Parkinson's Disease Appears to Hinge on Activity of Energy-Production Enzyme Recent findings from a preclinical study conducted by Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have uncovered a pivotal role of the enzyme PGK1 in brain cell energy production, offering new hope for Parkinson’s disease treatment. The study reveals that enhancing PGK1 activity could counteract the energy deficits in dopamine neurons.

Single-Cell Resolution Mapping of Malaria Parasites Sheds Light on Disease Transmission To transmit from the human host to the mosquito vector, P. falciparum has to differentiate to the gametocyte stage. A study at Stockholms universitet uncovered genes expressed in P. falciparum from the onset of sexual stage development until they reach maturity. At this point, the male and female gametocytes are ready to be taken up by the female Anopheles mosquito in order to initiate the transmission cycle.

Green Plastics from Purple Bacteria More sustainable, more biodegradable, and less toxic PHA-based plastics could be produced by purple nonsulfur bacteria. Although these organisms have performed poorly in production scenarios thus far, two new studies from scientists at Washington University in St. Louis have uncovered propitious growing conditions and identified production-enhancing genetic modifications.
