CD147/Basigin: From Integrative Molecular Hub to Translational Therapeutic Target
This review conceptualizes CD147 as a fundamental “Energy‐Structure Coupler,” physically bridging metabolic flux (via MCTs) with morphogenetic plasticity (via integrins/MMPs) to drive cancer, infection, and autoimmunity. Addressing the “specificity paradox” that limits current translation, the authors chart a strategic roadmap—spanning logic‐gated ...

Crystal Structure of the Cysteine-Rich Domain of Mannose Receptor Complexed with a Sulfated Carbohydrate Ligand [PDF]
The macrophage and epithelial cell mannose receptor (MR) binds carbohydrates on foreign and host molecules. Two portions of MR recognize carbohydrates: tandemly arranged C-type lectin domains facilitate carbohydrate-dependent macrophage uptake of ...

This study identifies Membralin as an ER‐phagy receptor that recruits MAN1B1 and VCP to form a selective ERLAD complex. By sensing dense N‐glycan clusters on viral fusion glycoproteins, this ubiquitin‐independent pathway directs SARS‐CoV‐2 spike, Ebola GP, influenza HA, and HIV‐1 Env to lysosomal degradation, thereby limiting viral infectivity ...

Stereoselective Ferrier‐Type O‐Glycosylation Enabled by Difluoromethylated Glycal Donors
A fluorine‐mediated stereoselective Ferrier‐type glycosylation is reported. Glycals are pre‐decorated with photo‐2‐difluoroalkylation and reacted with diverse acceptors to obtain exclusively α‐selective Ferrier rearrangement products. Abstract The effective construction of structurally homogeneous glycosides is requisite in oligosaccharide assembly and

Mass Spectrometry in the Elucidation of the Glycoproteome of Bacterial Pathogens [PDF]
Presently some three hundred post-translational modifications are known to occur in bacteria in vivo. Many of these modifications play critical roles in the regulation of proteins and control key biological processes.

Achieving Chemical Accuracy in Cyclodextrin Host–Guest Binding via Integrative Atomistic Modelling
A generalizable computational framework is presented that overcomes long‐standing challenges in modelling cyclodextrin host‐guest binding by integrating host‐specific force‐field refinement, equilibrium enhanced sampling, nonequilibrium alchemical switching, convolution sampling of independent works, rigorous finite‐size corrections, and QM‐based ...
