Automatically Defining Protein Words for Diverse Functional Predictions Based on Attention Analysis of a Protein Language Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Understanding protein sequence–function relationships remains challenging due to poorly defined motifs and limited residue‐level annotations. An annotation‐agnostic framework is introduced that segments protein sequences into “protein words” using attention patterns from protein language models.

Exploring the role of multi-pathogen infections in Alzheimer’s disease: A case–control study

Virulence
Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a leading cause of dementia. Following the discovery of the amyloid’s antimicrobial properties, research has focused on infectious agents as potential contributors. This study investigates the role of multi-pathogen

Peroxidase‐Mimicking Nanozymes for Rapid Detection of Infectious Diseases

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Peroxidase‐mimicking nanozymes (PMNs) have emerged as robust and versatile materials for rapid infectious disease diagnostics. This review highlights the rational design and controlled synthesis of PMNs, summarizes key biomarkers relevant to infectious diseases, examines their integration into diverse rapid detection platforms, and highlights ...

A rational strategy to optimize photodrugs by Molecular Dynamics simulations for killing drug‐resistant Gram‐negative bacteria

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Antimicrobial resistance has become a major threat to human health, particularly for Gram‐negative bacteria such as Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Disruption of membrane integrity is regarded as a promising antimicrobial strategy that does not induce distinct drug resistance, while increasing the internalization of drug ...

Accelerating Primary Screening of USP8 Inhibitors from Drug Repurposing Databases with Tree‐Based Machine Learning

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This study introduces a tree‐based machine learning approach to accelerate USP8 inhibitor discovery. The best‐performing model identified 100 high‐confidence repurposable compounds, half already approved or in clinical trials, and uncovered novel scaffolds not previously studied. These findings offer a solid foundation for rapid experimental follow‐up,

Machine Learning‐Enhanced Random Matrix Theory Design for Human Immunodeficiency Virus Vaccine Development

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This study integrates random matrix theory (RMT) and principal component analysis (PCA) to improve the identification of correlated regions in HIV protein sequences for vaccine design. PCA validation enhances the reliability of RMT‐derived correlations, particularly in small‐sample, high‐dimensional datasets, enabling more accurate detection of ...

The intersection of health inequalities and COVID‐19: Evidence from National Health Insurance Big Data in South Korea

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Health inequalities persist along lines of income and wealth, shaped by unequal access to healthcare, differences in health behaviors, and pre‐existing chronic conditions. The COVID‐19 pandemic further put families in Korea under health strain and worsened their health outcomes.

Genetic predisposition to porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder: A functional genomic‐based, multigenerational family study

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
A deleterious variant of FCHSD1 results in mTOR pathway overactivation and may cause porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder (PSVD). The pedigree of the family demonstrated an autosomal dominant disease with variable expressivity. Whole‐genome sequencing and Sanger sequencing both validated the existence of the FCHSD1 variant and the heterozygosity of c ...
