SynFarsa is characterized, a synthetic circRNA-derived IRES-like element that promotes cap-independent translation in mouse and human cells and provides a circRNA-derived effector domain for targeted translational upregulation of an endogenous protein.
Amyloidosis is a disease characterized by the deposition of abnormally folded proteins as amyloid fibrils in tissues and occurs in various mammals and birds. In some cases, amyloids derived from two different precursor proteins may coexist in the same individual, a condition known as double amyloidosis. Amyloid A (AA)...
A first theme concerns the design of green catalytic systems that improve the physicochemical properties of high-value bioactive compounds. The contribution by the group exemplifies this direction through the whole-cell-catalyzed cinnamoylation of phillyrin (Yang et al., 2026). By combining Aspergillus oryzae whole cel...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) regulate stem-cell function, but sustained exposure causes oxidative damage, mitochondrial dysfunction and exhaustion. Multilineage-differentiating Stress-Enduring (MUSE) cells, a rare SSEA-3⁺ MSC subset, tolerate ROS-rich environments, although the mechanisms remain unclear. We compared M...

Soritesidine (SOR) is a potent proteinaceous toxin from the marine sponge Spongosorites sp. that is toxic to mammalian cells, brine shrimp larvae, sea hare embryos, and mice. Although SOR exhibits divalent metal ion-dependent DNase activity, its molecular identity and mechanism of action remained unknown. We determined...
This software provides a Python-based platform for transforming time-resolved experimental data into sound. Initially developed to explore protein-folding dynamics measured using single-molecule optical tweezers, the algorithm is designed to be applicable to a broad range of one-dimensional experimental trajectories an...
Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and related proteinopathies are characterized by the misfolding, aggregation, and accumulation of specific proteins that disrupt neuronal homeostasis, leading to neuronal death. Despite major adva...
The crosstalk between the liver and the lung is complex and not yet fully understood; however, recent studies suggest that metabolic dysfunction, often originating in the liver, can influence lung injury and other lung diseases. The current study investigates the role of bile acids (BA) in mediating lung injury in a mo...
A full characterisation of a molecular system requires its metastable states, their populations and their interconversion rates. Molecular Dynamics can in principle provide this characterisation but is limited by sampling and by force-field inaccuracies. Enhanced sampling addresses the first problem, but typically requ...
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive and molecularly heterogeneous breast cancer subtype. We developed a six-gene oxidative stress-related signature (BAG5, ANXA2, LONP1, GBE1, CBR1, and DDIT4) in GSE58812 (107 patients; 29 deaths) and evaluated its transportability in GSE21653 (83 TNBC patients; 25 dis...
Accumulation of aberrant and unfolded proteins induce cellular stresses and contributes in human to diseases and aging. Several cellular pathways combat the formation of these deleterious molecules. Recently, processes limiting the production of unwanted polypeptides through the co-translational degradation of their me...
Code and per-dataset results for the second revision of manuscript BIOINF-2026-2348 (Bioinformatics). This version adds: (1) the unified-protocol pooling contrast between the random and leakage-free splits with per-dataset paired bootstrap statistics; (2) published ProteinGym v1.3 anchors recomputed per assay on the sa...
Proof of concept for watermarking AI-generated proteins while preserving biological function.
A new machine-learning framework aims to improve the success rate of computational protein design while moving away from results that reproduce sequences found in nature.
Scientists are using AlphaFold to strengthen a photosynthesis enzyme for resilient, heat-tolerant crops.
Explore how AlphaFold has accelerated science and fueled a global wave of biological discovery.
AlphaFold has revealed the structure of a key protein behind heart disease
