FusionPDB: a knowledgebase of human Fusion Proteins
Nucleic Acids Research, 2023 Abstract Tumorigenic functions due to the formation of fusion genes were targeted for cancer therapeutics (i.e., kinase inhibitors). However, many fusion proteins are still awaiting being targeted for therapeutics in diverse cellular working mechanisms.

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.
