variability driven by distant ocean-atmosphere interactions, commonly referred to as teleconnections. This study aims to identify which teleconnections most significantly affect key biophysical processes in South America's two largest biomes: The Amazon and Cerrado.

Stroke is a condition characterized by damage to the cerebral vasculature from various causes, resulting in focal or widespread brain tissue damage. Prior neuroimaging research has demonstrated that individuals with stroke present structural and functional brain abnormalities, evident through disruptions in motor, cognitive, and other vital functions. Nevertheless, there is a lack of studies on alterations in static and dynamic functional network connectivity in the brains of stroke patients.

Lorchels, also known as false morels (Gyromitra sensu lato), are iconic due to their brain-shaped mushrooms and production of gyromitrin, a deadly mycotoxin. Molecular phylogenetic studies have hitherto failed to resolve deep-branching relationships in the lorchel family, Discinaceae, hampering our ability to settle longstanding taxonomic debates and to reconstruct the evolution of toxin production. We generated 75 draft genomes from cultures and ascomata (some collected as early as 1960), conducted phylogenomic analyses using 1542 single-copy orthologs to infer the early evolutionary history of lorchels, and identified genomic signatures of trophic mode and mating-type loci to better understand lorchel ecology and reproductive biology.
