SIRT1 deacetylates GAPDH to drive microglial glycolysis and neuroinflammation.

SIRT1–GAPDH signaling represents a post-translational axis linking sirtuin activity directly to glycolytic enzyme function, distinct from SIRT1's traditional transcriptional roles and serving as a viable molecular checkpoint in microglial immunometabolism.

Structural and Mechanistic Perspectives on SARS-CoV-2 Nonstructural Protein 14-Mediated Cap Formation and Drug Discovery

Structural and biochemical studies have elucidated the architecture of the nsp14 N7-methyltransferase domain, revealing an S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM)-dependent fold with a defined cofactor-binding site and an adjacent cap-binding pocket that orients the RNA substrate for methyl transfer.

Circulating miR-1-3p precedes adrenarche and modulates adrenocortical steroidogenesis via protein kinase C signaling.

The temporal decline of circulating miR-1-3p levels and the identification of PKC support a model in which miR-1-3p may contribute to functional maturation of the ZR through modulation of non-canonical intracellular signaling pathways.

Off-Manifold Collapse in Guided Protein Language Models

A cheap density prior is introduced over natural protein activations and keeps only the candidates that remain typical under it, a training-free post-hoc step the authors call Mahalanobis filtering that improves both the property score and the structural plausibility of the sequences it keeps at negligible cost, withou...

Structural basis for the procoagulant activity of Staphylococcus aureus staphylocoagulase

3D models of the C-terminal SC region suggest that the major C-terminal domain of SC folds into a single-layer β-sheet structurally similar to the membrane occupation and recognition nexus (MORN) family of tandem repeats, which is critical for understanding SC-mediated fibrin generation.

Boosting foam ferformance of egg white protein: synergy between supercritical carbon dioxide and sucrose for superior freeze-thaw stability

This study investigated the synergistic effects of supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCD) combined with sucrose treatment on the foaming properties and freeze-thaw stability of egg white protein (EWP). The results demonstrated that SCCD-sucrose treatment significantly enhanced the foaming capacity, achieving a maximum...

The Integrin Signature of Ankylosing Spondylitis: Divergent Regulation of CD29 and CD49b in HLA-B27-Positive Cohorts in Iraqi Patients

A divergent regulation of CD29 and CD49b integrins associated with HLA-B27 status in Iraqi AS patients is suggested and longitudinal validation is required to confirm their clinical utility as diagnostic or therapeutic targets.

Differential anti-microbial properties between the burying beetle Nicrophorus quadripunctatus and the short sexton beetle Necrodes littoralis.

This study provides the first comparative transcriptomic, structural, and functional characterization of AMPs and anti-microbial proteins in N. quadripunctatus and N. littoralis, offering important foundational insights for the future development of bacteria-specific AMPs as alternatives to conventional antibiotics.
