The molecular, metabolic, and clinical aspects of human selenoproteins: a narrative review of the last ten years

Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element required for numerous physiological processes, including antioxidant defense, redox homeostasis, immune regulation, thyroid hormone metabolism, and endoplasmic reticulum function. The biological activities of Se are primarily mediated through its incorporation into selenoprot...

Topological Protection as the Organizing Principle of Threshold-Gated Regulation: From Quantum Integers to Macroscopic Coherence (CMF Paper 3)

The Coherence Maintenance Framework (CMF), established in Papers 1 and 2, demonstrates that threshold-gated regulatory architecture is a universal feature of driven non-linear systems across 29 orders of magnitude in scale. While R_mode = f_pert * tau_relax quantitatively categorizes regulatory dynamics into discrete o...

Systematic discovery of protein kinase-like domains reveals diverse evolutionary strategies in the human oral microbiome

Twenty protein kinase-like (PKL) superfamily families new to this genome collection are identified, demonstrating enzymatic specialization, adaptation specific to pathogens and structural co-option.

Proteome-wide remodelling in Klebsiella pneumoniae during step-wise adaptive evolution against colistin

Short-duration exposure (SDE) of antibiotics is among the major drivers of the emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among bacterial pathogens. Klebsiella pneumoniae is a critical priority bacterial pathogen and rapidly acquiring MDR/XDR traits even against major antibacterial classes of antibiotics. Since colist...

An intranasal bivalent vaccine induces antigen-specific humoral and Th1/Th17 cellular immunity and protects young and aged mice against MRSA and Pseudomonas aeruginosa skin and soft tissue infections

ABSTRACT Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) are ESKAPE pathogens that are responsible for severe skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs), particularly in the elderly and those with immunocompromising conditions. Rising rates of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and carbapenem-resistant PA h...

Microplastics as Emerging Neurotoxins: Brain Accumulation, Neuroinflammation, and Neurodegeneration Risk

ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) have emerged as ubiquitous environmental contaminants with profound implications for human neurological health. Recent landmark findings confirm the bioaccumulation of MPs/NPs in human brain tissue—with concentrations reaching 4917 μg/g in 2024 autopsy samples and up...

The Many-to-One Principle: Erasure as the Universal Substrate of Definiteness, Selection, and Physical Law

We propose that a single information-theoretic operation — the many-to-one map on a physical system's state space, followed by inaccessibility of the discarded alternatives — is the missing universal principle underlying defmiteness, selection, irreversibility, and the emergence of classical structure across every scal...

Solution structure, dynamics and fragment binding of unbound MERS-CoV nsp10

Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV) poses a significant public health threat, with a fatality rate of 37% and no approved therapeutics (World Health Organization, 2026). Non-structural protein 10 (nsp10) is an essential cofactor that activates both the nsp14 3’-5’ exoribonuclease (ExoN) activity req...

Sex Differences in Hepatic VLDLR Response to Protein Restriction and Its Relationship with Hepatic Lipid Accumulation

Background/Objectives: The very low-density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR) mediates VLDL uptake in peripheral tissues. This study investigated sex differences in hepatic VLDLR response to protein restriction and its relationship with hepatic lipid accumulation. Methods: Male and female wild-type (WT) and Vldlr knockout (...

Charge-sign asymmetry in protein crystallization outcomes across 52,307 purified structural-genomics targets (TargetTrack, 2017 release)

Statistical analysis of protein crystallization outcomes in the final TargetTrack release (1 July 2017; 52,307 purified structural-genomics targets across 17 centres, within-centre models). Finding: at equal net-charge magnitude, positively charged proteins are recorded as crystallized less often than negatively charge...
