Antibiotics were supposed to kill them. Instead, they thrived—together.🦠A new #PKUResearch shows that freshwater algae and bacteria can cooperate in response to antibiotics, turning growth inhibition into stimulation.

GSD-Ib is caused by dysfunction of the ER transporter SLC37A4. A #PKUResearch has now resolved its key structural states using cryo-EM, showing how the protein switches between conformations to transport G6P and Pi, and how an inhibitor blocks this process.

“People won’t be using this device in 50 years. They’ll still be reading Confucius.”

Scholars at #BeijingForum2025 got real about AI and what actually lasts.

Ouch. But fair. 📱📚
