ABSTRACT Rationale Non‐reduced trypsin digestion of therapeutic antibodies can generate large disulfide‐linked peptide complexes that exhibit poor chromatographic and mass spectrometric performance. This limits the confident characterization of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) in specific antibody regions, such as the heavy‐chain constant region ...

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

An optimized strategy for the ribosomal synthesis of thioisoindole‐bridged bicyclic (TiB) peptides is incorporated into the RaPID platform, enabling high‐throughput discovery from topologically defined TiB libraries. Proof‐of‐concept selection against TNIK identifies nanomolar‐affinity ligands with inhibitory activity, while x‐ray crystallography ...

Abstract De novo protein design often produces thermostable proteins that denature above 100°C, which complicates the analysis of their stability. Thermostable proteins can be unfolded by combined chemical and thermal denaturation followed by global analysis of multiple melting curves.

We identify four distinct C5 inhibitory epitopes, including two novel antibodies that selectively block membrane attack complex (MAC) assembly while preserving C5 cleavage and C5a generation. These findings establish selective MAC inhibition as a new therapeutic strategy for complement‐mediated diseases.

A Wild Emmer Wheat B3 Transcription Factor Regulates Seed Growth and Nutrient Allocation
ABSTRACT Seed weight (SW) and nutrient allocation are key determinants of yield and grain quality in wheat, yet the regulatory basis of naturally occurring variation in these traits remains poorly resolved. Wild emmer wheat (Triticum dicoccoides), the progenitor of modern wheat, retains extensive eco‐geographically structured genetic diversity that was

Hitting Coronaviruses Where It Hurts: Antiviral Strategies Targeting Viral Proteins
Viral proteins represent key vulnerabilities in human coronaviruses (HCoVs). This review outlines inhibitors targeting spike (S), main protease (Mpro), papain‐like protease (PLpro), and RNA‐dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), mapping chemically diverse strategies that disrupt entry and replication, and provides an integrated view of current candidates ...
