Cold-water coral reefs host diverse microbial communities that play key roles in nutrient cycling and deep-sea productivity. Among them, methylotrophic bacteria metabolize and cycle one-carbon (C1) co...
The Greenland shark (Somniosus microcephalus) is known for its slow metabolism and deep-sea habitat. It is thought to be the longest-lived vertebrate on Earth, with an estimated lifespan of 392 ± 120 ...
Marine algal viruses exhibit a high level of diversity, and closely related viruses targeting the same algal host species can stably coexist. Here we report an example of a single virus-host system co...
Shewanella sp. FeAMO (=MCCC M27737) and Shewanella sp. JL219SE-S6 (=MCCC M29292) were isolated from hydrothermal sediments from Wocan-1 hydrothermal field (6°22'N, 60°32'E, at a depth of 2995 m) and T...
This study investigated the short‑term effects of polyethylene microplastics (PE‑MPs) on the marine mussel Mytilus edulis using a suite of cellular and subcellular biomarkers. A total of 225 mussels w...
Genomic foundation models trained on DNA sequences have demonstrated remarkable capabilities across diverse biological tasks, from variant effect prediction to genome design. These models are typicall...
Biological AI models increasingly predict complex cellular responses, yet their learned representations remain disconnected from the molecular processes they aim to capture. We present CDT-III, whic...
Nanopore sequencing can read substantially longer sequences of nucleic acid molecules than other sequencing methods, which has led to advances in genomic analysis such as the gapless human genome asse...
Bacterial phase variation enables reversible, locus-specific phenotypic switching, often driven by DNA inversion (invertons). To identify these events, researchers commonly rely on sequencing reads th...
Urbanization is rapidly expanding along the world's coasts, transforming natural ecosystems into increasingly uniform artificial environments. Yet, the patterns and processes shaping marine biodiversi...
The Mediterranean Sea is a biodiversity hotspot that requires frequent monitoring to detect ecological changes and support conservation. Within this context, the Strait of Sicily (SoS), which forms th...
