Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Uma discussão de oposições binárias nos Functional Requirements for Subject Authority Data (FRSAD)
RESUMO Como são poucos os estudos brasileiros que assumem declaradamente seus posicionamentos sobre as biases, este artigo propõe-se a apresentar uma discussão crítica sobre as biases na representação de assunto a partir dos Functional Requirements for ...

The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...

Tackling inter-subject variability in smartwatch data using factorization models
Smartwatches enable longitudinal and continuous data acquisition. This has the potential to remotely monitor (changes) of the health of users. However, differences among subjects (inter-subject variability) limit a model to generalize to unseen subjects.

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP
FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...

The role of miR‐335‐5p in the redifferentiation of BRAF p.V600E thyroid cancers
The BRAF p.V600E mutation promotes thyroid cancer dedifferentiation and radioiodine resistance. Using a network approach, we identified miR‐335‐5p as a key regulator of BRAF‐mutated thyroid tumors. Restoring miR‐335‐5p increased thyroid‐specific gene expression and iodine uptake in cells and organoids.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Multiple Optima in Identification of ARX Models Subject to Missing Data
Special system identification algorithms are required if there are significant amounts of data missing. Some such algorithms have been developed previously and typically result in iterative procedures for the parameter estimation. Since missing data can
