Metal ion chelation of poly(aspartic acid): From scale inhibition to therapeutic potentials
Poly(aspartic acid) (PASP) is a biodegradable, biocompatible water-soluble synthetic anionic polypeptide. PASP has shown a strong affinity and thus robust complexation with heavy and alkaline earth metal ions, from which several applications are ...

Porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV) infection induces severe intestinal inflammation and acute diarrhea in piglets, yet the molecular mechanism remains incompletely understood. The M protein activates NLRP3 inflammasome through dual mechanisms: direct binding to the NLRP3 LRR domain and disruption of TRIM31‐mediated K48‐linked ubiquitination.

A non‐invasive periodontitis diagnosis platform was developed using Au nanoparticles‐decorated mesoporous Cr2O3 (Au@mCr2O3) particles with Schwarz P surface as matrix for saliva metabolic fingerprinting (SMFs) analysis via MALDI‐MS. With the assistance of machine learning of SMFs, this platform enables efficient diagnosis and the screening of potential

Extracellular aspartic protease SAP2 of Candida albicans yeast cleaves human kininogens and releases proinflammatory peptides, Met-Lys-bradykinin and des-Arg(9)-Met-Lys-bradykinin [PDF]
Bradykinin-related peptides, universal mediators of inflammation collectively referred to as the kinins, are often produced in excessive amounts during microbial infections.

A Generative Neuro‐Symbolic AI for Protein Sequence Design
We introduce EffieDes, a neuro‐symbolic framework coupling deep learning‐based fitness landscape parameterization with exact automated reasoning. Unlike greedy sampling, EffieDes identifies sequences that globally optimize fitness while satisfying intricate design constraints.

A supramolecular pyroptotic thermal switch encapsulates I3− within β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD) and undergoes CaCO3 mineralization. Upon lysosomal acidification, CaCO3 is degraded, releasing Ca2+ and I3−. Concurrently, BODIPY activation converts I3− into I2, inducing oxidative stress and Ca2+ overload, which together trigger caspase‐3/GSDME‐mediated ...

Aspartic Acid Residue 51 of SaeR Is Essential for Staphylococcus aureus Virulence
Staphylococcus aureus is a common Gram-positive bacteria that is a major cause of human morbidity and mortality. The SaeR/S two-component sensory system of S. aureus is important for virulence gene transcription and pathogenesis.

Cancer‐Associated BCL‐2 Mutants Reveal Mechanisms Towards Venetoclax Resistance
Venetoclax (VEN) resistance in chronic lymphocytic leukemia arises from diverse BCL2 mutations. We map mechanisms contributing to VEN resistance across common BCL‐2 variants. G101V and D103Y reduce drug binding and increase sequestration of pro‐apoptotic proteins. V156D blocks VEN allosterically.
