Flavoproteins as probes for in cell ESR spectroscopy

The drugs, sutezolid and delpazolid, have demonstrated strong antimicrobial activity and a notably better safety profile compared to linezolid, with the potential to replace this current cornerstone in the treatment of drug-resistant TB.

The findings were published in two articles in The Lancet Infectious Diseases. Research partners in Europe included Radboud University Medical Center in the Netherlands and the German Center for Infection Research (DZIF), Munich, the Fraunhofer Institute for Translational Medicine and Pharmacology ITMP, the Center for International Health at LMU University Hospital and Helmholtz Munich.

A mysterious mineral in asteroid Ryugu may rewrite planetary history

Serendipitous discovery of djerfisherite in Ryugu grain challenges current paradigm of the nature of primitive asteroids. A surprising discovery from a tiny grain of asteroid Ryugu has rocked scientists’ understanding of how our Solar System evolved. Researchers found djerfisherite—a mineral typically born in scorching, chemically reduced conditions and never before seen in Ryugu-like meteorites—inside a sample returned by Japan’s Hayabusa2 mission. Its presence suggests either Ryugu once experienced unexpectedly high temperatures or that exotic materials from other parts of the solar system somehow made their way into its formation. Like discovering a palm tree fossil in Arctic ice, this rare find challenges everything we thought we knew about primitive asteroids and the early mixing of planetary ingredients.

The pristine samples from asteroid Ryugu returned by the Hayabusa2 mission on December 6, 2020, have been vital to improving our understanding of primitive asteroids and the formation of the Solar System. The C-type asteroid Ryugu is composed of rocks similar to meteorites called CI chondrites, which contain relatively high amounts of carbon, and have undergone extensive aqueous alteration in their past.

A research team at Hiroshima University discovered the presence of the mineral djerfisherite, a potassium-containing iron-nickel sulfide, in a Ryugu grain. The presence of this mineral is wholly unexpected, as djerfisherite does not form under the conditions Ryugu is believed to have been exposed to over its existence. The findings were published on May 28, 2025, in the journal Meteoritics & Planetary Science.

Practical changes could reduce AI energy demand by up to 90%

Artificial intelligence (AI) can be made more sustainable by making practical changes, such as reducing the number of decimal places used in AI models, shortening responses, and using smaller AI models, according to research from UCL published in a new UNESCO report.

In recent years, the use of generative AI has expanded rapidly, with (LLMs) developed by companies such as OpenAI, Meta and Google becoming household names. For example, OpenAI’s ChatGPT service, powered by the GPT-4 LLM, receives about 1 billion queries each day.

Each generation of LLMs has become more sophisticated than the last, better able to perform tasks like text generation or knowledge retrieval. This has led to a vast and increasing demand on resources such as electricity and water, which are needed to run the data centers where these AI models are trained and deployed.

Efficient mRNA delivery to resting T cells to reverse HIV latency

A major hurdle to curing HIV is the persistence of integrated proviruses in resting CD4+ T cells that remain in a transcriptionally silent, latent state. One strategy to eradicate latent HIV is to activate viral transcription, followed by elimination of infected cells through virus-mediated cytotoxicity or immune-mediated clearance. We hypothesised that mRNA-lipid nanoparticle (LNP) technology would provide an opportunity to deliver mRNA encoding proteins able to reverse HIV latency in resting CD4+ T cells. Here we develop an LNP formulation (LNP X) with unprecedented potency to deliver mRNA to hard-to-transfect resting CD4+ T cells in the absence of cellular toxicity or activation. Encapsulating an mRNA encoding the HIV Tat protein, an activator of HIV transcription, LNP X enhances HIV transcription in ex vivo CD4+ T cells from people living with HIV. LNP X further enables the delivery of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) activation machinery to modulate both viral and host gene transcription. These findings offer potential for the development of a range of nucleic acid-based T cell therapeutics.


Resting T cells are difficult to manipulate, and are a reservoir for latent HIV. Here, the authors develop a lipid nanoparticle formulation with the ability to transfect resting primary human T cells, enabling delivery of mRNAs that result in reactivation of latent HIV. This could help development of HIV cure strategies.

Precision at the smallest scale

Imagine a high-tech workshop where scientists and engineers craft objects so small they can’t be seen with the naked eye — or even a standard microscope. These tiny structures — nanostructures — are thousands of times smaller than a strand of hair. And they are essential for faster computers, better smartphones and life-saving medical devices.

Nanostructures are at the core of the research happening every day in the Washington Nanofabrication Facility (WNF). Part of the Institute for Nano-Engineered Systems at the UW and located in Fluke Hall, the WNF supports cutting-edge academic and industry research, prototyping and hands-on student training. Like many leading nanofabrication centers, it is part of the National Science Foundation’s National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure, a network that shares expertise and resources.

New lithium-sulfur battery for electric cars reduces charging time to 12 minutes

Researchers from Germany, India and Taiwan have presented the concept of lithium-sulfur batteries for electric cars, which will reduce the full charging time to less than 30 minutes.

With the global transition to electric transportation, reducing battery charging time remains one of the key challenges for developers and researchers around the world. Modern Li-ion batteries can be charged from 20 to 80% in about 20–30 minutes, but full charging takes much longer. Meanwhile, high-speed charging leads to a shorter battery life.

The study, conducted by researchers from Kiel University and their colleagues from India and Taiwan, suggests that lithium-sulfur batteries can solve the existing problems. The international study led by Dr Mozaffar Abdollahifar provides a detailed description of how lithium-sulfur batteries can overcome the limitations of current Li-ion batteries in terms of performance and charging time.
