Glutaredoxin (Grx) 3 proteins contain a thioredoxin domain and one to three class II Grx domains. These proteins play a crucial role in iron homeostasis in eukaryotic cells. In human Grx3, at least one of the two Grx domains, together with the thioredoxin domain, is essential for its function in iron metabolism.

A Physical Theory of the Competition that Allows HIV to Escape from the Immune System
Competition within the immune system may degrade immune control of viral infections. We formalize the evolution that occurs in both HIV-1 and the immune system quasispecies.

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops
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.

Reprogramming the immune system
Summary:The immune system is organized so as to react to pathogens without risking damage to self. Harnessing those processes that prevent self‐reactivity will have enormous potential in clinical medicine. This review outlines the efforts of this laboratory over the last 25 years to exploit tolerance so as to reprogram the immune system for therapeutic
