Quantitative and amino acid sequence analysis of soluble HIV‐1 Vpu and calmodulin interactions
Abstract HIV‐1 Vpu supports viral adaptation through host‐protein interactions. Although mainly membrane‐associated, we recently identified a soluble Vpu form that forms a stable complex with Ca2+‐bound calmodulin (Ca2+–CaM), potentially influencing Vpu trafficking. Here, to determine the binding affinity and identify regions of soluble Vpu involved in

Abstract Eukaryotic proteomes are regulated by the ubiquitin‐proteasome system. Unwanted proteins are tagged with ubiquitin, which is recognized by the 26S proteasome for degradation. To enter the proteasome's 20S core particle and be hydrolyzed into peptides, the substrate must be unfolded and threaded through the 19S regulatory particle.

Synthetic Strategies for the Construction of Cyclobutane‐Fused Heterocycles
Cyclobutane‐fused heterocycles are important motifs commonly present in bioactive compounds, recognized for their rigid 3D structures that confer unique properties. However, synthesizing these compounds remains challenging. This review discusses current methods for their synthesis, such as photochemical, metal‐catalyzed, and Lewis acid‐mediated [2 + 2]

Cyclopropylamines have emerged as powerful photocatalytic building blocks. Upon light‐induced single‐electron oxidation, they undergo strain‐release ring opening to generate distonic iminium radicals that enable diverse transformations, including ring‐opening functionalization, formal [3 + 2] cycloadditions, radical cascades, and asymmetric bond ...
