Disease-specific tau polymorphs are associated with unique protein networks across proteinopathies

It is demonstrated that conformationally distinct tau polymorphs associate with disease-specific interaction networks across Alzheimer's disease, progressive supranuclear palsy, and dementia with Lewy bodies, providing molecular insight into tauopathy heterogeneity.

Leveraging generative hallucination and biophysics-informed modeling for unified biomolecular sequence-structure co-design

MCTH (Monte Carlo Tree Hallucination), an inference-only framework that casts all-atom sequence-structure co-design as uncertainty-aware planning over hallucinated states from pretrained folding and inverse-folding models, with optional biophysical control within the same decision loop is introduced.

Oligomerized receptor binding domain blocks pan-sarbecovirus infection via enhanced avidity to host receptor.

HRBD demonstrated potent and broad-spectrum inhibition against Pangolin-CoV, SARS-CoV, SARS-CoV, SARS-CoV-2, and its variants, lowering the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) by approximately 1000-fold compared to the monomeric RBD.

Direct Visualization of Orientation Competition in Protein Epitaxial Crystallization.

In situ atomic force microscopy is used to reveal the two-dimensional crystallization dynamics of streptavidin on muscovite mica with single-molecule resolution, establishing a paradigm of domain coarsening in biomolecular epitaxy, providing a solid foundation for the rational design of functional bio-nano interfaces.

Lab-on-a-chip device with an integrated surface acoustic wave micromixer for enhanced porous silicon biosensor performance

Porous silicon (PSi) biosensors offer significant potential for point-of-care diagnostics, yet their analytical performance is constrained by slow analyte diffusion into the porous matrix. To address this issue, we developed a lab-on-a-chip (LOC) device that combines a PSi immunosensor with a surface acoustic wave (SAW...

Activation of ER stress mediated by HspB4/Cryaa reduction contributes to photoreceptor apoptosis in rd9 mouse model of X-linked Retinitis Pigmentosa

Results identify Cryaa as a critical regulator of ER stress and demonstrate that its reduction promotes UPR activation and subsequent photoreceptor apoptosis in the rd9 model, revealing a key role for Cryaa in XLRP pathology and may provide a novel therapeutic perspective for this disease.

Deep Learning‐Driven Discovery and Engineering of an Efficient PETase for Depolymerization and Detoxification of PET Microplastics Under Physiological Conditions

ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) accumulation in ecosystem and human organs poses urgent environmental and health risks, yet few enzymes efficiently degrade polyethylene terephthalate (PET) under physiological conditions. We leveraged deep learning to mine unexplored sequence space across 246 million proteins, discovering...
