Nucleotide‐detected solid‐state NMR has been applied to probe nucleotide conformations and dynamics during ATP hydrolysis using the dimeric P‐loop ATPase SmsC as a model protein. The different stages of ATP hydrolysis have been mimicked by ATP analogues for which different degrees of conformational heterogeneity have been observed. ABSTRACT Solid‐state

Virulence of malaria is associated with differential expression of Plasmodium falciparum var gene subgroups in a case-control study [PDF]
Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) is a major pathogenicity factor in falciparum malaria that mediates cytoadherence. PfEMP1 is encoded by approximately 60 var genes per haploid genome.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Development of a Multi‐Organ Microphysiological (MPS) Model to Study Age‐Related Comorbidities
This study developed a human‐based organ‐on‐a‐chip model for the comorbidity of sarcopenia and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The microphysiological system (MPS) co‐cultured skeletal muscle of sarcopenia pathology, cardiomyocytes of HCM pathology, and healthy hepatocytes in a circulated serum‐free common medium.

Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of New 1,4‐Naphthoquinone‐1,2,3‐triazoles as Antimalarial Agents
Compound 9g, a 1,4‐naphthoquinone‐1,2,3‐triazole derivative, exhibited potent activity against P. falciparum 3D7 and in silico analysis revealed strong interactions with 1J3 and 1LDG targets, while MD simulations confirmed the stability of the ligand‐3FGO complex.

Effects of Drug Resistance on the Global Spread of Malaria: A Systematic Literature Review
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Malaria remains a major health crisis in tropical regions, with Sub‐Saharan Africa bearing the heaviest burden. While insecticide‐treated nets and artemisinin‐based combination therapies (ACTs) have reduced cases, emerging parasite resistance to artemisinin threatens these gains. This review synthesizes evidence on how drug
