The gut microbiota is known to be associated with a variety of human metabolic diseases, including metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis (MASH). Fungi are increasingly recognized as important members of this community; however, the role of … ​The gut microbiota is known to be associated with a variety of human metabolic diseases, including metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis (MASH)….

It’s been 11 years since Science’s last print redesign. Much has changed since then—in how Science is communicated, how readers engage with content, and how Science itself is produced. ​It’s been 11 years since Science’s last print redesign.

Stem cells are a promising source for cellular therapies across many diseases and tissues. Their inherent ability to differentiate into other cell types has been the focus of investigation over decades. This ability is currently being exploited for … ​Stem cells are a promising source for cellular therapies across many diseases and tissues. Their inherent…

Although understanding deep-sea ecosystems will require decades of additional scientific work (1), activation for the first time of the socalled “2-year rule” (2) in 2021 has put pressure on the International Seabed Authority (ISA) to rush the creation and adoption of a mining code. Negotiations related to mining in international waters should not be subject…

The ability to study proteins in their native cellular context is crucial to our understanding of biology. In this work, we report a technology for intracellular protein editing, drawing from split intein–mediated protein splicing, genetic code expansion,… ​The ability to study proteins in their native cellular context is crucial to our understanding of biology.
