Automated Bacterial Identification and Morphological Feature Analysis in Low‐Dose Cryo‐EM Using YOLOv11

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
AI‐based tools enable rapid characterization of bacterial ultrastructure in low‐dose cryogenic transmission electron microscopy. The envelope thickness tool quantifies membrane thickness and anisotropy. The flagella module analyzes filament morphology and detects cell‐flagella contacts.

Supramolecular Assembly of an Antimicrobial Peptide Into a Pore

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Supramolecular assembly of an AMP is linked to transport across the Staphylococcus aureus membrane. ABSTRACT Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have long been ascribed the ability to form pores. These structures, some observed, others inferred, vary in their mechanisms of action, though most are associated with lysis.

A mouse model of mechanical stress injury to the basal ganglia using thermosensitive PNIPAM hydrogel for intracerebral hemorrhage research

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this study, we established a novel mouse model of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) by stereotactically injecting thermosensitive PNIPAM hydrogel into the internal capsule to impose localized mechanical stress on the corticospinal tract, which provides a straightforward and reproducible tool for preclinical studies on focal mechanical stress–induced ...

Molecular Glue Degraders of TEM β‐Lactamases by Periplasmic Protease DegP

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Molecular glues are developed that target TEM‐family β‐lactamases to the bacterial protease DegP for degradation. β‐Lactamase inhibitor tazobactam is identified as accelerating TEM β‐lactamase degradation by DegP, which is further enhanced by linkerless incorporation of dipeptides enriched among DegP substrates.

Synthetic Particulate Subunit Vaccines Co‐Delivering Multiple Antigens Induce Protective Immunity Against Melioidosis

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Engineered endotoxin‐free Escherichia coli were used to assemble poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) biopolymer particles displaying multiple conserved Burkholderia pseudomallei antigens via PhaC‐mediated surface presentation. Following formulation with poly(I:C), the particulate vaccines induced antigen‐specific humoral and cellular immune responses ...

Structure and Function of a Multi‐Megadalton Virus‐Like Proteolytic Dodecahedron

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Zuzalysin, a virulence metallopeptidase of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, is secreted as a latent, flexible ≈95‐kDa monomer. Calcium triggers cysteine‐switch activation and hierarchical assembly into pentamers, bipentamers, tripentamers, and a ≈5.6‐MDa, ≈355‐Å dodecahedron. Structures at 1.8–3.6 Å reveal a virus‐sized catalytic cage

Beyond Nature's Blueprint: Macrocyclic Peptides Containing Unnatural Amino Acids in Therapeutic Development

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Strategic incorporation of unnatural amino acids transforms macrocyclic peptides into drug‐like molecules capable of engaging challenging targets. These building blocks enhance stability, permeability, and bioavailability, accelerating the development of next‐generation peptide therapeutics.
