Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Heat shock protein A1L restricts influenza A virus by ubiquitination of NA
Neuraminidase (NA) protein of influenza A virus (IAV), a tetrameric envelope glycoprotein critical for viral release and spread, has well-characterized enzymatic functions but poorly resolved host-pathogen interactions.

Damage-induced phosphorylation of Sld3 is important to block late origin firing. [PDF]
Origins of replication are activated throughout the S phase of the cell cycle such that some origins fire early and others fire late to ensure that each chromosome is completely replicated in a timely fashion.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Coronaviruses (CoVs) hijack host RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) to facilitate their replication, but the viral proteins and host RBDs that participate in the synthesis of viral RNA and protein are unclear.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) nonstructural 5A (NS5A) protein is a critical factor for HCV RNA replication. Here the authors show that SCOTIN, an interferon beta-inducible host protein, functions to limit HCV replication by targeting viral protein NS5A for ...

The respiratory syncytial virus nucleoprotein–RNA complex forms a left-handed helical nucleocapsid [PDF]
Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is an important human pathogen. Its nucleocapsid (NC), which comprises the negative sense RNA viral genome coated by the viral nucleoprotein N, is a critical assembly that serves as template for both mRNA synthesis and ...

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Uncovering Flavivirus Host Dependency Factors through a Genome-Wide Gain-of-Function Screen
Flaviviruses, such as dengue (DENV), West Nile (WNV), yellow fever (YFV) and Zika (ZIKV) viruses, are mosquito-borne pathogens that present a major risk to global public health. To identify host factors that promote flavivirus replication, we performed a
