Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Drugs Based on de novo-developed Peptides are Coming of Age
Naturally evolved peptides, such as the hormone oxytocin or the anti-bacterial vancomycin, have seen decades of success as powerful therapeutics due to many of the favorable properties of peptides.

Disruption of SETD3‐mediated histidine‐73 methylation by the BWCFF‐associated β‐actin G74S mutation
The β‐actin G74S mutation causes altered interaction of actin with SETD3, reducing histidine‐73 methylation efficiency and forming two distinct actin variants. The variable ratio of these variants across cell types and developmental stages contributes to tissue‐specific phenotypical changes. This imbalance may impair actin dynamics and mechanosensitive

The role of TRPA1 channels in thermosensation
Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) is a polymodal nonselective cation channel sensitive to different physical and chemical stimuli. TRPA1 is associated with many important physiological functions in different species and thus is involved in ...

Gastrointestinal endogenous proteins as a source of bioactive peptides : Doctor of Philosophy in Nutritional Sciences at Riddet Institute, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Gastrointestinal endogenous proteins (GEP) were investigated as a source of bioactive peptides. In silico and in vitro methods were used singly or in combination to study GEP-derived peptides after simulated digestion.

PEP-FOLD3: faster de novo structure prediction for linear peptides in solution and in complex
Structure determination of linear peptides of 5–50 amino acids in aqueous solution and interacting with proteins is a key aspect in structural biology. PEP-FOLD3 is a novel computational framework, that allows both (i) de novo free or biased prediction ...
