PolyProline Predictor: A web server for empirical sequence-based prediction of polyproline II helices. [PDF]
Abstract Polyproline II (PPII) helices are extended left‐handed secondary structures increasingly recognized for their roles in molecular recognition, signaling and within intrinsically disordered regions of proteins. Despite their functional importance, predicting regions with propensity to form PPII helices from sequence alone remains challenging due

RIPK3 Promotes JEV Replication in Neurons via Downregulation of IFI44L
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), the leading cause of viral encephalitis in Asia, is neurovirulent and neuroinvasive. Neurons are the main target of JEV infection and propagation.

A viable kinase-inactive RIPK3 D143N mouse model reveals its scaffold function in driving TNF-induced inflammatory disorder [PDF]
RIPK3 is a key regulator of necroptosis, but the specific roles of its kinase-dependent and -independent functions in disease pathogenesis remain poorly understood.

ORF3 protein of porcine circovirus type 2 induced RIPK3 phosphorylation-driven autophagy to promote viral replication [PDF]
Receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIPK3), a critical regulator of necroptosis and inflammation, has been implicated in modulating viral infections by either promoting host defense or facilitating viral replication.

Ripk3 induces mitochondrial apoptosis via inhibition of FUNDC1 mitophagy in cardiac IR injury
Ripk3-required necroptosis and mitochondria-mediated apoptosis are the predominant types of cell death that largely account for the development of cardiac ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI). Here, we explored the effect of Ripk3 on mitochondrial apoptosis.

Bilirubin directly activates RIPK3 to induce non-classical necroptosis [PDF]
Bilirubin, a byproduct of heme metabolism, is traditionally recognized for its antioxidant properties. However, its accumulation under pathological conditions can result in severe clinical manifestations, including neurotoxicity.

RIPK3 Orchestrates Scar‐Associated Macrophage Dysfunction to Drive Pulmonary Fibrosis [PDF]
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is characterized by aberrant tissue remodeling and immune dysregulation. While receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) is canonically recognized as a central executioner of necroptosis, its non‐necroptotic ...

Structure-Based Virtual Screening of Cinnamic Acid Analogs Against RIPK3: Implications for Anti-Inflammatory Drug Discovery [PDF]
Background: A common oral inflammatory disease known as apical periodontitis (AP) is caused by the intrusion of microorganisms into the dental pulp, resulting in an inflammatory response and bone degradation in periapical tissues.
