Research Process Graph: LLM-Driven Extraction and Hierarchical Organization of Research Logic

110,000 Q/M/F nodes and >126,000 directed Q[->]M[->]F chains with>98% precision. A second LLM pass generalises each node into a paper-independent canonical form and assigns it to one of 10 top-level (L1) and ~90 sub-level (L2) categories for each node type, producing the first comprehensive map of plant-biology research logic at the resolution of individual research questions. The atlas reveals that Plant Cell papers fall into seven canonical paper recipes with characteristic Q[->]M[->]F sub-structures, that peripheral experimental techniques have largely turned over while a stable methodological core persisted, and that the strongest correlate of per-PI citation impact is methodological breadth, not productivity or topical breadth. We release the atlas as a public, browsable database with five complementary interfaces: paper views, an LLM-powered research assistant, expert profiles, a taxonomy browser, and a method explorer. The database, available at https://rpg.connectome.tools/, turns the literature into a queryable community resource.

95%) fell in shared OTUs, so method-unique detections are predominantly rare taxa. We discuss the complementary value of eRNA for marine monitoring, with the seagrass habitat - where eRNA reduced masking by terrestrial plant material - as the clearest use case, and propose, rather than prescribe, the integration of eRNA into routine programs.

Mapping the genetic landscape of the DNA damage response with Cas12a-based combinatorial knockout screens

27,000 DDR gene pair combinations under unperturbed cell growth conditions. From this analysis, we identified over 750 high-confidence positive (buffering) or negative (synthetic lethal/sick) gene-gene interactions, along with multiple connections between previously unlinked DDR pathways and modules, allowing us to define novel aspects of the cellular response to spontaneous, DNA replication-associated DNA damage. Among the identified genetic interactions, we uncovered profound synthetic lethal interactions between genes encoding 1) the translesion polymerase REV1-Pol {zeta} complex and the MCM8-MCM9-HROB DNA helicase complex; 2) Fanconi Anemia (FA) proteins and the mitotic DNA repair factors GEN1, CIP2A, and RHINO; and 3) the DNA translocase SMARCAL1 and components of the FANCM complex, suggesting novel opportunities for targeted therapies in tumors carrying mutations in these genes. Additionally, we identified robust suppressor interactions between the DCLRE1B gene encoding the nuclease APOLLO and the core non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) genes XRCC4, LIG4, and NHEJ1, suggesting that NHEJ impairs the fitness of APOLLO-deficient cells. This work provides a functional map of the DDR network and demonstrates the power of Cas12a-based screens for identifying synthetic lethal and buffering interactions with therapeutic potential.
