arXiv:2411.08909v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-supervised training of language models (LMs) has seen great success for protein sequences in learning meaningful representations and for generative drug design. Most protein LMs are based on the Transformer architecture trained on individual proteins with short context lengths. Such protein LMs cannot extrapolate to longer proteins and protein complexes well. They also fail to account for the underlying biological mechanisms carried out by biomolecular interactions and dynamics i.e., proteins often interact with other proteins, molecules, and pathways in complex biological systems. In this work, we propose LC-PLM based on an alternative protein LM architecture, BiMamba-S, built off selective structured state-space models, to learn high-quality universal protein representations at the amino acid token level using masked language modeling. We also introduce its graph-contextual variant, LC-PLM-G, which contextualizes protein-protein

This article was previously published July 3, 2019, and has been updated with new information. For years, I have advocated for an organic diet to optimize your health, avoid common health problems and help regenerate the environment. Choosing organic foods reduces your exposure to pesticides, herbicides, genetically engineered (GE) foods, synthetic food additives and nano ingredients, many of which do not appear on the food label. In addition to protecting the environment and rebuilding soil, buying organic also supports animal welfare and promotes biodiversity of plants and wildlife. Unfortunately, Americans not only eat a preponderance of processed food, but 57.9% of it is ultraprocessed 1 — products at the far end of the "significantly altered" spectrum that have been robustly linked to obesity, 2 ill health and early death in a number of studies. 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 The developed world in general
I recently spoke with Ronnie Cummins, cofounder and international director of the Organic Consumers Association (OCA), in honor of Regenerative Food and Farming Week. OCA is one of the philanthropic organizations that we support, and Cummins shared some exciting updates in the field of organic and biodynamic agriculture. One of OCA’s major endeavors is the Billion Agave Project, an ecosystem-regeneration strategy being used by Mexican farms in Guanajuato, a high-desert region. 1 Cummins was in San Miguel, Mexico, when we spoke, which was right in the middle of the dry season. As Cummins explains, there’s typically no rain in the region for eight months out of the year, and since 86% of Mexican farmers don’t have a well, the use of organic and regenerative farming techniques is very important for good production and to improve the environment. 2 ‘Regeneration’ Being Used for Greenwashing When you hear terms like regenerative agriculture, it’s important
The protein in sea lettuce, a type of seaweed, is a promising complement to both meat and other current alternative protein sources. Seaweed also contains many other important nutrients, and is grown without needing to be watered, fertilized or sprayed with insecticides.

arXiv:2410.13685v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Assessing the quality of bovine satellite cells (BSCs) is essential for the cultivated meat industry, which aims to address global food sustainability challenges. This study aims to develop a label-free method for predicting fluorescence markers in isolated BSCs using deep learning. We employed a U-Net-based CNN model to predict multiple fluorescence signals from a single bright-field microscopy image of cell culture. Two key biomarkers, DAPI and Pax7, were used to determine the abundance and quality of BSCs. The image pre-processing pipeline included fluorescence denoising to improve prediction performance and consistency. A total of 48 biological replicates were used, with statistical performance metrics such as Pearson correlation coefficient and SSIM employed for model evaluation. The model exhibited better performance with DAPI predictions due to uniform staining. Pax7 predictions were more variable, reflecting biological

Cheese has been a staple in human diets for millennia. However, the advent of industrial cheese production has dramatically altered its quality, making real, traditional cheese increasingly hard to find in the U.S. Instead, the market is now flooded with cheese made using synthetic, lab-produced rennet, which alters its nutritional profile and fails to match the quality and benefits of traditionally made cheese. Fortunately, exciting developments are underway to make high-quality cheese more accessible to a broader audience. This initiative is spearheaded by Ashley Armstrong, cofounder of Angel Acres Egg Co., which specializes in low-PUFA (polyunsaturated fat) eggs, and the Nourish Cooperative, which provides some of the healthiest food in the United States. Ashley is also an expert on the late Dr. Ray Peat’s principles of bioenergetic medicine.

Long-read sequencing showed the eGFP-containing plasmid also had the ref1 promoter and the cbh1 terminator in the genome of eight transformed strains. Importantly, the eGFP expression cassette consistently integrated upstream of the tef1 promoter, even without two homologous flanks, a team reported. This result suggests that the use of the tef1 promoter may favor multicopy insertion and, therefore, promote a higher expression for heterologous genes.

The startup’s CEO sees working with farmers and processors who could use a percentage of cultivated meat in their products as a solution to many of the industry’s issues.
Last August, stem cell biologist and bit.bio founder Mark Kotter launched a new startup with an ambitious goal: within a year, to identify every gene that plays a role in restoring or repairing aging cells. That company, called clock.bio, says it has identified a list of 140 genes that it calls the “Atlas of Rejuvenation Factors.” The startup isn’t naming any of the genes yet, but it’s going through them one by one to come up with the top 10 that it believes will make good drug targets. “We see a couple of genes that you would expect,” Markus Gstöttner, who was appointed CEO of clock.bio in March, told Endpoints News in an exclusive interview. “Then there are other genes that are kind of much less well understood, and on all of them, we want to understand how the pathways work at a cellular level.” Gstöttner, who co-founded the lab-grown meat startup Meatable with Kotter in 2018, said that clock.bio views itself as a “faster, smaller, more nimble”

The organic food industry has grown tremendously over the past few decades, but concerns remain about the integrity of organic labeling and certification. In my eye-opening interview with organic industry watchdog Mark Kastel, he discusses the challenges facing organic consumers and farmers, offering insights on how to find truly healthy, ethically produced food. Kastel co-founded The Cornucopia Institute, which celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2024, and is also executive director and founder of OrganicEye. He notes that while the 1990 Organic Foods Production Act was well-intentioned, its implementation has been problematic: 1 "Congress, in 1990, passed the organic foods production act. It gave the USDA [U.S. Department of Agriculture] the responsibility to protect industry stakeholders, so farmers, ethical business people and eaters, consumers, protect them from unfair competition and fraud.

Proteins are among the most important molecular building blocks of life. They themselves are built from amino acids linked together based on the information in our genetic material. In this process, the genetic code is translated into a sequence of amino acids. However, this translation is only the first step. Often, special enzymes modify the new (nascent) proteins as they leave their cellular production site—the ribosome. Only after this can the proteins fulfill their diverse biological functions.
