Structure and Biosynthesis of Mangotoxin Produced by the Plant Pathogen Pseudomonas syringae
The structure of mangotoxin remained elusive for over two decades. Here, mangotoxin was isolated from the native producer, Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae, and was determined to be an alkyne‐containing dipeptide. Mangotoxin inhibited the growth of multidrug‐resistant human pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Objective Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchored proteins play critical roles in nervous system function. Pathogenic variants in genes involved in GPI‐anchor biosynthesis cause early‐onset multisystem disorders known as inherited GPI deficiencies. We describe a novel neuromuscular phenotype associated with PIGB deficiency.

High‐resolution proton detection is preserved under cryogenic dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) by combining fast MAS, extensive deuteration and selective methyl protonation. This strategy enables proton‐detected structural studies of biomolecular solids with enhanced sensitivity under DNP conditions.

In Vitro Selection of Functional Neoproteins Containing Highly Fluorinated Cores
The generation of neoproteins—functional proteins containing unnatural amino acids—is a key goal in synthetic biology. We develop a platform to discover neoproteins with specified bioactivity from trillion‐member sequence libraries, using genetic code reprogramming, in vitro selection and microwave peptide synthesis.

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