By carefully controlling ionic strength, and/or by mutating interface residues by design, it is possible to make high quality, highly immunogenic VLPs directly from unpurified bacterial lysate, without requiring the use of a disassembly/reassembly step.

The emergence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens, particularly methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), represents a major public health threat, with limited treatment options. Bacteriophage-derived endolysins and their engineered chimeric derivatives have attracted attention as alternative antibacterial agen...

MOTIVATION
Comparison of macromolecular structural models requires similarity measures that remain informative for complexes, interfaces, and binding sites. Widely used scores emphasize global superposition or distance deviations and are not designed primarily for direct assessment of contact patterns. A fast and flexi...
ABSTRACT Heterologous expression—the expression of genes from one organism into another—is an important approach to produce value-added chemicals such as proteins and metabolites. The main challenge, however, is achieving high production yields that are commercially viable. Approaches used to improve productivity rely...

Abstract Proteins evolve allosteric mechanisms through sequence variation while preserving a conserved structural fold. How these substitutions reshape the protein's conformational landscape to drive functional diversification remains poorly understood. Members of the cAMP receptor protein family (CRP), a ubiquitous ba...

MOTIVATION
A central challenge in protein-ligand modelling is to predict not only the presence of an interaction, but also the correct ligand identity, binding-site location, and biologically relevant bound conformation. While recent deep learning approaches such as AlphaFold3 and Boltz-2 have demonstrated impressive a...

Ion-pairs are central charged motifs that control the biological function of several proteins. Yet, the physical principles linked to the formation of ion-pairs during protein folding remain poorly understood. Here, we show that buried ion-pairs of de novo-designed helical bundle proteins reshape the folding pathways b...

Purpose. To determine which proposed keratoconus (KC) mechanisms carry its genetic susceptibility and how it relates to corneal structure, and which describe its corneal tissue. Methods. Six mechanism modules and two attribution sets (transforming growth factor-β [TGF-β] and canonical type-2 atopy) were tested for enri...

Introduction. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) toxicology has been primarily defined by host metabolic bioactivation to reactive intermediates. Yet ingested PAHs and biliary-delivered metabolites also enter the intestinal lumen, where they encounter the gut microbiota, an additional but understudied metabolic comp...

Data and code for a cutoff-controlled benchmark of 26 cysteine-targeted covalent protein–ligand complexes, all X-ray structures at 1.1–1.82 Å released after the Chai-1 training cutoff of 30 September 2021. Three predictors are scored on identical inputs: co-folding (Chai-1 v0.6.1), blind docking (smina, Vina scoring) a...
