Host‐Directed Antiviral Activity of SB2960 Through Selective Induction and Remodeling of Stress Granules

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Amid the ongoing threat of emerging viral pathogens, host‐directed antivirals offer a strategy to overcome viral mutation and drug resistance. SB2960, a small‐molecule inducer of stress granules (SGs), exhibits potent broad‐spectrum antiviral activity with minimal cytotoxicity.

Proteogenomic Characterization Reveals Subtype‐Specific Therapeutic Potential for HER2‐Low Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multiomic profiling of HER2‐low breast cancer identifies three proteomic subtypes with distinct therapeutic strategies: endocrine, antiangiogenic, and anti‐HER2 therapies. Genomic and lactate modification landscapes are detailed, providing insights for precise management.

Folding-competent and folding-defective forms of Ricin A chain have different fates following retrotranslocation from the endoplasmic reticulum [PDF]

, 2010
We report that a toxic polypeptide retaining the potential to refold upon dislocation from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the cytosol (ricin A chain; RTA) and a misfolded version that cannot (termed RTAΔ), follow ER-associated degradation (ERAD ...

Ribosome-Inactivating Proteins from Plants: A Historical Overview [PDF]

Molecules, 2016
This review provides a historical overview of the research on plant ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs), starting from the first studies at the end of eighteenth century involving the purification of abrin and ricin, as well as the immunological experiments of Paul Erlich. Interest in these plant toxins was revived in 1970 by the observation of their

Antifungal Activity of Ribosome-Inactivating Proteins

Toxins
The control of crop diseases caused by fungi remains a major problem and there is a need to find effective fungicides that are environmentally friendly. Plants are an excellent source for this purpose because they have developed defense mechanisms to cope with fungal infections.
