Digesting the crisis: autophagy and coronaviruses

open access: yesMicrobial Cell, 2020
Autophagy is a catabolic pathway with multifaceted roles in cellular homeostasis. This process is also involved in the antiviral response at multiple levels, including the direct elimination of intruding viruses (virophagy), the presentation of viral ...

Coronaviruses: SARS, MERS and COVID-19

open access: yesKorean Journal of Clinical Laboratory Science, 2020
Coronaviruses were originally discovered as enzootic infections that limited to their natural animal hosts, but some strains have since crossed the animal-human species barrier and progressed to establish zoonotic diseases.

Motor Evoked Potentials Improve Targeting in Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives One of the main challenges posed by the surgical deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedure is the successful targeting of the structures of interest and avoidance of side effects, especially in asleep surgery. Here, intraoperative motor evoked potentials (MEPs) might serve as tool to identify the pyramidal tract.

3‐Deoxy‐3‐Fluoro Mannuronic Acid Alginates: Stereoselective Automated Synthesis and Conformational Behaviour

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The impact of C‐3 fluorination on the synthesis and conformation of alginate oligosaccharides is investigated. A C‐3‐fluoro mannuronic acid building block is generated and shown to react with high β‐selectivity. Automated glycan assembly enables access to uniquely fluorinated mannuronic acid alginates where deoxyfluorination is shown not to perturb the

Targeting Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Spike Fusion Machinery With Antiviral Peptides: In Silico Exploration of the Heptad Repeat 2 Domain. [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiologyopen
Griffithsin, Brevinin‐2, and CCL20 were identified as potent MERS‐CoV fusion inhibitor candidates targeting the HR2 domain through integrated molecular docking, MD simulations, and MM/PBSA analyses. These peptides demonstrated superior binding stability and favorable safety profiles compared to the standard inhibitor, supporting their potential as ...
