Performance of pyDock in 8th CAPRI: Energy‐Based Scoring Applied to Docking and AlphaFold Models

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 8th CAPRI edition has shown a significant evolution in the field of protein–protein complex structure prediction. We have participated in all 11 targets proposed in this edition, involving domain‐domain, protein–protein, protein‐peptide, and protein‐DNA interactions, including homo‐ and hetero‐meric interfaces.

Bioinformatics‐Driven Design and Evaluation of Recombinant Multi‐Epitope Immunogens Derived From Snake Venom Toxins as Potential Antivenom Candidates

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Snakebite envenomation is a major public health concern, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income regions where access to safe and effective antivenoms is limited. Traditional antivenoms, derived from immunization with crude venom, often trigger adverse reactions and lack specificity against key venom components.

Diagnostic antibodies at an inflection point: From discovery platforms to design‐oriented engineering

VIEW, EarlyView.
This study systematically organizes the evolution of diagnostic antibodies from discovery platforms to design‐oriented engineering and analyzes the strengths and limitations of each approach. Meanwhile, it provides a critical, literature‐driven synthesis of current challenges, proposing integrated strategies for assay‐aware and function‐driven antibody

The effect of Staphylococcus aureus carriage in late pregnancy on antibody levels to staphylococcal toxins in cord blood and breast milk. [PDF]

, 2008
We investigated the effect of carriage of Staphylococcus aureus in the later stages of pregnancy on levels of antibody specific to the S. aureus toxins, staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB), staphylococcal enterotoxin C (SEC) and toxic shock syndrome toxin-

The 3D genome of Gigaspora margarita unveils stable chromatin and nucleolar organization and symbiont‐dependent genome dynamics

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are widespread plant symbionts that enhance nutrient acquisition and influence ecosystem productivity. Previous chromosome‐level assemblies of the model species Rhizophagus irregularis revealed a two‐compartment genome architecture (active A and repressed B chromatin compartments), yet its conservation across ...

Detection of Clostridium tetani Neurotoxins Inhibited In Vivo by Botulinum Antitoxin B: Potential for Misleading Mouse Test Results in Food Controls

Toxins, 2018
The presence of botulinum neurotoxin-producing Clostridia (BPC) in food sources is a public health concern. In favorable environmental conditions, BPC can produce botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) outside or inside the vertebrate host, leading to ...
