Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Ion transport through biological channels

Contributions to science, 2015
The transport of ions across single-molecule protein nanochannels is important both in the biological context and in proposed nanotechnological applications. Here we discuss these systems from the perspective of non-equilibrium physics, and in particular, whether the concepts underlying the physics of diffusive and electrokinetic ...

Biological and technical complexities in analyzing extracellular vesicle immune interactions in B‐cell malignancies

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate intercellular communication in tumor immune microenvironments. However, their role in B‐cell malignancies remains poorly defined, owing to biological complexity and technical challenges in EV isolation and analysis.

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

Improvements in the utilization of calcium carbonate in promoting sustainability and environmental health

Frontiers in Chemistry
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is an incredibly abundant mineral on Earth, with over 90% of it being found in the lithosphere. To address the CO2 crisis and combat ocean acidification, it is essential to produce more CaCO3 using various synthetic methods ...

From omics to AI—mapping the pathogenic pathways in type 2 diabetes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Integrating multi‐omics data with AI‐based modelling (unsupervised and supervised machine learning) identify optimal patient clusters, informing AI‐driven accurate risk stratification. Digital twins simulate individual trajectories in real time, guiding precision medicine by matching patients to targeted therapies.

Thermostable neutral metalloprotease from Geobacillus sp. EA1 does not share thermolysin's preference for substrates with leucine at the P1′ position

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Knowing how proteases recognise preferred substrates facilitates matching proteases to applications. The S1′ pocket of protease EA1 directs cleavage to the N‐terminal side of hydrophobic residues, particularly leucine. The S1′ pocket of thermolysin differs from EA's at only one position (leucine in place of phenylalanine), which decreases cleavage ...

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

A physical derivation of high-flux ion transport in biological channel via quantum ion coherence

Nature Communications
Biological ion channels usually conduct the high-flux transport of 107 ~ 108 ions·s− 1; however, the underlying mechanism is still lacking. Here, by applying the KcsA potassium channel as a typical example, and performing multitimescale molecular ...
