Scientific ReportsHepatitis C virus (HCV) is a plus-stranded RNA virus that often chronically infects liver hepatocytes and causes liver cirrhosis and cancer. These viruses replicate their genomes employing error-prone replicases. Thereby, they routinely generate a large ‘

Characterization of RNA content in individual phase-separated coacervate microdroplets
Nature Communications, 2022 Here, the authors demonstrate that single cell RNA sequencing technology can be leveraged to characterize RNA content of individual membrane-free condensates formed by liquid-liquid phase separation processes such as coacervation.

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Computational and Structural Biotechnology JournalRNA-protein interactions (RPIs) are crucial for accurately operating various processes in and between organisms across kingdoms of life. Mutual detection of RPI partner molecules depends on distinct sequential, structural, or thermodynamic features ...

Seasonality of endemic COVID-19
mBio, 2023 Successive waves of infection by SARS-CoV-2 have left little doubt that this virus will transition to an endemic disease. Foreknowledge of when to expect seasonal surges is crucial for healthcare and public health decision-making.

Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...
