Summary: In this study, G-quadruplex (G4) motifs were identified in the genome of Spodoptera frugiperda, and it was found that they were enriched in genic regions, particularly in the upstream regions of start codons. The G4 structures were more frequently present in the promoters of P450 and CarE gene families. Furthermore, the G4 ligand N-methyl mesoporphyrin IX (NMM) was shown to decrease P450 protein activity in larval midgut tissue, and it had synergistic effects with pesticides on toxicity. These findings suggest that G4 motifs could serve as a potential target for pest control.

Summary: A sequence-specific visualization method based on loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) was developed for the detection of Salmonella in milk. The method used restriction endonuclease and nicking endonuclease to produce amplicons into single-stranded triggers, which further promoted the generation of a G-quadruplex by a DNA machine. The G-quadruplex DNAzyme possessed peroxidase-like activity and catalyzed the color development of ABTS as the readouts. The method demonstrated a sensitivity of 800 CFU/mL when observed with the naked eye and could detect Salmonella in milk within 1.5 h without the need for any sophisticated instrument.

Summary: Mancozeb, a commonly used antifungal for fruit growth, can bind to the waxy components of fruits and has non-internal absorption. This study investigated the interaction between pesticide molecules and the waxy layer on grape surfaces and their impact on pesticide residues. Significant changes in the composition of the grape surface waxy layer were observed after soaking in a mancozeb solution, and molecular docking revealed hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces between mancozeb and the waxy components. The presence or absence of wax affected the determination of mancozeb residues, with significantly lower deposition in grapes after dewaxing.

Summary: The effect and mechanism of ultrasound on the biodegradation of profenofos by Lactiplantibacillus plantarum were investigated in this study. Ultrasound applied during the prelogarithmic phase of microbial growth significantly enhanced the biodegradation of profenofos. The key ultrasonic parameters were optimized using the response surface methodology, and the Holden model was used to describe the growth of L. plantarum and the biodegradation of profenofos. Under optimal ultrasonic conditions, the specific growth rate of L. plantarum and the specific degradation rate of profenofos were significantly increased compared to without sonication, attributed to the enhancement of phosphatase activity and the improvement of cell membrane permeability.
