The rapid advancement of AI has greatly boosted the efficiency of large‐scale lead compound screening, especially for proteins without resolved 3D structures in the PDB. However, current large structure databases cannot support efficient large‐scale screening within drug R&D cycles. Here, we propose a multistrategy c...

The Membrane-Associated Proteins in Eicosanoid and Glutathione metabolism (MAPEG) superfamily comprises integral membrane proteins involved in lipid metabolism, detoxification, and redox regulation. While extensively characterised in eukaryotes, bacterial MAPEG homologs remain poorly understood. In this study, we condu...

This work defines the contacts that maintain WDR44 in its closed conformation and provides a mechanism by which pathogenic mutations may alter WDR44 function, which explains how disease-causing mutations activate WDR44, and defines the surfaces through which its functions are likely regulated.

Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are the gateways for macromolecular exchange between the nucleus and cytoplasm. Although NPC architecture is broadly conserved across eukaryotes, substantial lineage-specific diversification has emerged, particularly among divergent protists. Here, we investigated the NPC of Entamoeba hist...

Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem in the medical field, which requires the development of alternative medicines to treat patients with bacterial infections. Bacteriophage endolysin proteins such as N74 have been shown to target Bacillus cereus as well as Bacillus anthracis (anthrax). This study aims to charact...

Existing biological nanopores are often too narrow to accommodate large proteins and biomolecular complexes in their native folded states, precluding the analysis of megadalton assemblies. Here, we report the self-assembly of the cholesterol-dependent cytolysin Perfringolysin O (PFO) into stable transmembrane nanopores...

Abstract Insufficient tumor accumulation and heat shock protein (HSP)-mediated adaptive resistance remain major barriers to effective cancer therapy. Here, a cysteine-inspired conjugated polymer photosensitizer (CP-PCys) was developed to integrate enhanced tumor accumulation, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) generation, photodyn...
