Catalysis in Chemical Modification of Proteins
Advancement of catalytic transformations in traditional synthetic organic chemistry have made significant impacts on development of novel bioconjugation technologies. While a wide range of applications have become possible through catalytic protein bioconjugation approaches, there has been a lack of literature collectively reviewing advances of ...

Short amyloidogenic oligopeptides (APRs) are proposed as early macromolecules capable of forming solvent‐separated nanosystems under prebiotic conditions. This study provides experimental evidence that APRs, such as the aggregation‐prone oligopeptide A (APR‐A), can undergo mutational transitions to form distinct variants, and convert to APR‐B, either ...

Abstract The β2AR is a prototypical G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) known to orchestrate different cellular responses by the stimulation of specific signaling pathways. The best‐established signaling pathways for the β2AR are the canonical Gs pathway and the alternative β arrestin 2 (βarr2) pathway.

A G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) functions not only as a monomer or homodimer but also as a heterodimer with another GPCR. GPCR heterodimerization results in the modulation of the molecular functions of the GPCR protomer, including ligand binding ...

Design and Synthesis of Tetrahydropyrrolo[3,4‐c]Pyrazole Sigma‐1 Receptor Ligands
This study highlights the tetrahydropyrrolo[3,4‐c]pyrazole scaffold as a promising platform for S1R ligands development. Key findings include compound 19’s high S1R affinity (Ki=75 nM), influenced by strategic nitrogen substitutions and reduced steric hindrance.

The work presented herein outlines the ongoing structure‐activity relationship (SAR) studies centered around a potent, efficacious, and selective activators of the GIRK1/2 channel. Optimization studies centered around the pyrazole privileged scaffold, the N‐1‐position of the pyrazole and the right‐hand ether.

Ligands can differentially and temporally modulate GPCR interaction with 14-3-3 isoforms
GPCR signaling and function depend on their associated proteins and subcellular locations. Besides G-proteins and β-arrestins, 14-3-3 proteins participate in GPCR trafficking and signaling, and they connect a large number of diverse proteins to form ...

Harnessing Viral Proteases for Cellular and Molecular Engineering
Engineered viral proteases (VIPs) provide programmable control of protein function with high specificity and low toxicity. Integrated with chemogenetic and optogenetic modules, these VIP systems enable logic gate manipulation for targeted regulation of cell signaling, gene expression, protein secretion, and degradation, thereby offering versatile ...
