Photocurable Polypeptide and Recombinant-Protein Materials: Sequence, Functionalisation, Folding and Network Attribution

Photocurable recombinant proteins and engineered polypeptides offer sequence-level control that is unavailable in most natural extracts or synthetic polymers. That control is meaningful only if molecular identity, folding state, functionalisation and network formation remain traceable through processing. Chemical modif...

Identification of TMEM263 as an ER-resident protein that controls early stages of lipid droplet biogenesis

It is proposed that TMEM263 can interact with and support the condensation of neutral lipids in a bilayer to promote lipid droplet formation and growth and provide a mechanistic understanding linking these phenotypes to impaired lipid droplet biology.

Symbolic Collapse of the Collatz Sequence via Torsion Energy Inequality

This paper presents a complete symbolic proof of the Collatz Conjecture using the Expansion–Compaction–Torsion (ECT) model. By interpreting the iterative Collatz function as a symbolic parity-driven oscillator, the authors define a torsion-based energy function δ(n) that tracks the expansion (odd steps) and compaction...

For a Drug the Liver Extracts Almost Completely, Blood Flow Sets the Injection and Enzymes Set the Pill ── for a drug with extraction ratio 0.95, halving the liver's enzyme activity raises exposure to an injection only 1.050000-fold while exposure to a pill exactly doubles ── when liver blood flow falls to 70 per cent the roles reverse ── [Paper 591]

It is said that when the liver weakens, drugs act too strongly. What this paper shows is that the same change in the liver acts differently on an injection and on a pill, and that for a drug the liver removes almost completely (high extraction ratio) the injection is governed by liver blood flow and the pill by the liv...

Integrated QTL-seq and transcriptome analyses identify a DUF1677 candidate gene with a Predicted Kelch β-propeller-like fold associated with iron deficiency response in rice

Structural analyses indicated that OsFe2200 adopts a putative Kelch β-propeller-like fold, while additional structural comparisons identified β-propeller- and Kelch-like proteins as moderate confidence homologs, suggesting that OsFe2200 is a structurally conserved but sequence divergent protein.

De Novo Discovery of Cysteine-Targeted Reversible Covalent Cyclic Peptides with Prolonged Residence Time via Phage Display

Reversible covalent targeting of cysteine residues offers a powerful strategy for generating potent and tunable ligands, but designing electrophiles with balanced reactivity, stability, and reversible binding remains challenging. Here, we systematically optimized reversible α,β-unsaturated nitrile electrophiles and i...

Biochemical Studies on Gamma Radiation Effects in Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) Workers

Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are highly sensitive to environmental stressors, including gamma radiation. We evaluated the biochemical responses of adult worker bees to graded gamma-irradiation doses (20, 30, 40 and 50 rad). Total soluble protein content and the activities of key enzymes; superoxide dismutase (SOD), cata...

Hydrophobic Patterns and Folding Thermodynamics-Kinetics in a 2D HP Model

Protein folding is a process in which the linear amino acid chain is transformed into a stable three-dimensional native structure which enables the protein to carry out its function. In several neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (amyloid-β) and Huntington's disease (huntingtin), a pathological me...

SparseDesign: Scaling Exact Coding-Sequence Design

This work proves equivalence to the dense recurrence in real arithmetic, under an explicit scalar branch-interface assumption, and applies candidate sparsification to the multiloop recurrence of a Turner~2004 dangle-0 solver over a weighted codon automaton.

A comparative analysis of graph neural networks and classical machine learning for carbapenem-resistance prediction and genomic interpretation in Acinetobacter baumannii

Introduction Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii is a hospital-associated pathogen linked to high mortality and limited treatment options. Although many resistance determinants have been identified, how they organize into coordinated systems remains unclear. Methods Using a final binary modeling dataset of 2,4...

Diverse structural features and putative functional roles of early-stage Austropuccinia psidii effector proteins

Successive genome improvements reveal that while AP5292 and AP143 remain conserved, AP1260 and especially AP10948 have expanded into highly divergent multi-haplotype families, with AP10948 now comprising 25 tandemly duplicated variants.
