Stabilization mechanism accommodating genome length variation in evolutionarily related viral capsids

Nature Communications
Tailed bacteriophages are one of the most numerous and diverse group of viruses. They store their genome at quasi-crystalline densities in capsids built from multiple copies of proteins adopting the HK97-fold.

Elucidation of the binding interaction interface between AAV serotype 11 capsid protein and host nuclear import proteins

Molecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development
Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are widely acknowledged as versatile vectors for gene therapy due to their non-pathogenic nature, inherent capacity for tissue-specific targeting, and their potential for customizable engineering. The N terminus of the AAV

The T‐Cell Response Mechanism in Human Papillomavirus‐Associated Cervical Cancer and New Strategies for Immunotherapy

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a double‐stranded DNA virus that infects human skin and mucosal tissues exclusively. The German scientist Harald zur Hausen was awarded the 2008 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovery of the link between HPV infection and cervical cancer.

Targeting eIF5A combats breast cancer progression by ClpP‐dependent mitochondrial oxidative stress

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This study identified the eIF5A‐ClpP axis as a key driver of breast cancer progression. Targeting eIF5A suppresses tumor growth by inducing ClpP‐dependent mitochondrial oxidative stress, revealing a novel therapeutic vulnerability. Abstract Breast cancer (BC) poses a persistent global health challenge, necessitating new therapeutic targets.

Ion Activation Methods for Top‐Down Proteomics

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mass spectrometry (MS) has emerged as a premier method used to characterize the sequences of proteins. Top‐down proteomics aims to capture the multiple sources of structural diversity reflected in proteins, such as those that arise from alternative RNA splicing events or the addition of post‐translational modifications. Tandem MS (i.e., MS/MS)

Recent Advances (2023–2025) of Capillary Electrophoresis‐Mass Spectrometry (CE‐MS) for Top‐Down Proteomics

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Top‐down proteomics (TDP) characterizes proteoforms in cells, tissues, and biofluids, in discovery mode and on a global scale, requiring analytical tools with high peak capacity for proteoform separation and high sensitivity for proteoform detection, given the extremely high proteoform complexity and wide proteoform concentration dynamic range.

Recent Advances in Top‐Down Proteomics for Single‐Cell Research

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Individual cells have distinctive molecular characteristics, including biologically relevant proteoforms. Although single‐cell (SC) molecular omics offer unprecedented insights into cellular heterogeneity and function, the characterization of proteoforms in SCs remains an uncharted territory.
