ViralFP: A webserver of viral fusion proteins [PDF]
Viral fusion proteins are attached to the membrane of enveloped viruses (a group that includes Coronaviruses, Dengue, HIV and Influenza) and catalyze fusion between the viral and host membranes, enabling the virus to insert its genetic material into the host cell.

Molecular Mechanisms Regulating Cell Fusion and Heterokaryon Formation in Filamentous Fungi
For the majority of fungal species, the somatic body of an individual is a network of interconnected cells sharing a common cytoplasm and organelles.

Cell-cell fusion as a mechanism of DNA exchange in cancer
Cell-cell fusion describes the process by which two cells combine their plasma membranes and become a single cell, possessing and retaining certain genetic information from each parent cell.

Upregulation of surface feline CXCR4 expression following ectopic expression of CCR5: implications for studies of the cell tropism of feline immunodeficiency virus [PDF]
Feline CXCR4 and CCR5 were expressed in feline cells as fusion proteins with enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP). Expression of the EGFP fusion proteins was localized to the cell membrane, and surface expression of CXCR4 was confirmed by using a ...

Ultrastructural plasma membrane asymmetries in tension and curvature promote yeast cell fusion. [PDF]
Cell-cell fusion is central for sexual reproduction, and generally involves gametes of different shapes and sizes. In walled fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the fusion of h+ and h- isogametes requires the fusion focus, an actin structure that ...

Direct transfer of learned behaviour via cell fusion in non-neural organisms
Cell fusion is a fundamental phenomenon observed in all eukaryotes. Cells can exchange resources such as molecules or organelles during fusion. In this paper, we ask whether a cell can also transfer an adaptive response to a fusion partner.

Efficacy of Selpercatinib in RET Fusion-Positive Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer.
BACKGROUND RET fusions are oncogenic drivers in 1 to 2% of non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs). In patients with RET fusion-positive NSCLC, the efficacy and safety of selective RET inhibition are unknown. METHODS We enrolled patients with advanced RET

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

Cell-Cell Fusion Mediated by the Fusion Protein of Ebola Virus [PDF]
Despite the large number of infections caused by Ebolavirus (EboV), a model system for fusing cells expressing the EboV fusion glyprotein (GP) to target cells has not been developed. We have now done so. Cells expressing GP fused to target cells at neutral pH without any explicit enzymatic treatment; acidification of external solutions augmented the ...
