Disassembly of intact multiprotein complexes in the gas phase

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 1999
The observation of multiprotein complexes by mass spectrometry formerly relied upon chemical cross-linking to maintain interactions. Recent technological developments have enabled the observation of intact macromolecular complexes without modification.

Ligand‐driven modulation of chaperone–cochaperone networks shapes proteostasis outcomes

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Protein homeostasis depends on a delicate interplay between folding and degradation, orchestrated by molecular chaperones. Among them, Hsp90 is a central hub, regulating nearly 10% of the proteome through ATP‐driven conformational cycles and selective interactions with cochaperones.

Proteolytic control of mitochondrial protein translocases

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Mitochondria are essential organelles that drive numerous cellular processes, including energy metabolism, ion homeostasis, and programmed cell death. This functional versatility relies on a highly dynamic proteome whose composition is continuously remodeled to meet changing cellular and environmental demands.

Alphafuser: a parsimonious approach to predicting higher‐order protein complexes

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 421-433, May 2026.
Alphafuser is a structure‐prediction pipeline that integrates experimental interaction data with AlphaFold‐based modeling to systematically assemble multiprotein complexes in a computationally efficient manner. By implementing an ipTM‐based pruning algorithm and validating against known structures and experimental assays, Alphafuser enables the ...

Elucidating R‐gene‐mediated resistance to wheat dwarf virus in Triticum aestivum genotypes

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 3, Page 947-961, May 2026.
This study investigates R‐gene‐mediated resistance to wheat dwarf virus (WDV) among different wheat genotypes. Following inoculation with Psammotettix alienus (leafhoppers) and the subsequent appearance of characteristic symptoms such as yellowing and dwarfing, phenotypic responses were evaluated alongside molecular analyses, including quantification ...

Human Cyclophilin B forms part of a multi-protein complex during erythrocyte invasion by Plasmodium falciparum

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Invasion of red blood cells by Plasmodium falciparum is a complex process and relies on several receptor-ligand interactions. Here, the authors show that human cyclophilin B binds Plasmodium surface protein PfRhopH3 and that interruption of this ...

First‐In‐Human Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of VENT‐02 Freebase, a CNS‐Penetrant NLRP3 Inhibitor

open access: yesClinical and Translational Science, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The NLRP3 inflammasome is a central mediator of innate immunity and a key driver of inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. VENT‐02 is orally bioavailable, central nervous system‐penetrant, selective small‐molecule inhibitor of NLRP3. This first‐in‐human, randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled study assessed the safety, tolerability,

Molecular Mechanism of Caspase‐8–Dependent Interleukin‐18 Activation in Pancreatic Cancer Cells Induced by 5‐Fluorouracil and Nutrient Starvation

open access: yesGenes to Cells, Volume 31, Issue 3, May 2026.
Nutrient starvation triggers pyroptosis with cleavage of pro‐IL‐18 and GSDMD in pancreatic cancer cells, and treatment of 5‐FU enhances this process. As a result, active IL‐18 is released and leads to inflammation. ABSTRACT Interleukin‐18 (IL‐18) is a pro‐inflammatory cytokine, and higher IL‐18 expression in pancreatic tumors is associated with poor ...

The Role of NLRP1, AIM2 and MEFV Inflammasomes in the High‐Intensity Interval Training of Individuals With Obesity

open access: yesImmunology, Volume 178, Issue 1, Page 109-117, May 2026.
This study shows that 8 weeks of high‐intensity interval training (HIIT) modulate inflammasome‐related gene expression in individuals with obesity. HIIT increased AIM2, MEFV, CARD16 and CARD18 expression, with CARD16 upregulation supporting reduced inflammation through inhibition of caspase‐1 activation and lower IL‐1β levels.

SORBS2: A Molecular Nexus in Multisystem Diseases Through Scaffold‐Mediated Regulation

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Sorbin and SH3 Domain Containing 2 (SORBS2), a multifunctional scaffold protein harbouring Sorbin homology (SoHo) and Src homology 3 (SH3) domains, serves as a molecular hub in human diseases by integrating cytoskeletal remodelling, signal transduction and RNA metabolic regulation. This study systematically analyses SORBS2's molecular features,
