Endowing Flexibility of Alveolar Type II Cells to Recapitulate Development From Lung Bud to Alveoli
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Adult human alveolar type 2 cells are chemically reprogrammed into expandable alveolar progenitor‐like cells that acquire bud tip‐like features during expansion and form organoids that mature into alveolar‐like structures. These organoids model influenza A virus infection and innate immune responses in vitro, while transplanted cells engraft ...

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A chemoenzymatic methodology is described that provided a panel of 6‐sulfo sialyl Lewisx‐containing glycans that were probed for receptor specificity of MERS‐CoV. Although the fucoside of 6‐sulfo‐SLex does not directly interact with the spike, it pre‐organizes the molecule into a conformation to allow a salt bridge between the sulfate and the ...

LectinOracle: A Generalizable Deep Learning Model for Lectin–Glycan Binding Prediction
Advanced Science, 2022 Ranging from bacterial cell adhesion over viral cell entry to human innate immunity, glycan‐binding proteins or lectins are abound in nature. Widely used as staining and characterization reagents in cell biology and crucial for understanding the ...

Recent insights into structures and functions of C-type lectins in the immune system
Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2015 Highlights • Sugar-binding C-type carbohydrate-recognition domains fall in five structural groups.• Structures for many of these domains, covering all of the groups, have been obtained.• Not all human C-type lectins have clear orthologues in other ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The IgLec gene family generates both protein‐coding antiviral effectors and non‐coding transcripts. Upon viral infection, non‐coding transcripts are preferentially targeted by viral miR‐N48, thereby buffering protein‐coding isoforms from repression. Depletion of these decoy transcripts compromises antiviral defense, revealing a non‐coding RNA‐mediated ...

CD112 Lactylation Drives Dual Immune Evasion From CD8+ T Cells and NK Cells
Advanced Science, EarlyView.AARS2 functions as an intracellular lactate sensor and lactyltransferase, catalyzing CD112 K412 lactylation to block ubiquitination‐dependent degradation and stabilize CD112. This pathway suppresses CD8+ T‐cell and NK‐cell cytotoxicity, enabling dual immune evasion.

A systems approach to analyzing bacterial glycans and glycan-binding proteins [PDF]
, 2008 textCarbohydrates are prominent and accessible polymers found on the cell-surface and represent the first interface with the extracellular environment. The enormous diversity of cell-surface carbohydrates is recognized as a high-density coding language ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Checkpoint‐directed glycoengineering installs sialylated ligands on the donor vascular lumen during ex vivo preservation, creating a localized Siglec‐7/9‐engaging interface. The engineered glycocalyx suppresses immune‐cell activation, complement deposition, and microvascular injury in arterial and kidney allografts while preserving endothelial ...
