The hand of molecular mimicry in shaping SARS-CoV-2 evolution and immune evasion remains to be deciphered. Here, we report 33 distinct 8-mer/9-mer peptides that are identical between SARS-CoV-2 and the human reference proteome.

In searching for life in extraterrestrial space, it is essential to act based on an unequivocal definition of life. In the twentieth century, life was defined as cells that self-replicate, metabolize, and are open for mutations, without which genetic ...

Epitopedia: identifying molecular mimicry between pathogens and known immune epitopes
Upon infection, foreign antigenic proteins stimulate the host's immune system to produce antibodies targeting the pathogen. These antibodies bind to regions on the antigen called epitopes.

COVID-19 and molecular mimicry: The Columbus’ egg?
Highlights • Recently, this Journal published a report about Guillain-Barré syndrome associated with COVID-19 infection.• Guillain-Barré syndrome can be due to molecular mimicry phenomena.• Molecular mimicry had already been described in another SARS ...

More than symbioses : orchid ecology ; with examples from the Sydney Region [PDF]
The Orchidaceae are one of the largest and most diverse families of flowering plants. Orchids grow as terrestrial, lithophytic, epiphytic or climbing herbs but most orchids native to the Sydney Region can be placed in one of two categories.

T-loop phosphorylation of Arabidopsis CDKA;1 is required for its function and can be partially substituted by an aspartate residue [PDF]
As in other eukaryotes, progression through the cell cycle in plants is governed by cyclin-dependent kinases. Phosphorylation of a canonical Thr residue in the T-loop of the kinases is required for high enzyme activity in animals and yeast.

Fresh Insights into Disease Etiology and the Role of Microbial Pathogens. [PDF]
Pathogens have been implicated in the initiation and/or promotion of systemic sclerosis (scleroderma, SSc); however, no evidence was found to substantiate the direct contribution to this disease in past years.
