Artificial Receptor in Synthetic Cells Performs Transmembrane Activation of Proteolysis
Advanced Biology, EarlyView.Transmembrane signaling is the hallmark of living cells and is among the highest challenges for the design of synthetic cells. Herein, an artificial receptor based on the chemistry of self‐immolative linkers is used to communicate information across the lipid bilayer, for transmembrane activation of enzymatic activity. Abstract The design of artificial,

Mucus Physically Restricts Influenza A Viral Particle Access to the Epithelium
Advanced Biology, EarlyView.The infectious potential of respiratory viruses depends on their ability to navigate through a layer of mucus that serves as a protective barrier in the lung. It is demonstrated that influenza A virus penetration through mucus is significantly limited by the gel's internal microstructure and, to a lesser extent, by adhesive binding to mucin glycans ...
