New Protein Vostok Found to Influence DNA Loop Formation in Fruit Fly Neurons
A newly discovered protein, Vostok, found in Drosophila fruit fly brains, plays a crucial role in the three-dimensional structure of DNA within neurons; disrupting the Vostok gene in fruit fly larvae resulted in a 7% reduction in DNA loops and ultimately death.

New Antiviral Mechanism Discovered in Bacteria
Chinese scientists discovered CRISPR-CAAD, a new bacterial antiviral mechanism that converts ATP into toxic ITP, hindering phage reproduction and allowing bacteria to resist infection by entering a temporary dormancy state; this finding, published in Science, may lead to new anti-infective drugs.
