ABSTRACT The knockout strain collection of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has served as a valuable resource for functional genomics and yeast‐based biotechnology studies. A comprehensive single‐gene knockout strain collection, covering nearly all non‐essential genes, together with complementary mutant collections for essential genes, including temperature ...

Omics‐driven drug repositioning reveals pyroxamide as a neuroprotective HDAC1 inhibitor in Parkinson's disease models. Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder mainly characterized by the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons originating in the substantia nigra (SN) pars compacta and projecting to other ...

Amylin analogues as a novel perspective in anti‐obesity therapy
Abstract Public health systems face a major challenge because of the worldwide obesity epidemic. The number of obese individuals has increased dramatically and, even in Switzerland which may be considered a relatively “lean” country, the numbers are alarmingly high and have reached almost 50% of the adult population.

Background and purpose Pathogenic aggregation and propagation of seed‐competent TAU assemblies drive tauopathies. MAPT P301 mutations accelerate aggregation and enhance seed competence, yet pharmacological strategies selectively targeting these pathogenic species remain limited.

Abstract The instability of anthocyanins limits their application as natural food colorants. This study aimed to enhance the stability of anthocyanins extracted from Hibiscus sabdariffa through copigmentation with protein nanofibrils produced from pea, rice, gluten and whey isolates. Linear and curly nanofibril structures were prepared and incorporated

Constrictions and shear stress are key determinants of amyloidogenic light chain (AL) amyloidosis
In this study, we investigate how flow constrictions and shear stress trigger cardiac antibody light chain (AL) fibril formation and deposition. We mimic the mechanical forces exerted by the heart and the microvasculature network using a mini‐peristaltic pump setup and a grid‐type microchannel network, respectively.

As we age, cells gradually accumulate damage, which can contribute to disease and neurodegeneration. This review explores how two cellular recycling processes, mitophagy and nucleophagy, remove damaged mitochondria and nuclear material, respectively, to maintain cell health and long‐term neuronal homeostasis.

Toward a minimal amino acid alphabet for protein design
Proteins are built from 20 canonical amino acids; however, it is interesting to investigate whether they can also be formed from reduced amino acid alphabets. Using protein design, we designed proteins based on all alphabets comprising 2 to 10 ‘early’ amino acids (those likely to have been present before the origin of life).

RNA and DNA viruses can manipulate host cell death through various mechanisms. RNA viruses (H1N1, SARS‐CoV‐2) induce acute apoptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis to promote rapid viral transmission and epithelial barrier damage. In contrast, DNA viruses (HSV‐1, EBV) regulate these mechanisms to sustain a lytic‐latency cycle, evade immune response and ...

Lipid droplets (LD) act as cellular ‘garbage trucks’ that transport cytosolic protein aggregates to the vacuole for degradation in yeast. Protein aggregates are docked to lipid droplets in a triacylglycerol‐dependent manner, transported through the cytoplasm, and transferred to the insoluble protein deposit (IPOD) at the vacuole.
