Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

High-throughput assessment of vocal modulation following chemogenetic inhibition in songbirds

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Chemogenetic tools that enable reversible manipulation of neuronal activity are essential for studying the neural bases of behavior, yet their application in songbirds remains limited.

Soft motions encoded by the fold and mediated by conserved hinge sites drive V‐ATPase allosteric machinery and autoinhibition

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Vacuolar H+‐ATPase (V‐ATPase) is a multisubunit rotary proton pump that acidifies intracellular compartments. Using elastic network models, we identified conserved hinge residues that govern its large‐scale functional motions. We show that intrinsically encoded ‘soft modes’ drive critical functional transitions, including rotary catalysis and ...

Patient-derived rhabdomyosarcoma cells recapitulate the genetic and transcriptomic landscapes of primary tumors

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in childhood and adolescence. The availability of appropriate and well-characterized preclinical models for RMS is limited, posing a challenge for investigating the molecular ...

Unlocking the potential of cell‐permeable nanobodies for intracellular applications

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review outlines current strategies for delivery of nanobodies into cells and highlights recent examples of functional applications. By addressing and manipulating intracellular targets, these molecules hold great potential for treating cancer, respiratory diseases and neurological disorders, making this a vibrant area of research in the biomedical

Data collection from literature for biological sciences, medicinal plants research, ethnobotany, and pharmacology: a methodological overview

open access: yes
 Writing a comprehensive review article in biological sciences, ethnobotany, or pharmacology requires a systematic approach to data collection. This involves defining search strategies, identifying relevant databases, establishing inclusion/exclusion criteria, and assessing study quality. Knowing how to collect data effectively is crucial for producing

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.
