Protein design and RNA design: Perspectives
Abstract Advances in deep learning and generative modeling have transformed the landscape of protein and RNA design, enabling rapid and precise creation of novel biomolecules with tailored structures and functions. In protein design, generative deep learning frameworks now support backbone generation, sequence optimization, and joint sequence–structure

ABSTRACT Background Cachexia, characterized by severe weight loss and muscle atrophy, frequently occurs in chronic conditions such as sepsis, cancer and chemotherapy, with limited effective treatments. Despite similar clinical manifestations, the underlying mechanisms across different disease contexts remain unclear.

The habu genome reveals accelerated evolution of venom protein genes
Evolution of novel traits is a challenging subject in biological research. Several snake lineages developed elaborate venom systems to deliver complex protein mixtures for prey capture.

Nanofibrous Snake Venom Hemostat [PDF]
Controlling perioperative bleeding is of critical importance to minimize hemorrhaging and fatality. Patients on anticoagulant therapy such as heparin have diminished clotting potential and are at risk for hemorrhaging. Here we describe a self-assembling nanofibrous peptide hydrogel (termed SLac) that on its own can act as a physical barrier to blood ...

Abstract Lys49 secreted phospholipase A2‐like proteins (sPLA2s) are major myotoxins in viperid snake venoms, causing rapid muscle damage in envenomation. Beyond their clinical relevance, these small non‐catalytic proteins provide a model to study how quaternary structure and conformational dynamics enable catalysis‐independent membrane disruption ...

NMR solution structure of a chymotrypsin inhibitor from the Taiwan cobra Naja naja atra [PDF]
The Taiwan cobra (Naja naja atra) chymotrypsin inhibitor (NACI) consists of 57 amino acids and is related to other Kunitz-type inhibitors such as bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI) and Bungarus fasciatus fraction IX (BF9), another chymotrypsin ...

ProteinDJ: A high‐performance and modular protein design pipeline
Abstract Leveraging artificial intelligence and deep learning to generate proteins de novo (a.k.a. ‘synthetic proteins’) has unlocked new frontiers of protein design. Deep learning models trained on protein structures can generate novel protein designs that explore structural landscapes unseen by evolution.
