Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

Loop33 × 123 CAR-T targeting CD33 and CD123 against immune escape in acute myeloid leukemia
Cancer Immunology, ImmunotherapyBackground Immunotherapy, such as chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells targeting CD33 or CD123, has been well developed over the past decade for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the inability to sustain tumor-free survival and

Integration of circadian and hypoxia signaling via non‐canonical heterodimerization
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.CLOCK, BMAL1, and HIFs are basic helix‐loop‐helix and Per‐Arnt‐Sim domain (bHLH‐PAS) proteins, which function as transcription factors. bHLH‐PAS proteins are designated in two classes. Many class I proteins are regulated by environmental signals via their PAS domains, but such signals have not been identified for all.

Differential contribution of TFE3 isoforms to cell motility and invasion
EMBO ReportsTFE3 orchestrates cellular responses to a variety of stress conditions, promoting restoration of cellular homeostasis and cell survival. Here we report the presence of two different TFE3 isoforms generated by the use of alternative transcription ...

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...
