鶹ý: Towards a FAIR Database for Molecular Simulations
Released: 29-Apr-2025 5:20 PM EDT
Towards a FAIR Database for Molecular Simulations
Fundació Institut de Recerca Biomèdica (IRB BARCELONA)

More than 100 experts in molecular simulation, coordinated by IRB Barcelona, have published an article in Nature Methods advocating for a paradigm shift in molecular dynamics data management. The article defends the implementation of the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) to improve the reproducibility of calculations and facilitate their later use as a source of information on the flexibility of biomacromolecules. Led by Drs. Modesto Orozco and Adam Hospital, the article proposes the establishment of a shared infrastructure for storing and reusing data in the context of the AI revolution.

New AI technique can uncover antiviral compounds using limited data
Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania

Artificial intelligence algorithms have now been combined with traditional laboratory methods to uncover promising drug leads against human enterovirus 71 (EV71), the pathogen behind most cases of hand, foot and mouth disease. The study, published today in Cell Reports Physical Science by researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, showed that reliable antiviral predictions can be made even when only a modest amount of experimental data are available.

A Scientific Method for Flawless Cacio e Pepe
American Institute of Physics (AIP)

In Physics of Fluids, researchers have developed a foolproof recipe for cacio e pepe, based on their findings studying the physics of mixing cheese in water and determining the mechanism that causes the cheese sauce to go from creamy to clumpy. The team found that a 2%-3% starch-to-cheese ratio produced the smoothest, most uniform sauce; they recommend using powdered starch, rather than relying on an unknown amount of starch in pasta water.

Unlocking Tomato Sweetness: A Gene Boosts Flavor and Shelf Life
Chinese Academy of Sciences

Scientists have identified a key gene that regulates sugar metabolism and dramatically improves tomato fruit quality and resilience after harvest. The gene, known as SlVI, encodes a vacuolar invertase that plays a critical role in converting sucrose into glucose and fructose during fruit ripening. By knocking out SlVI, researchers achieved higher fruit sucrose levels, enhanced firmness, increased resistance to fungal infections, and an extended shelf life. These findings not only reveal new insights into sugar's dual role as both an energy source and signaling molecule but also open avenues for developing tastier and more durable fruits, addressing critical challenges in agriculture and food storage.
