Structure and Function of a Multi‐Megadalton Virus‐Like Proteolytic Dodecahedron

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Zuzalysin, a virulence metallopeptidase of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, is secreted as a latent, flexible ≈95‐kDa monomer. Calcium triggers cysteine‐switch activation and hierarchical assembly into pentamers, bipentamers, tripentamers, and a ≈5.6‐MDa, ≈355‐Å dodecahedron. Structures at 1.8–3.6 Å reveal a virus‐sized catalytic cage

Ac‐SDKP modulates apoptosis via HSP27 and the FAS/FASL and mitochondrial axes

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram of Ac‐SDKP regulating the FAS/FASL and mitochondrial apoptosis pathways via HSP27. Ac‐SDKP inhibits HSP27 expression, activates the FAS/FASL pathway and Caspase‐3 signaling, increases Caspase‐8 and Caspase‐3 expression, and induces cell apoptosis.

A Comprehensive In Vitro Approach for Assessing the Physiological Degradation of Medical Implants: The Silkothane Arteriovenous Graft Case Study

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Evaluating the degradation of absorbable medical devices in vitro demands physiologically relevant conditions. This study presents a comprehensive framework applied to a three‐layered silk fibroin/polyurethane arteriovenous graft, employing human enzymes at physiological concentrations over 6 months. Multiparametric analyses of both graft structure and

A Ruthenium(CAAC‐5) Olefin Metathesis Catalyst for Bioconjugation

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
The aqueous instability of ruthenium catalysts restricts olefin metathesis in biological media. A Ru(CAAC‐5) complex bearing an aniline handle is reported that remains active under biologically relevant conditions and enables bioconjugation to proteins, peptides, and an artificial metalloenzyme, providing a robust platform for olefin metathesis in ...
