Sobhy I, Goelen T, Wackers F, Verstrepen K, Wenseleers T, Jacquemyn H, et al.
J Chem Ecol . 2025 Mar; 51(2):29. PMID: 40047954
Nectar yeasts can significantly influence the scent of floral nectar and therefore the foraging behavior of flower-visiting insects. While these effects likely depend on nectar chemistry and yeast species, their...

Dzialo M, Arumugam S, Piampongsant S, Cool L, Vanderaa C, Herrera-Malaver B, et al.
iScience . 2024 Nov; 27(11):111141. PMID: 39524341
Volatile aroma compounds are important chemical cues for insects. Behavioral responses to specific odors differ strongly between insect species, and the exact causative molecules are often unknown. Beer is frequently...

Bakhshi Sichani S, Khorshid M, Yongabi D, Urban C, Schreurs M, Verstrepen K, et al.
ACS Sens . 2024 Jul; 9(8):3967-3978. PMID: 39079008
This article reports on a bioanalytical sensor device that hosts three different transducer principles: impedance spectroscopy, quartz-crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring, and the thermal-current-based heat-transfer method. These principles utilize a...

Dok R, Vanderwaeren L, Verstrepen K, Nuyts S
Cancers (Basel) . 2024 Jun; 16(11). PMID: 38893080
Photon-based radiotherapy (XRT) is one of the most frequently used treatment modalities for HPV-negative and HPV-positive locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). However, locoregional recurrences and normal...

Tawfeeq M, Voordeckers K, van den Berg P, Govers S, Michiels J, Verstrepen K
EMBO J . 2024 May; 43(12):2294-2307. PMID: 38719995
Organisms rely on mutations to fuel adaptive evolution. However, many mutations impose a negative effect on fitness. Cells may have therefore evolved mechanisms that affect the phenotypic effects of mutations,...

Schreurs M, Piampongsant S, Roncoroni M, Cool L, Herrera-Malaver B, Vanderaa C, et al.
Nat Commun . 2024 Mar; 15(1):2368. PMID: 38531860
The perception and appreciation of food flavor depends on many interacting chemical compounds and external factors, and therefore proves challenging to understand and predict. Here, we combine extensive chemical and...

Eerlings R, Gupta P, Lee X, Nguyen T, El Kharraz S, Handle F, et al.
Protein Sci . 2024 Mar; 33(4):e4940. PMID: 38511482
Estrogen receptor α is commonly used in synthetic biology to control the activity of genome editing tools. The activating ligands, estrogens, however, interfere with various cellular processes, thereby limiting the...

Zimmermann A, Prieto-Vivas J, Voordeckers K, Bi C, Verstrepen K
Trends Microbiol . 2024 Mar; 32(9):884-901. PMID: 38493013
The natural process of evolutionary adaptation is often exploited as a powerful tool to obtain microbes with desirable traits. For industrial microbes, evolutionary engineering is often used to generate variants...

Cautereels C, Smets J, De Saeger J, Cool L, Zhu Y, Zimmermann A, et al.
Nat Commun . 2024 Feb; 15(1):1113. PMID: 38326330
Site-specific recombinases such as the Cre-LoxP system are routinely used for genome engineering in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Importantly, recombinases complement the CRISPR-Cas toolbox and provide the additional benefit of...

Cautereels C, Smets J, Bircham P, De Ruysscher D, Zimmermann A, De Rijk P, et al.
Nat Commun . 2024 Feb; 15(1):1112. PMID: 38326309
Microbes are increasingly employed as cell factories to produce biomolecules. This often involves the expression of complex heterologous biosynthesis pathways in host strains. Achieving maximal product yields and avoiding build-up...
