Synthetic Strategies for Activity‐Based Probes to Decode Ubiquitin‐Like Modifiers
ABSTRACT Ubiquitin‐like proteins (Ubls) such as SUMO, NEDD8, ISG15, URM1, UFM1, FAT10, ATG8/ATG12, and FUBI are essential regulators of cellular homeostasis, controlling processes from protein stability and trafficking to immune signaling and autophagy.

Synthesis of novel β-aminocyclobutanecarboxylic acid derivatives by a solvent-free aza-Michael addition and subsequent ring closure [PDF]
Novel beta-aminocyclobutanecarboxylic acid derivatives were prepared via a sequential solvent-free aza-Michael addition of benzophenone imine across 3-halopropylidenemalonates and base-induced ring closure.

Chemical Ligation of Backbone N‐hydroxylated Peptides
Peptide backbone N‐hydroxylation enables sequence‐agnostic fragment ligation via hydroxamate O‐acyl capture and O→N acyl transfer in water. Broad tolerance of sterically demanding nucleophilic residues is observed, and reductive N─O cleavage restores the native amide bond.

Bayesian analysis of variable-order, reversible Markov chains
We define a conjugate prior for the reversible Markov chain of order $r$. The prior arises from a partially exchangeable reinforced random walk, in the same way that the Beta distribution arises from the exchangeable Poly\'{a} urn.

Computational approaches to understanding the self-assembly of peptide-based nanostructures [PDF]
The interest in the self-assembly of peptide-based systems has grown significantly over the past 10–15 years, as more and more applications are shown to benefit from the useful properties of the amino acid based monomers.

ABSTRACT Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) represent the most clinically advanced platform for RNA delivery and have enabled major breakthroughs in vaccines and gene therapies. However, their broader application is still limited by inefficient extrahepatic delivery, immunogenicity, and insufficient control over tissue‐ and cell‐specific targeting. This review

Ga and Gß Proteins Regulate the Cyclic AMP Pathway That Is Required for Development and Pathogenicity of the Phytopathogen Mycosphaerella graminicola [PDF]
We identified and functionally characterized genes encoding three G alpha proteins and one G beta protein in the dimorphic fungal wheat pathogen Mycosphaerella graminicola, which we designated MgGpa1, MgGpa2, MgGpa3, and MgGpb1, respectively.

Figure Schematic showing the improvement of almond peptides on learning and memory impairment induced by scopolamine in mice. Almond peptides (APs) could improve the learning and memory in scopolamine‐induced mice by maintaining cholinergic system homeostasis and regulating Nrf2/Keap1 signaling pathway, via activating the Nrf2 transcription factor and ...

Proline cis-trans isomerization and its implications for the dimerization of analogues of cyclopeptide stylostatin 1: a combined computational and experimental study [PDF]
Cis and trans proline conformers are often associated with dramatic changes in the biological function of peptides. A slow equilibrium between cis and trans Ile-Pro amide bond conformers occurs in constrained derivatives of the native marine cyclic ...
