Summary: HIV-1-negative factor (Nef) protein antagonizes serine incorporator 5 (SERINC5) by redirecting this potent restriction factor to the endosomes and lysosomes for degradation. However, the precise mechanism remains unclear.

Approaches to repurposing reverse transcriptase antivirals in cancer
This review highlights the role of reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibition in cellular regulation associated with non‐terminal repeat retrotransposons and endogenous retroviruses. Based on their pleiotropic characteristics, RT inhibitors (RTIs) are discussed as potential anticancer agents.

Recent findings indicate that mitochondria‐associated membranes (MAMs), where the endoplasmic reticulum directly contacts the mitochondria, are a novel microdomain essential for cellular homeostasis, including proteostasis. We summarize the disruption of protein homeostasis and MAM alteration in neurodegenerative diseases, then discuss challenges and ...

Suppression of cell cycle progression by Jun dimerization protein (JDP2) involves down-regulation of cyclin A2 [PDF]
We report here a novel role for Jun dimerization protein-2 (JDP2) as a regulator of the progression of normal cells through the cell cycle. To determine the role of JDP2 in vivo, we generated Jdp2 knock-out (Jdp2KO) mice by targeting exon 1 to disrupt ...

Compact Origins and Where to Find Them: ORC's Guide to Genome‐Wide Licensing
Origin licensing is a key requirement for any eukaryotic cell to initiate DNA replication in S‐phase. Here, we review the most recent findings in the orchestrated action of the origin recognition complex (ORC) to sequentially load two MCM2‐7 helicases onto DNA with a focus on origin architecture and sequencing‐based methods.

Leveraging Protein Language Model Embeddings for Catalytic Turnover Prediction of Adenylate Kinase Orthologs in a Low-Data Regime [PDF]
Accurate prediction of enzymatic activity from amino acid sequences could drastically accelerate enzyme engineering for applications such as bioremediation and therapeutics development. In recent years, Protein Language Model (PLM) embeddings have been increasingly leveraged as the input into sequence-to-function models.
